For me, the authentic voice is really important in reading other blogs - I can source information lots of other ways, the thing that bloggers offer is their invididual experience and thoughts about those facts.

Posting my photos is really what drives my blog, and lately I haven't had as many to share (busy schedule at the time) and I know that's a big factor in my blogging slump. LOL. I'll get back to it. Thanks for your acknowledgement here, Cate, it really encourages me to keep blogging. :o)Deb @ PaperTurtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00957816023851249171noreply@blogger.com
