We can only do so much in a day, and some things fall off. It's easy to become a stataholic, isn't it. I try real hard not to waste too much time on those. Hi Ricardo,

It’s easy to become a stataholic, isn’t it. I try real hard not to waste too much time on those.

I try not to worry too much about the stats but I can't help myself. I mean c'mon, if it wasn't for my readers, I don't think my content would matter (and that's just it...I WANT it to matter). Anyway here's my typical day: - Check e-mail & respond to comments (if anyone is new to the site I usually send out an introductory e-mail to tell them how I appreciate that "anyone" is listening) - Check Stats: I only check my stats after I look at my e-mail for any comments. I try and be observant of who's reading what. In other words, what posts tend to stand out more. - Work on New Posts: from there I go to brushing up any drafts that I have saved up. Currently I only manage to stay 1-3 posts ahead. I'd feel much more comfortable if I could do more so that I can adhere to a consistent posting schedule. But alas, you never know when inspiration will strike so I do what I can. - Visit Regular Blogs: there are certain blogs that are my favorite. I visit them frequently...sometimes I comment, sometimes I don't. But I"m reading them every day. I only try and comment if I have something constructive to say. - Social Networks: I don't participate as much as I used to in this area. I used to author an different blog and participated much more in these... There ya have it. That's a rough sketch of what some of my blogging consists of. I think I"ll leave it at that (I'd hate for my comment to take up half the page, LOL).

Decreasing to two posts a week would free up more time, and I know with you having a family, that's important. Hi Vered,

I tend to write several posts once a week and pre-date them. The rest of the workweek, I spend about 2 hours per day reading other blogs + commenting +stumbling, and another half an hour reading and answering blog-related emails. I check my stats once a day. I publish 3 posts per week and am considering going down to 2 per week. It's VERY important to me to find the right balance between blogging and other activities.
