I really love writing this blog or I should say writing and hosting.

I enjoy the stories that other authors and some readers share here and I enjoy reading everyone’s comments! And I’m always happy when readers leave comments EVEN WHEN THERE ISN’T ANY BOOK BEING GIVEN AWAY!

This year I’ve presented 4 kinds of blog posts:

1-Author Interviews

2-Guest author sharing from her own life and introducing her latest characters

3-Book reviews

4-Informational posts

For #1-I started doing interviews last year, but I have added a few new questions.

#2 is the staple of this blog, the stories of strong women. This is the whole purpose of this blog.

#3-I love to read when I can find time between my writing obligations and I like letting you know about books I’ve enjoyed.

#4-I post blogs about matters I think people need to understand. I posted one recently on what to do when Google Reader goes away this July.

NOW FOR WHAT I WANT TO KNOW!

Would you rank the 4 types of posts in order of what you like. Put the one you like the most first and then in descending order.

If I were doing it, I would rank them thusly:

2, 1, 3, 4

Also in past years I’ve reviewed primarily romance novels. This year I’ve been reading a lot of cozy mysteries. Please let me know if this is okay with you. Do you enjoy cozy mysteries too? Want to know which ones I’ve enjoyed?

And this post serves as a #4 too.

This information is about how to leave a comment. Many readers on Facebook etc want to leave comments but don’t understand how.

How TO LEAVE A COMMENT

Here’s the process:

a-Scroll to the bottom of the post till you get to the last line: Here’s the most recent example:

Send to Kindle

Posted in Author Interview, Book Giveaway, New Book Release | Tagged cozy mystery | 14 Comments |

b-Click Comment or Leave a Comment if you’re the first one. This will open the comments and a form for you to fill in for your comment.

c-If it is your first time leaving a comment, it will not show up immediately. I always have to approve a person’s first comment. This protects me from SPAM.

And that’s how to leave a comment.

Now please let me know what you’re enjoying most on this blog,

what you think about my reviewing mysteries and

also let me know if there is any author you’d like to see as a guest

Or if you have a new idea for a type of post. Thanks in advance!

If you leave a comment, I’ll enter your name into a drawing for an advanced copy of my next book, The Baby Bequest.” –Lyn

BTW, Don’t miss Amish Author Marta Perry who will share on Wednesday! Also everyone who left a comment last week on Eunice Loecher’s blog post will receive a free copy of her 1st mystery, THE WIDOW’S MIGHT! And Valri won Belle Calhoune’s first Love Inspired!

I enjoy reading your blog, Lyn. I’m with you on the ranking. I would like to hear your review on some cozy mysteries you’ve been reading. I prefer romance, but a mystery is good every now and then. Thank you for the work and talent you bring to us.

Lyn, I look forward to your posts, whether you have a giveaway or not! They are interesting and I especially enjoy when you have new authors for us to get to know! Speaking of that, who won Belle’s book? I was looking around your blog and couldn’t find if you announced the winner and couldn’t find anything. Did you announce a winner? Anyway, I’m looking forward to your new book. I loved the first book in this series so I’m sure the next one will be great too! The characters were great! Will the new book have the previous characters in it also? I always enjoy that! Keep on doing what you are doing with your blog!
