Sage advice. I have started including photos with several of my offerings and it does indeed seem to increase the readership.
Great photo!!
Thanks – photos really do make a difference. This was a pretty popular post. Hope all is well with your writing.
I too have found that photo’s make a big difference on my amount of views… and what I choose for pics/quotes!

aaajajajaaa fabulous!! and so true, my theme requires a featured image to show on the home page for each post so i always do that plus, I’m a very visual person and can’t imagine one of my posts without at least a thumbnail of something, of course a bear is quite en eye catcher 🙂 thanks, Alexandra

Great advice!
I can’t believe that’s a real bear – looks like my uncle dressed in disguise 🙂
I know 🙂 Crazy – sometimes I can’t even believe I got the shot.

Two things that I wanted to say don’t really have much to do with the post…Thank you so much for reading and reviewing Dreamer. I really appreciate it!
The second is that I was wishing for more super sweet blogger awards…you certainly deserve one!
No problem – the book was an enjoyable read and I like doing reviews. It makes me have a bit of discipline about what I read. And honestly, I’m not that sweet – ask anyone who knows me in real life. LOL
You are always sweet to me 🙂 pfft real life lol
Amazing picture. In Colorado, when we see a bear this size, this close, we don’t take time to take a picture. Or at least those of us still alive don’t.
OK – I hear you. I took this shot by slowing opening the screen door, peaking out and taking a quick photo, before quietly closing said screen door. Whenever I photographed this particular bear, last year, it was always from the safety of either a propped open door or the height of one of our decks. A photo like this makes a great talking piece, but not worth taking a risk over.
