New links. Let's see how long they'll survive

The reason for so many blogs is I've been stricken over the past year with some uncanny luck on the blog and Facebook page area. My Facebook page has never worked. My subscribers don't get my posts on their feeds and Facebook, as usual, can't be bothered. So they never know when I post anything. Blogs keep getting deleted, as I've given an example of in the post before this one or technical difficulties of one sort or another met with sites that have about as much customer support as Facebook and I have to end up abandoning them. Well I've opened a few just to see if one survives for even a little while but you know what? Two have already developed technical issues that Wordpress can't be bothered fixing even though the one has been proven, I believe, beyond a shadow of a doubt is their responsibility they just close down the thread and don't allow you to respond anymore. That's what they call support there. And they have people in the forum that snap at you if you need anymore help than having a link thrown at you. Some are very nice though.

Here's the links and two of them are on Networkedblogs.

We'll see how long it is before I have to abandon them too. Can't help but be pessimistic as far as this goes. I have this site though and it's been working fine and they do actually have something resembling real support here. Only thing is their pages don't post at sights like blogs do or I would certainly have no need of the blogs.

I'm Wordpressin, pressin da words

OK now I'm giving Wordpress a try. I hate it but their look is so much better than Blogger and besides I've been looking for a way to escape Google. I'm learning just enough to get by. I wouldn't look for my blog to be really involved with allot of bells and whistles because did I say I hate working with Wordpress? I just don't want to be bothered learning all that coding because to be truthful I don't want to do all that technical reading that seems to be required. I'm a right brainer for crying out loud and I'm looking for an outlet not a curriculum. Having said all that I think I've found a semi reliable work around for a simple copy and paste. It's limiting but I don't think taking a college course in html is worth the little extra I'd get. I will miss some of the arrangements some of my poems had. I don't think there's a work around for that. I've posted a few writes and have already gained a following so it's so far so good.  Check me out. souleander.wordpress.com

    The Sojourner

    Welcome! 
    From the Sojourner.

    I'm a new writer hoping to voice what is in me in the coming years.
    My experiences sometimes fuel my writing but often they do not. At times it's what I believe or what I dream of.
    Sometimes there's a bit of humor too. Those are usually born of my experiences with others online. They're not meant to be deadly serious so if you're asking yourself "what or rather who is he on about?" it might be one of those.

    I was born and raised in Harrisburg Pa. and moved to Va. in 01.

    I invite you to stick around and I also invite your input.

    You can also reach me at
    poeticsojourn@yahoo.com

    The photos you see are all the photos I have of my existence.

That only makes sense.
