Kent Newsome has a post up titled “Five Steps to Good Blogging” which is a must-read. My favorite line, under the tip Don’t Act Like a Rock Star, Because You Aren’t:

If you start thinking you’re a big star just because a lot of other nerds read your online diary, you need to aim higher. Go outside.

lol

(Outside? What’s that? Is that the stuff on the other side of . . . the Door?)

Along the same lines, blogging literary agent Miss Snark (who has just announced a hiatus, but don’t let that put you off: her archives are a treasure trove for writers) passed along a few tips, as well, in a 2/1/06 post titled Trick questions:

I learned how to generate interest by inviting people to ask questions. I stole that directly from Agent 007. I learned that people will write back in the comments section more readily if you pose a question at the end of the post–I learned that by stumbling upon it. And I learned that posting a lot late at night allowed people to comment first thing in the morning, and thus build comment momentum during the day, and I learned that from Ron at Beatrice.com

Good ideas, all.
