I think the Ad Column, although probably slower than you would like, does impact readers. Through your ad column, there have been several people submitting poetry to C.I.(Creative Inspirations). Also, I just got a $5.00 dollar donation from a person who also submitted some poetry, so it is effective. The ultimate decision is yours and I respect whatever decision you make. Thanks for all you do for this ministry and publication.Karen O'Learyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10510849199110347270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629436772073396833.post-64120369916549700792013-08-28T08:45:55.597-07:002013-08-28T08:45:55.597-07:00Dear Ndaba,

I rejoice in the achievements of others because getting there sometimes is a process that involves a lot of work. Thank you for your support. It means a lot to me.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />KarenKaren O'Learyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10510849199110347270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629436772073396833.post-31297874865216511742013-08-28T03:38:43.348-07:002013-08-28T03:38:43.348-07:00Karen, there is no gainsaying the fact that the af...Karen, there is no gainsaying the fact that the aforementioned adverts are important because they give us information about publication opportunites available here and there, and the literary achievements of other community members. In essence, all these elements serve to inspire people, and even attract them to the site. They make us better writers, they bring us together, they market us and our craft.<br /><br />To this end, l urge fellow members to send congratulatory messages to people who have done something special. Let us celebrate with those who have won writing awards, published books or even joined Whispers.

I believe though people will read it if they find it. A suggestion: you might want to put the Link for the Ad Section at the top of the page before the poetry. That way people will see it easier and might comment more...<br /><br />Rhoda Galgiani<br />Rhoda Galgianihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17790649850644976894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629436772073396833.post-65084825382042298012013-08-27T08:33:44.482-07:002013-08-27T08:33:44.482-07:00Dear Jane,

Maybe that is why you have received no comments as of yet, people did not know where to look? I just found them and think they are worth reading as they give people several opportunities to buy other books or publish their own.
