On being transparent - I can see how knowing friends were viewing your blog could shut down your boldness a bit. Not too many people know me in person so I can be pretty "invisible."
It seems that a Symbolism Thesaurus would be a good thing to have. I love those deeper meanings.
I always enjoy Kathryn Lang's blog posts. I think I'm pretty transparent in my writing, especially on my Compost Pile blog. Sometimes, I write a first draft straight from the heart without worrying about being too transparent. Then, I go back and soften things a bit.

The article about being transparent sounds intriguing...
Thanks!
Can you be too transparent? That's what I wonder as I write edgier fiction. You know, TMI type thing...
Good thoughts on these blogs!

Another great Friday round-up! Kathryn and Bill Coffey's advice to be transparent in our writing is something I'm really taking to heart. Thanks!
Hi Sharon -
You're welcome! I guess this is akin to "opening a vein."

Hi Nancy -
Good thoughts. Several people I know personally read my blog, but I'm a "what you see is what you get" kind of gal. This is the real me.
Blessings,
Susan :)
Hi Jean -
My first drafts are done in Blogger. I preview all my posts to check for errors, and make sure my meaning is clear.
I think you do a great job with Compost Pile. Whenever there's a new entry, I'm right there. :)

HI Susan
Transparency. Such a shallow term for something so deep. I always enjoy your links! (and you too!)
Happy Sunday!
