SummerTeen Scope Notes

July 23, 2013 by Travis Jonker   14 comments

Why has the ol’ blog been quiet the last couple days? Because I’ve been getting all prepped up for some moderating duties at tomorrow’s SLJ SummerTeen event. I’ll be manning the wheel of the Humor Me! panel with authors Don Calame (Swim the Fly), Louise Rozett (Confessions of an Almost-Girlfriend), and Paul Rudnick (Gorgeous).

    I’ve been surfing online more than 2 hours
    today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.

    It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all website owners and
    bloggers made good content as you did, the web will be a lot more useful than ever before.

    And if by chance an item during the move was damaged, your mover is able to replace the item if it is beyond repair.
    Learn about all the things that are not allowed by the engines
    of the city. Talk to relatives, co-workers, or
    friends about which moving company they used.

    I was curious if you ever considered changing the page layout of your blog?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could
    a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better?
