		<description>It&#039;s very important to me that all of the carnival participants feel like they were really part of something and, realistically, when it comes to blogs that means seeing more visitors and traffic!

I&#039;m working on ways of making it better for everyone!</description>

		<description>Yeah, the facebook group helps, but what about the people who don&#039;t use EITHER?

Jojo suggested we set up a website dedicated to it.. what do you think?</description>

		<description>My question is what to do if someone schedules a post ahead of time.  Can we &quot;schedule&quot; a link to post on your carnival?

I haven&#039;t participated yet, but I plan to!</description>

		<description>Peter, the schedule looks good.

As for how to even out the readers? For what it&#039;s worth, I read far more posts than I have the time to comment on. I wish there were enough hours in the day to spend a good 10 minutes on each blog. but with 42 blogs ... that&#039;s 7 hours. I feel good if I spend 5 min on each. Sorry that I don&#039;t have a solution.</description>

		<description>Peter, a few ideas:

1. To remind people of the carnival, I think most of us wouldn&#039;t mind if you or Bridget would ask for our email addresses. You can create a mailing list through Mad Mimi (free up to 100 emails) and send us emails if you have any announcements. Also, if you are using cPanel, I think there is an option for creating a mailing list there. I have that in my cPanel (I&#039;m using JustHost) but I haven&#039;t tried it yet.

2. How about creating a Facebook fan page for the Blog Carnival?

3. I&#039;ll send suggestion 3 on your email.</description>

		<description>Peter you thanked us now let us thank you for hostong this wonderful carnival it has been great posting.  One of the ways we could get the word out is if each of us who post put the schedule on our own blogs maybe in a side bar or even a separate post.

		<description>Peter,

I think it really helps when you pointed out on here for the newer Blog Carnival participants, like myself :), not to take it personally.  For me, being the new person on the block so to speak, I believe it helps to just get out there and leave comments on others&#039; posts. Regardless of how many read mine or leave comments, I guess you could say I am &quot;brave&quot; about trying to get my feet wet. I was fortunate to have a lot of  traffic, even though I was towards the bottom. I have since I first started my blog.

My thoughts are that &quot;grief&quot; is a hard subject for some people to know what to say, especially if you don&#039;t know me personally. I feel incredibly blessed with the many new friendships like Bridget that have come from the encouraging comments left over the last year on my blog stating that they are prayerfully following my journey.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m looking forward to writing and reading on the church.  Grief was hard, but sometimes writing on the church can be just as hard.</description>
