Here’s the third of my nominated bloggers for the Writing Process Blog Tour. Leah of The Lobster Dance did not disappoint, talking through her process of research-grounded geekery.
Honestly, I should do more research in my blogging. I often have to go the opposite route – put on blinders, research nothing, and make posts that are entirely opinion and hearsay based. This is the burden of blogging on a schedule, I suppose.
Anyway, check it out, and thanks for keeping the chain going, Leah!

I ran this poll in a post recently, but I thought I would highlight it and see if I could get more responses. Please vote if you are interested!
I think that Meme Monday is not going very far. It does not get many views, or likes, or comments. The memes, once shared on Tumblr, tend not to go very far (though a few have gotten a few likes and reblogs). Overall, it’s work for not much result. And I have succeeded at the initial test with my Features: I have worked them into my weekly flow, I have increased the number of posts on the site, and people are reading/viewing/interacting with the posts.

So I am thinking a new Feature for Monday, thus the poll! Let me know what you would like to see from the blog, here, and I’ll see what I can’t do to deliver!

I like enjoying these small milestones, to remember how much we have accomplished in this time! 475 posts, and consistently posting 6 posts a week, has been a lot of work, and very rewarding. Thank you to all of you, our readers and commenters and followers and friends.
Last year at the six-month mark, I did a post highlighting our top posts and topics thus far. Many of those posts are still top posts, because they keep getting search engine hits. However, we have a few new contenders top posts that I would like to highlight – beyond the Illuminati post I referenced the other day.
Then I thought I would share a few of the posts that have barely been touched. Sure, there’s a lot of those – and a lot of them make sense. There’s our failed Trailer Watch category – those never did well. And there are…
