Everyday writing/Carlos Pueblo
Writing for
my blogsite has been my hobby for years. I chatted with my son Arthur
yesterday morning
about my blog on Google and Tumblr, 2,700 pieces on one
while the
later with about 2,000. Google provides me with some statistic such as
daily
readers, nations from, and the reading numbers on each piece since 2008.
I ask him
how it could be possible that I have had Italy as the most read nation on
my blog,
U.S., Russia, South Korea, Ukraine, etc. followed. Taiwan is current out
of the top
five on statistic and I am puzzled. I have added my English edition after
the
recommendation from my daughters on the ships for them to read my
experience
on cruise trips.
Arthur
indicates that my readers are those who search a certain word such as a
name of a
city which I have written. They like to seek some information not
necessary
the entire article; therefore, there is no comment left for me to respond.
In order to
get frequent comments from those readers, I must respond to them and
Read somebody
else blog and leave a comment. It is a social activity on internet.
By
monitoring my blogsite, I can feel the preference of my readers such as places
where I have
visited, kinds of daily activity attracted, i.e. pet dogs relationship,
personal
memories of certain former teachers, etc. He is right that readers do the
search on
the names of interested and come to my site.
I have been
influence by a great Chinese writer of history, Shi Ma-chien and one
of his
letter to a friend in danger of a death penalty by the Emperor. I have read
this
piece so
many times and during my life time. He says that he likes to hide his writing
into a deep famous
mountain, or a famous temple, for passing them to the future
generation
of readers to enjoy. He did hide the most famous the Story of History at
that time
some 2,200 years ago for more than 100 years to avoid the threat of death
penalty from
the same Emperor. Confucius was known to Chinese civilization by his
writing and
so was the classical Chinese literature. I am of course not that great as
him, yet I
did follow him to hide in some way to the blog similar to the famous
mountain
which he mentions.
