I Am Not Ignoring You, I Promise

It just so happens that lately I have had to focus my time more heavily outside of myLot. So, today I was able to get a new article written for HubPages as well as two new blog posts for Blogspot.
I don't know why it's my rule, but I only allow for one post a day on Blogspot, so I posted one earlier today and wrote the second one which I scheduled for publication tomorrow.
I am also continuing to evaluate my presence on YouTube, having shifted from making my channel an extension of my total online presence which incorporates money and politics mostly. Early on I shut off a few political videos I had and decided to focus more heavily on money and the stock market and frugality.
Now I am thinking about adding the politics back in the mix. I just haven't decided yet.
I know having a niche channel focusing on one thing is more valuable overall. But at the same time, as you have probably figured out, I don't like to follow certain rules and I also do not like to be pigeonholed.
I will make a decision on that very soon regarding YouTube.
Meantime, while I do have some other plans outside of myLot, I do intend to spend a bit more time here. Not that I have to say, "Hey, I am not ignoring you," at the same time I did not get as caught up around here either to the extent I would have preferred.
So, see you tomorrow and onward and upward.

Writing articles and blogs is sure time consuming and it is understandable you will find it difficult to spare your time here

I will admit they do take longer than stuff like here. But at the same time, they come relatively easy for me. I have been writing for a very long time. Some of the stuff, honestly, writes itself. Writers definitely know what I am talking about when I say that.

Never heard about Blogspot. My blogs are all on WordPress. Just posted seven more articles on Vocal Media, You gotta do what you gotta do and best of luck to you,

@porwest I posted my poetry for years at HubPages. With that I made a lot of online friends who with time drifted away from the site, Then HubPages stopped allowing comments and I never made a cent there and finally closed my account,

Yeah, I was expecting some comeback after my comment about Bill Gates, but I see you are busy. I don’t know where you get the time. Take it easy and catch up with you soon I hope. Our government are publishing their Autumn budget tomorrow, so I might need to run it past you.

You sound like a very busy person. How do you get on with Hubpages, have you managed to make any money on there yet, if you don`t mind me asking? I know that they have a high pay out threshold . I do a bit of writing on there and I have barely made anything in over two years. Do a lot of people visit your blog?
