		<description>How do you normally read my posts; directly at the site or in a feed reader?  I&#039;m guilty of reading in my reader first, then popping over to make a comment.  I have too many blogs in my feed to comment on each one, but if I feel the need to comment, I have no hesitation.

When you do visit the site what do you think of the design, the layout and the navigation?  Thesis is a great theme and you&#039;ve set it up well.

What do you think of the name Welshscribe, what message does it convey to you?  When I first saw the name, I thought you were a Welsh writer.  :)

What do you get from me? From my blog?  Every blog I visit, I learn something new, and need to learn is large and varied.  From you I learn writing, graciousness, and smiles.

What’s your all time favourite post? Why?  I never have favorites because when I read, I can&#039;t remember a post from one day to the next.  I read each one as an individual.

Are the posts themselves too long, too short or just right?  I must confess, I do tend to skim, so as long as there are headings, the length doesn&#039;t matter.  Only when I read fiction, which isn&#039;t often, do I read from the top down.  If I find something of interest in the middle, I&#039;ll go back and start all over.

What would you like to see covered?  I always like to see covered what the author wants to cover.  Oh, I&#039;m a reader, but the passion of a blog comes from the writer.  I would never want to step on the writer&#039;s toes and tell them what to write.   For me, passion comes from what you love, and how can someone else tell you what your passion is.

What don’t you like about this blog?  I have to agree with several of the other comments, your header.

Do you have any other suggestions on how I can improve this blog?  I haven&#039;t visited here enough to answer this question.  However, I&#039;m going to try to change that. 

You&#039;ve made a great home for yourself here, so keep doin&#039; what you&#039;re doin&#039;.  :)

		<description>There you go assuming the worst again. Stop trying to please all of the people all of the time :)

What&#039;s so wrong with looking for what&#039;s wrong anyway?</description>

		<description>If you&#039;re going to go Welsh, you may as well go the whole way and see how it works out! feel free to run any drafts by me. (Any chance of the odd daffodil, or am I chancing my luck ? ;) )

I was trying not to mention this, but I hope your readers don&#039;t think I deliberately make them look for what&#039;s wrong...I swear I don&#039;t! How about this: &quot;Janice, a fellow blogger and a very good friend of mine, is constantly asking questions, the kind that get you to really look at yourself ....&quot;

		<description>I am in discussions with a very talented guy regarding my logo and I&#039;m going to try out some colours offline or I will do when I get my blasted web server working again.

What do you think, red, white and green like the flag?</description>

		<description>I agree with Mel - you &lt;i&gt;are &lt;/i&gt;a cheeky bugger! You know I meant please may I have a guest post from you for my blog. I&#039;d be happy to do one over here any time you like.

Have you changed the width? It seems different but it&#039;s still about four letters too wide for me to be able to read your recent posts titles without scrolling, but it&#039;s better. (And do they have to be &#039;killer&#039; posts? You&#039;re a sweetheart Aikido black belt; why such violent imagery?)

So when can we expect to see more colour and a new header, then? How about &quot;Helping you breathe fire into your writing&quot; as a tagline, seeing as folk love the blog name and I keep seeing dragons? ;)

		<description>Kudos to you for having the strength to put this out there.  It can be so hard to ask for criticism and to take it in a positive spirit.

1.  Email RSS, then come over if I want to comment.  I receive feeds from around 20 blogs, both business and private, so there&#039;s no way I can visit them all each day to see if they&#039;ve been updated.

2.  I think you may need to invest in a professionally designed graphic, to be honest.  I agree with Samar on the need for some colour.  Your tag line could probably be a bit punchier too.  The nav is great, easy to get around and everything is clear.

On your sidebar where you have some products for sale it says &quot;You need these&quot; and my mind automatically says &quot;Do not!&quot;  I think that could be better worded, maybe &#039;I recommend&#039;, or &#039;Tools to grow  your business&#039;, something not as in your face.

3.  I really like Welshscribe, because it describes you exactly.  You&#039;re welsh and you&#039;re a writer.  Also, you need to buy the .com and redirect it to here.

4.  Your personality (cheeky bugger!) shines through.  I really enjoy your writing, your tips and articles on the how to of writing.  Also, your insight into people, such as the Rhydian Robers post.

5.  The one&#039;s you guest posted on my blog!  :-)

6.  I like longer posts, 400 words +, because I feel that short posts don&#039;t cover a topic in enough detail.  Having said that, sometimes a topic lends itself to a short post, or it could just be a &#039;have a look at this&#039; post.  I&#039;ve never read one of your posts and thought &quot;that should have been longer/shorter&quot;

7.  More on SEO and blog building.  You&#039;ve got those listed in your services so write about them.

8.  I&#039;d like to see a more regular posting schedule.  Maybe twice a week regularly, possibly a few guest posts if you&#039;re feeling overwhelmed.  I understand your difficulties in this though Marc, so take it with a grain of salt.

I really enjoy reading your blog, it&#039;s one of the one&#039;s I always read through rather than skim.  :-)
