Ways to Read My Blog

September 7, 2014

Hello All and Welcome!

Now that my blog, "One Writer's Life," is back on schedule, I want to thank the readers who have hung in there with me - and also to welcome folks who are coming to this blog for the first time.  I'm glad that all of you are willing to take a little time out of your busy days to read my ponderings on life.

There are several ways to be able to access this blog which I would like to share with you in today's post.

1.  By Email

One of the easiest ways to receive my blog posts is by subscribing for email delivery.  All you have to do for this option is going to my blog - "One Writer's Life" - and in the right hand column locate the option, "Follow By Email," then type in your email address and hit "Submit."  You will receive a notification email asking whether you want to subscribe, so be sure to click the link in that email letting Blogger know that you do indeed want to subscribe.

2.  On the Blog Itself

If you want to read this blog directly from the website itself, hosted by Blogger, then all you have to do is go to "One Writer's Life" and you can read not only the most recent post, but any or all of the posts to date.  This blog site is searchable if you are looking for a particular post or theme.  There is also a list of the most popular posts, and many other helpful elements.

3.  On My Website

My blog is also available to be read on my website - www.stephenarhodes.com.  If you go to my home page, you will see a tool bar at the top of the page.  Choose "Stephen's Blog" and you can read the most recent posts there.

4.  By Mobile Device

If you have a tablet like an iPad or a smart phone, my blog is designed to fit your screen.  To access it on your mobile device, all you have to do is type in your browser the address of this blog - http://stephenarhodes.blogspot.com/ - and you'll be able to read it on the go!

5.  Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Google+ Notifications

When I publish each post, I also add links to it on my Facebook page, Twitter account, Pinterest and Google+.  If we are connected on any of these social networks, then my new posts will show up in your feed.  You can click on them and read that way, too.

6.  By RSS (Really Simple Syndication)

Lastly, you may like to keep up with blogs or other internet postings by using RSS.  To receive posts this way, just go to my blog page - "One Writer's Life" - and locate in right hand column (it's at the very end, so you'll need to scroll down to find it).  You may subscribe there - both to receive the posts themselves and also to receive follow-up comments by fellow readers.

However you choose to access my blog posts, I just want to thank you for making time to read them.  It's hard to be a writer if you don't have any readers!

Oh, and One More Thing... Please COMMENT

From the very beginning, I envisioned this blog to not just be a creative outlet for me, but also to be a source of community to those who read it.  I would be very appreciative if you take time to comment on posts that you find interesting or thought-provoking.  I value feedback and want to know what you are thinking too!  There is an option on each post to post a comment on the blog's homepage.  If you post there, others will be able to read your comment and respond, creating a conversation in our little online community.  If you prefer to comment to me directly instead, you can use the email submission form on the blog or else just email me directly - stephen@stephenarhodes.com.  I would love to hear from you.

Have a great rest of your weekend!

Cheers,

Stephen
