Recently, I have received some unsolicited comments in regards to my blog. Apparently, not only is it NOT funny, but it isn't even well-written. Matter-of-fact, my writing skills are less than desirable. And my prose shows no sign of talent. Oh, yeah, I forgot, it isn't even newspaper-worthy because sentences don't lead to the reader wanting more. And... (phew!), the photos are completely uninteresting and if seen by a bus patron, he or she would run screaming from the bus in sheer boredom.
It would be easy taking criticism from a published author, an editor or respected reporter from a National paper or even from a University Professor. My critic is none of these things in real life - just in their own mind.
Alas and despite these comments, I will continue to blog. My critic can choose not to read it. I humbly suggest that my critic stick to playing guitar in department stores. From pointing out weaknesses, comes strength, n'est'ce pas?
We are all apprentices in a craft where no one ever becomes a master.
--Ernest Hemingway (1898-1961)

I enjoy your blog. Perhaps your critic doesn't understand that it is supposed to entertain your friends with stories of Zoe's daily adventures, not appear in a newspaper or on a bus.I find it very witty at times too. Keep it up.
