Thank you so much for the feedback, Jenna! You’re right about the front page: I used to have recent posts on the front page too, but I received lots of negative feedback from first-time visitors, who complained that they had no clue where they were when they landed at the blog. So this made me change it to a static front page with a brief introduction as to what the blog is all about. Happy blogging to you! 😉

If you need inspiration, simply look at how some of the best villains and monsters have been created. Most of them are… how to put it.. menacing? Devious? Hell, some of them don’t even talk. Their background (like degrees etc) tends to matter less than what they actually do in the story. Then if their background is important, what they do later is linked to what’s happened to them in the past.

Hi Lewis,
Is the “Paradox” something you’re writing? I have to be honest, I didn’t read anything in depth because it seemed like so much to take in, and I was jumping from one page to another because I was trying to figure out if you’re writing about a book that someone else wrote, or one that you wrote…an “About” page would be most useful 🙂

Hello! I’m trying to become a bit more involved here so I thought it would be valuable to drop in for some feedback on my blog, which is focused on travel. I have two questions:
1. It seems that I am using very few widgets compared to most blogs. I don’t have them on the main page because I’d prefer it to be full-width. However, I was wondering if people thought it would be useful to include more widgets on my pages, and if so, which ones might be most valuable?
2. Despite getting good feedback from family and friends, I tend to feel quite apprehensive about my writing. Sometimes I feel as if it might be a bit too abstract, though at the same time I’m trying to avoid narratives of “I traveled here and did this” – I want to reach beyond that since most of my posts are reflections. If anyone has time and wants to give feedback on my last few posts and whether they think they’re not too difficult to relate to or grasp, I would appreciate it!
Here’s my blog: http://wentlooking.com/

Regarding general appearance and writing: I would agree with Mara Eastern than your blog is visually appealing as it is, and that your writing seems rather personal, and is interesting as a result. I found a few things I would possibly change, but those are tonal and preferential to my way of putting things, so perhaps it isn’t even worth bringing them up? (Mainly thinking some of the paragraph structure in seem a little odd to me. The sentence seems as though it should be part of the paragraph before it rather than a paragraph of its own, but again, it may just be a matter of nit-picking based on personal preferences.)
Regarding widgets: My initial reaction is to say you need a sidebar, but don’t go crazy with widgets; however, part of what makes your site so visually appealing is its simplicity. You have adequate navigation at the top, and adequate explanation in the posts and pages of your site. Despite my love of the sidebar, to add more to your site would potentially ruin the simplistic beauty that your site currently possesses.

Thank you so much for the detailed comment! I really appreciate you taking the time to look through my blog a bit.
With regard to the writing style, a lot of times I’m just judging by what feels right to me at the moment, but looking back at the example you mentioned I can now see it going either way. I’ll keep paragraph structure in mind moving forward, and try to be a bit more deliberate.
I really do like having a simple layout, not to mention full width shows off my photos a bit better. I’m glad you find that there is adequate navigation – I was afraid I was missing something!
Again, thanks for the comment!

I am not a big fan of the “website style” of blog, where you drop into a home page that never changes, and then have to search for your content. When I go to a blog, I expect to see content – at least recent posts or excerpts. Because I don’t really know what your content is about, I’m more likely to get involved if I can see some of it. I’m more likely to get pulled into something I want to read, then find something else, and something else, etc. That may help your traffic, too.

The story is titled, Where The Popsicles Are, and while I know it still needs some work, and I have had an editor give it a first look. Basically, in this narrative, I’m attempting to show how Joanie dealt with the medical issues, and what I learned about being a caregiver over those years. I’m hoping that anyone who reads it might get an idea of who she was, and how she dealt with the disease over those years, and in the telling of her story and what I learned, I might learn something about myself as well.
