Email and Other Bloggy Business

I have a big backlog of email that I need to respond to, but I’ve got other things to take care of right now. So if you are waiting for a response from me, it’s coming soon, but not yet. Unless of course, you sent me the kind of email mentioned in the next paragraphs.

I’ve been getting a lot of email requests for me to promote various Christian causes and organizations (and all good, I’m sure) on my blog. Unless I know you well, I probably won’t be promoting your cause or organization, no matter how urgent the need is. I just don’t have the time or resources to look into it to see if the need is real and the organization is up-to-snuff.

And I’d drive myself crazy if I tried to respond to all of the email like this that I receive so I don’t respond to any of them. I don’t like it much that I’m leaving what I judge to be genuine messages from caring people unanswered, but I’ve had to draw the line. For my sanity, you see.

Thank you to those who have sent me links to home posts to include in my collection today. Once again, the Home post will be coming later in the day. Sorry about that.

I have gotten so many of those 'please blog about my cause' emails lately too. I figured I wasn't the only one. My reaction was about the same as yours.

Must be tough to say, "no". But I'm glad you did!
