I comment back so slowly but I love comments and discussions with my blogger friends so yay for at least being able to do that! I think having some books in common works and I'm like you - I read pretty much every genre so we will probably click somewhere along the line.Olivia's Catastrophehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706765857201768908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-47765668413811514522018-08-24T22:24:09.934-06:002018-08-24T22:24:09.934-06:00I love this!

I actually changed the colors to my blog because I felt like they were too light, I still do but I can't afford to revamp right now. <br /><br />I try really hard to keep posts under 1000 words but I sometimes go over.

In fact, I often have wondered about whether or not I should completely redo my theme to make the colors easier to read. That sounds like work, however. XD <br /><br />My posts are typically REALLY close to 1000 words. I try desperately to keep it under, but I struggle. Any tips? Because I'd love to figure out a way to shorten my posts for readability!

And I have comment guilt too. But I think a lot of bloggers understand when their comments don't get instant replies too. We all have lives. As long as it isn't talking to a wall like you said.

My own web site doesn't use captcha and is black text on a white background. The social media buttons are on the top of each page. I post once a day, unless I'm doing a weekly meme or one of my road narrative essays. Then I post twice a day. My reviews tend to run at about 250 to 500 words. pussrebootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02167235847991793325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-79638976993369255352018-08-19T21:37:43.393-06:002018-08-19T21:37:43.393-06:00I agree!

What I hate is those blogs with a lot of falling objects/effects and has a lot of images! eeeeep I used to follow a few blogs like that and they had awesome content, but I unfollowed due to their blog format and design :(<br /><br />I also try to comment back as much as possible.

I also tend to have trouble with blogs that have fireworks or snowflakes all over the page.

In fact I am going to link this post on my next wrap-up!<br /><br />There is a book blogger whom I connected with on Twitter before she had a blog and I loved her and was excited when she said she was going to start a blog, but her font was light green on a medium green background. I couldn't read it. People were commenting so obviously I was the odd person out. I felt bad. 😞La La in the Libraryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18253014225202985934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-7168784745375959572018-08-18T07:31:32.171-06:002018-08-18T07:31:32.171-06:00This is a list of rules that all bloggers should f...This is a list of rules that all bloggers should follow.

"I’m lazy and have a lot of blogs to read"<- I should put this in my blog description lol.<br /><br />There has been the occasional blog where I'd visit and comment a few times, but never got any reply or return visit so I'd just stop visiting them. It is like talking to a wall at that point.<br /><br />And starting up conversations is the best part of blog posts. It's nice to get a discussion going.<br />Enjoy your weekend and happy blogging :)The Bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10217390642323530030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-75919353395176598352018-08-18T03:04:45.883-06:002018-08-18T03:04:45.883-06:00Yes yes yes yes yes to everything on this post, I ...Yes yes yes yes yes to everything on this post, I agree with everything here.

I love it when I get acknowledged and get an answer, even if it's days or weeks later, that doesn't matter. Like you said, I'm also here to be part of a community and not to talk to a wall either haha :) Lovely list! <3 <3Marie @ Drizzle and hurricane Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01305855207183517613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193309628838073849.post-54840623228301254982018-08-17T10:07:36.097-06:002018-08-17T10:07:36.097-06:00The fonts for sure.
