RE: Reputation Score - A Little Advice From The Trenches -
More specifically, think, "Why would anyone want to read or look at this?" If you can't come up with anything, hit Clear, not Post, and try for something else.
Best advice out there. If you can't come up with a good reason why someone would want to read your post, don't post it. There is so much junk out there!! Thanks for the post. It's a good one and lots of people need to learn more about their rep score. When we start out as plankton/red fish and are just throwing posts up and votes everywhere, we don't know what we're doing. I'm still working my way toward becoming a minnow...hopefully soon, but my rep is doing a lot better than I thought it would be at this point. #theunmentionables
Thanks so much for your thoughtful reply, and support, @panamamama! I really appreciate hearing which point really stood out to you.
I’m following you now! I love how you are writing on a set theme every day. What a great idea for structuring your articles, and keeping yourself motivated. Have you written an article about that technique? It would make a great subject. Please give me a link if/when you do.
Cheers!

Thanks for the reply and most excellent idea about posting about my daily theme. :) It does usually help me come up with an idea to post about, but some days I'm asking myself what I was thinking choosing that for the theme! ;) I'm about to have to reinvent Tuesdays, for example. I haven't written a post about it, but I definitely will and I'll be sure to let you know! Thanks!
That will be fantastic, @panamamama! I look forward to reading it! And don't you just love Central America? You are living one of my dreams! I lived in Honduras for six months, and visited Guatemala for two weeks. I love those regions!
Cheers!
@mitneb
Oh nice. I haven't been to either of those countries but I hear they are nice. We do enjoy life here. :)
There's nothing like the taste of fresh, ripe pineapple from a roadside stand, right, @panamamama!
Cheers!
@mitneb
That is true. We have a pineapple truck that sells them for $1 each in town. I get them pretty often. Tasty stuff!! :)
To die for, @panamamama!
Cheers!
