The Weird Way I See Blogging

I have been wanting to blog about this topic for a long time. THE BLOG. The experience I have as a blogger or the weird way I see it. 

I have been blogging on Long Shot for just over a year now, and I have never had one person comment, except my husband and that doesn't count. In many ways, to me this blog is a diary. I can say whatever I want, because as I see it no one reads it. Yet people do, because I have that funny thing we all like trampling around in, analytics! 


Yep, people read it, or at least they click on it. Not sure which is the most true. Here I am the one writing so many crazy post, and the way I feel is, it's a diary to me. I think that is because, no one comments. I have no interaction with others. Therefore its just me talking to SPACE. Now I am okay with this. The one thing I know is that once you have interaction, you are really fucked. Cause then you have to spend more time in a platform, and no one has more time.

Right now I have it made. I can say whatever I want and I piss no one off. I can blog about any secretes and have no worries, no one will read it. I have so much freedom because no one comments on my post. Truly this is a heaven for me. 

When I started my first startup, I thought that the email did not work because I never received any emails. As my startup grew, I started getting emails, and still to this day that startup email account gets saturated with emails. It's overwhelming, it's crazy, it's a time sucker, and it's a dead startup.

If no one comments on my blog post, to me that is a super time saver! If you comment, then I will be obligated to respond. Sure I would be delighted to respond, and I would respond. Yet, right now I am in the beautiful area of blogging.Freedom. 


The day that people start talking to me in my blog,is the day I will realize it's not a diary and that everyone can see it, and maybe I will be more shy and not free to post my truest feelings. Maybe when the world starts talking to me, I will not be able to as free with my words as I am now. That would be tragic. Freedom of speech is a good thing. 

Yeah, I would love to talk to you. All of you who read Long Shot Start Up Girl. It's approaching ten thousand hits. That is a ton of hits. Still, no comments. I'm okay with it. Cause I like being free to say what I want. I do wonder, if to have someone interact with me on Long Shot, would it happen only if I had one hundred thousand hits? Who knows. 

I think when Passdown gets recognition people will talk to me on this blog.  I don't know, I kind of bet, people will talk to me when I have a hit startup. For now I am enjoying blogging to what I see as no one. It's just me writing in a diary, stuffing it between the matresses and feeling good, because what I wrote,made me FREE.
