Guess what? I don’t comment back to people on my blog. I email them. Do I have some great blogging philosophical reason? Nope! I do it because with my comment system mixed with WordPress I can just hit reply in my email and it goes to the commenter.

Granted, I don’t reply to every single comment. Sometimes, I simply don’t have the time. I care about each one, because that person took time to do it. But if someone seems to really have resonated with me on something, has a question or a problem to solve, or whatever, I email them back. In fact, I’ve made a lot of my online friendships that way.

So please know, that when you don’t see comments from me on my blog – I’m not unresponsive to my readers. I just do it a little less publicly. I like it to be more personal. Once someone comments, I like to take it to a more personal conversation.

In addition… I WILL comment publicly if I need to. Not to trolls – they simply get deleted. But people who may be heated or have a different opinion may need to be responded to publicly as the situation calls for it. You never know.

There, I feel better now.
