Back at the end of April I announced I was going to post daily on Substack, with a theme for each day.
Dad Joke Sunday
Musical Monday
Haiku Tuesday
Wild Card Wednesday
Clerihew Thursday
Franciscan Friday
Salmagundi Saturday
One of my goals was to see the page grow.
I kept up that daily posting throughout May and into thmy last post on Saturday being my 112th overall.
But my number of subscribers remained essentially the same.
I subscribed to a number of people, and my email gets flooded when they write. I don’t have time to read all their work. And I’ve noticed a number of them did not subscribe back. And a lot of my posts got looks, but no responses.
Now what this daily posting has meant is that I have had less time for the real writing I want to do. I’ve written fewer poems than I normally would. The works of fiction I’ve been writing - such as my Santa book and my Christian supernatural novel - have gotten less attention. I have even posted on this blog less than I could have.
Not good.
Yeah, I’m frustrated.
Maybe it’s time to back off Substack.
I’m going to be taking a break as I consider what to do.
