blgging career
this is the first time I read you and you do write well, but yes it does take the right headline to catch the eye of the bloggers and maybe I haven't learned either to write well or write a good headline.

I reread the
comment in question. I think it was a light barb and nothing to be taken seriously. For a newcommer it is sometimes difficult to find one's feet. I recall that I misunderstood an "oldies" comment. Fortunately we cleared the air and now I am an avid reader of her post. I am so glad I did as I would have missed out on so much. Anyway she did come and apologise. So please carry on writing.

If you are using this time to connect with people you know and appreciate, and it is the stability in your life while you adjust to your new surroundings, then it is not 'nothing.' Judgments exist because of inaccurate or incomplete information. I think you are a great writer, personally.

Julia,
Mygoodness...you're writing is much more than nothing! That's one to just brush off...

You are a wonderful writer! I have my suspicions that "fluff," which is a hot topic I had forgotten about, doesn't really exist, but even if it did, you don't write it. I find your posts always interesting. Knowing how to get people to read your posts isn't a crime, although since we are all competing for a limited pool of clicks I suppose that accusals are bound to crop up.
I think it would be amusing to one day write a catchy title and then write nothing in the body of the post. Literally. Leave it blank. Then post a comment saying, "this is writing nothing. Now you know and can stop bothering other people."

Nonsense...
don't let comments like that get to you. Look at how many bloggers like reading your stuff and see how popular you are. I like variety and that is what you get here on Blogit. But we can't like everybody or be interested in every blogger's post you know....

Ariala has been doing it for years without apologizing to anyone.
It's your dime...write whatever you feel like writing and block those who insult you.

Julia, don't even think about leaving. I enjoy everything you write and many other bloggers do too. I think that's obvious by the many comments you get. Just don't let it bother you. Chalk it up to an unexperienced blogger.
KEEP ON BLOGGIN!

I don’t think there are any “rules” as to what people should write in here. (And more power to you if you’re able to attract reader). Some blogs are fluff, some of it is spiritual, some of it is light and brightens our day, and some of it is heavy and makes us think. Without the contrast, it would be pretty dull in here. I enjoy the variety.

Julia, you misunderstood.
I didn't meant that. You are reading too much between the lines, where nothing exists. I am sorry if I hurt you in any ways. By the way, new bloggers must learn from you how to take forward posts. See, again little spin to a comment worked!

I fully enjoy you (your posts). So, don't even think more
of that comment. It's not true.

That blogger obviously hasn't read more than that one post!
Don't let his/her comment bug you! You don't "write nothing"! The majority of your posts are deep and full of substance! I, for one, wouldn't read you religiously if you were only fluff!

Sometimes it's really hard to try to read between the lines of what
people are really trying to say. Who knows. Don't let it bother you.

hahahaha, it takes talent to write about nothing! But no, you do include
substance, and balance it out with writing fluff at times.
