In conversation with a good friend, and what came up was a question which was worth asking:
What stops you from supporting my work? Or engaging with me on here?
It sounds awful doesn’t it? However, in my defence, a writer wants to be read. If you’re a parent, it relates to that combination of intense protective instinct and also narcissistic validation but without the raw biological wonder of it.
Still, no one owes me anything. However, there’s a few of you out there and whether you’re reading or not, 1300 plus people is a good crowd. The analogy of a gig comes to mind, I’m on stage and in front of the microphone. (Good writing is a lot like burlesque but that image is too distracting) and I’m wondering who’s listening. Who goes home and posts they enjoyed it or it sucked.
Indulge me, if you’d be so kind.

For me, I have been having the problem that posts are not showing up in my reader consistently. So, like I read every post of yours that I see. I can’t speak for anyone else. But that’s me. I only follow people that I actually like and read.

Same here. I wasn’t aware of the issues with the reader.

Yeah. It’s one that seems to sort of come and go with WordPress.
