My First Post on My Shiny New Blog!

This post is the result of a lot of persistence and foolhardy cheapskatery. I’d love to have input from everybody. Is it navigating well? Does it show up on your phones or other devices? Is it fast or slow? If you have a few minutes, click around and see if it goes where it’s supposed to go. Do the social media buttons work, the contact forms? That pesky RSS feed that I don’t fully understand (please, somebody click on that RSS button and tell me if it’s working right?)

Do you like its look and feel? Is it easy to find stuff?

I would love to hear any comments, suggestions, etc. that you have in the comments below (or you can click on the handy contact form and contact me that way).

And if in your wanderings around this blog, you’d like to like me on Facebook or follow me on Twitter (which I’m a total newbie to) or have a look at my Goodreads page or anything else, that would be awesome too.

Hello! This is my first comment here so I just wanted to
give a quick shout out and tell you I genuinely enjoy reading
through your posts. Can you suggest any other blogs/websites/forums that deal with
the same subjects? Thanks!

Looks like gray lettering is better everywhere but here on Comment

Hmmm. Darn it. I’ll see if I can change it. Mine comes up gray, but not super light.

Alright. The lettering is now dark. Wahoo. The box itself is still not dark. Is that a problem?

RSS feed button is what?

Under “Connect With Me” it’s that orange button. If you click on it, it should allow you to get notifications about my feed. Of course, that should also work if you fill in the “Subscribe” section.

Sorry, I can’t help with that either. However, as I’m replying, I see the grey text above “your email address will not be published” is overlapped with the red “cancel reply”. Also, below there is a check box displayed above the text ” Notify me of follow-up… ” and the other check box is at the end of the line “Notify me of new posts by email.” So something’s messed up. I’m mobile on an Android. I’m also having trouble clicking on the name/email/website fields… Could be personal ineptitude or my janky phone or something… Ah, personal ineptitude wins out. I was clicking beside the title and I needed to click below. That’s where non-grey text/boxes would have helped me out. Otherwise I personally like the grey text and general feel.

You’re right. The letters also overlap on my phone. Arg. And that gray lettering will be the death of me. I tried to figure or how to fix it yesterday but couldn’t. Some tech support might be in order.

Print is light gray. When I typed for Get Updates very light gray. Older eyes like more contrast. Like the Pic & your pic too!

I agree. It’s one of my blog pet peeves. Not sure how to change it, but going to try to find out.
