		<description>Thanks, Sara — seems I&#039;m in some good company. ;-)

It feels a bit strange to be mentioned on a list like this, since I haven&#039;t been writing actively for the past few months; now that I&#039;m getting back into the swing of things, though, I hope to have more good stuff for you to chew on.

(p.s. oooh, Thesis. Nice choice.)</description>

		<description>Hey Sara, I appreciate the link love even if you did have to point out the unusual length of the post title. :-)

There&#039;s no doubt that interaction in the blogging community is a must for most new bloggers.  I started out by posting on a few BIG blogs and getting some good traffic that way, but it wasn&#039;t until I really made the effort to get to know the mid to low traffic bloggers that I started connecting and building real relationships.

Like Barbara just mentioned, it&#039;s a wonderfully rewarding experience that you don&#039;t expect when you start blogging.  It&#039;s a great surprise!

I&#039;ve enjoyed seeing you over at my blog and others and I look forward to watching yours grow as you become more connected and continue to put out great posts!  (Was that a really LONG sentence?  Sorry, it&#039;s a habit. :-) )Eric.

		<description>Hi Sara - Your friend Kathy is so correct.  In order to truly enjoy the blogging experience, visiting other blogs and joining their communities and forming our own community is essential.  For me, it wasn&#039;t until I engaged in that activity did I realize the journey into blogosphere could be so rewarding.  I&#039;m happy to hear you&#039;re finding the same.  

P.S.  Thank you for the link love.  :)
