Hi there!
I decided to take Ritu’s (But I Smile Anyway) advice and check my spam filter. Oh my goodness!! So many of you wound up in there. I’m so sorry. I was not ignoring you. WordPress popped you there, instead of here. But it’s all better now. I’ve put you back where you belong 🙂
If you missed any of Ritu’s #Blogmas posts, be sure to check them out. She gives great advice to new bloggers, and seasoned veteran’s, as well!!
Night Owl Poetry - Dorinda Duclos 
I know what you mean, Dorinda. I don’t check every day and have to apologize to many friends.

I know. I took care of the individuals then use bulk to empty the spam folder. The new editor looks different. Are you using the new editor?

No, I’m a stickler for change. As long as classic is still available, I’m not budging! I’ve heard good and bad about the new one. Do you like it?

I don’t like the new one at all. I try to switch back to the classic but don’t have time to figure out yet! I love to go back to classic. Yes, stick with it!

I’m sorry I haven’t finished your book yet. Two days in the hospital threw me for a loop. I’m still playing catch up!

Don’t worry, Dorinda. I haven’t finished yours either. All the packing, paying bills before travel, and other end-year things need to do.
I’ll do more promotion of my book when returning from my trip at the end of this month. I’ll post a review of your book on my blog by then. So I’m be kind of absent for 2-3 weeks!

I check it every day. It is much better on my site than it used to be. The spam now is really spam. The system eventually learns and starts doing it right if you check it more often then it starts to behave properly.

I have no idea why WP puts so many regular bloggers in spam. This reminds me to go check mine!!! Thanks.

I hadn’t checked mine in awhile, so there were many. I guess if you comment on too many blogs in a row, it happens. So much for community lol
