I Need (Want) Feedback

by Karen Lynch

I’ve been blogging here for just over six months I’m about to dig in, evaluate the direction this blog is going in, and determine the best direction to take this conversation — what do you guys, the readers, like to read on this site? We are discussing breast cancer, that’s a given. But which posts are you most drawn to? Which posts resonate with you the most? What aren’t you getting somewhere else that I can offer you?

Be straight with me … what do you want out of this conversation?

Email me at discussingbreastcancer at gmail dot com or click on the contact me/envelope icon in the right hand sidebar to pull up a direct contact form.

I look forward to hearing from you and many, many thanks, in advance, for your feedback.

    I don’t need to be “private” about this Karen, but I hope that others who might lurk and only read but never post will seriously take your words to heart and contact you about what they need, what they are looking for.

    My only suggestion is to keep doing what you are doing and continue to be yourself. Talk about what you know means something to you because you know it will mean something to even one other reader and that is important…even reaching one person.

    When you talk from the heart as you do, about your own experience, your own fears, your own questions…readers will “hear” you. The hard thing about blogging is that we don’t always get that direct feedback. And we have so many people who read but don’t post that we are somewhat at a loss in that regard.

    So, please, those of you who are just reading along, speak to Karen and others of us who blog..share your thoughts, your fears and your feelings which will open other topics of conversation.

About Discussing Breast Cancer

Discussing Breast Cancer is the place for survivors, their friends and family members to turn for information that will empower them to navigate through the storm they may find themselves in before, during or after a breast cancer diagnosis.

Many of the posts are about the author's personal experience as a two time survivor. In addition, Discussing Breast Cancer is loaded with timely news and information about the disease, it's symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. It will also reference the myriad of sites, individuals and organizations that either raise money and/or awareness for the cause or in some way contribute to researching a cure or serving breast cancer survivors worldwide.
