You look a lot like my younger sister.  Mind you, both of my parents were born in England.  Maybe there is an English look, eh?   However, I'll finish this off by saying the similarity doesn't change your uniqueness and there is only one Symphony

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think writers prefer to be read rather than have answers to their comments.

SYMPHONY, I do read you back. Right now I just don't have a lot of time for reading and commenting. But just you wait til I get back home. I have not forgotten you.

Sometimes, we are just in the same league as another so they don't read us back. I can forgive some who have valid reasons.

I'm guilty of not reading much.
But I don't read many people at all....I just read really slowly and it takes me so long to catch up.  So, I don't get to do it much.  I gave up trying a long time ago, so I lost a lot of readers.  I'm happy that you always read my poetry though.  Thank you for that.

Hey symphony,

I am one of that person, sometimes just don't leave a comment.

posted by Riverside on September 23, 2005 at 6:04 AM | link to this | reply

Symp-I agree with u. It is only right to acknowledge a comment and to
comment back as well.  While I seldom read anyone who hasn't left me a comment, I will occasionally as we all have a few favorites.  I do not gush and go crazy over a poem if it is an obvious dog, but will acknowledge it if the person has commented on my work.  As far as quality, I am happy if two or three of my weeks normal writing of five or six poems is a keeper.

I am the same, I do like to leave comments even simple ones where ever I go, but sometimes if I am busy...I just read silently.....but I prefer the first way

I tend to spend
most of my time trying to read others and leaving some comment - even if it's something simple like this one. I know I appreciate it to know people have read my stuff.

posted by fionajean on September 23, 2005 at 12:54 AM | link to this | reply

I do spend time reading and commenting.
and sometimes it seems as if I am wasting my time...though a lot of times I learn something or laugh or cry so maybe my time is well spent anyway.

posted by Whacky on September 22, 2005 at 9:54 PM | link to this | reply

Yes that's exactly the way it works...
and I'm guilty as charged. I do come around, but I don't always leave a comment.

i read you more than you know, because sometimes i just can't think of anything to comment on what you've written. i guess i'd like to know more about those who read and don't comment, but maybe if they spoke what they thought i might want them to continue reading the old way. oh, well.

posted by avant-garde on September 22, 2005 at 5:26 PM | link to this | reply

Symphony,

I'm guilty!!! I spend more time reading than commenting lots of time, then I spend more time commenting and not reading everyone I should. Bad! Bad Shadow!

Yeah, its hars to consistently follow up comments, and such.
Especially with this thing called reality. Thanks for stopping by!

Sorry
I do read your blogs but I often forget to comment but from now on I will send a short note so that you know I have read them.

I'm guilty
Sorry SYMPHONY. I honestly read you quite a bit, I just don't always comment. Sometimes I just don't know what to say, and other times I just want to read everything without having to comment about it.

You write a lot of valuable information to bloggers. I didn't get blogging either for a long time. I just blundered along. I love hearing from you. BB

I always read you, my favorite wood nymph...
but I don't always comment. I get lazy and just read everyone I like. Sometimes I'm just frickin antisocial !

Don't feel bad...
I know I didn't get it at first, took a bit for me to realize.  I try to leave a mark that I was there, as it drives me insane when I see someone stopped by.   Creative types, I know I have way too many insecurities, so I try not to do it to others.  Thanks for the post.

I do the same, I read you but do not comment.....it is because I never really know what to say (I don't speak my opinon often) and if I just left a smiley...then I would get accused of not reading properly....so it is safer this way.

haven't commented on you in weeks!

Yesterday I kind of said the same thing I'm about to say here. I enjoy the comments because I think the key to successful blogging, whatever your idea of success might be, is to build relationships. Even if I don't make a lot of money, by having the relationships, blogging is a lot of fun and something I look forward too.

 Flower I would read you anyway but its still nice to see your name on my comments page. It would take me all day to really read all the posts.

I try to always read those that have left comments

Though I may not always leave comments based on time or other distractions.
