Blogs and Similar Weirdness

Someone told me recently that it was all well and good to submit short fiction, poetry and the like to every literary journal under the sun, but they added that a blog might not be a completely terrible way to supplement those submissions on top of the work I routinely do for Unlikely Stories (www.unlikelystories.org) and The Modest Proposal (www.mpjournal).

I suppose they could be right, so I'm trying my luck at a couple of different blogs to promote my work writing and acting (and any other nonsense i might be getting up to), and to also have a potential home for ideas, projects, essays and the like that might not be able to find a home elsewhere.

I know this all sounds pretty self-absorbed, but I'd be grateful as always for anyone willing to check them out. I'd like to think there's some neat stuff going on. I'm not great at keeping people up to date with those times when I do sell something to an outside publication, but either of these blogs (or just those blasted Facebook and Google+ pages) would be a good way to keep up, if you're so inclined.

Thanks as always. It would also be great to find out if anyone around here maintains a blog at either of these sites. You can be sure I'll subscribe or follow.
