What do you want to read about when you come across a blog, whether you're subscribed to it and check it daily, or you wandered in for the first time because of a catchy title? Personally, I enjoy reading about books, food, and subjects in literature ranging from fairytales to gritty, nonfiction accounts of the real world.I love hearing someone's perspective on world issues that they are passionate about...to an extent. Yes, I want to hear what PETA's up to, as well as what Youth With a Mission's latest project happens to be. What I don't want to hear is someone stating as fact something they've only heard through the grapevine or from some rumor-mill website they thought was accurate. A perfect example; I do not want to hear that Olive Oil puts toxins in your body if you cook with it. That is a completely false statement, yet I've read this on more than one "health" blog recently. Needing to find out the facts for myself, I found a scientific website that proves that cooking with olive oil at 350 or less is not only harmless, but healthy for you. Healthy people have been doing it for thousands of years!
Enough of my rambling though, what does a reader love in a blog? What makes you, being that reader, come back for more? Inquiring minds long to know.

I like bloggers who share enough of their personal life that I get the feeling that I "know" them. I don't like every minute, boring detail of every hour of their day, but I love interesting stories of what they've been up to.
I love humor. Make me laugh and I'm hooked. I like talent...art, short stories, wit. I like bloggers who are successful in what they are attempting, like a 460 pound woman who has already lost over 150 pounds, and is blogging her journey.
I like yours because it is very well written, positive, and interesting.

I love to hear someone who knows how to write tell the story. I am interested in the journey and I can't wait to see where yours takes you.
