How is my writing?

    Hey,
    Can you guys check out my blog and tell me if my writing style is okay?

    Is it readable? or does it make you exit the site?

    My bounce rate is extremely high - perhaps due to low traffic - but I thought it might also be my writing.

    Thanks

    It's taking an incredibly long time to load. That may lend to your bounce rate.

    Your writing seems to be perfectly fine though.

    I kinda like how you do your writing. It seems pretty informative.

    Thanks. I try to be informative but sometimes I think its too informative and reads like a text book. I'm trying to through in a pun or quirk now and then though.

    People like active sites, and what better way for a person to tell if a blog is active other than comments.

    can be improved to:

    I am the same way Wyla... I am not sure if my writing is the best but I am working to become more creative and actually be able to let my writing adjust on its own. The main guideline I keep in my vocabulary today is to make my writing understandable. That means, the wording to decribe something is in a manner that is easy to understand.

    Just let yourself flow, you'll adapt from there.
