How did you start to make friends with other bloggers/art journalers online? I thought my blog would be a great way to meet people, swap ideas but after over a year of blogging often and commenting on other blogs, I don't have great connections like you.

    I've been blogging about art for about four years now, and it took awhile to meet people. Some of it came from the 'zine I published, Page by Page (which I hope to revive next month); I emailed artists I liked and interviewed them. That helped make contacts. I also just emailed people, flat out. Hey, how are you, I have a question. I'm horrible at commenting on blogs myself -- I read a lot of 'em but mostly through a RSS reader. :( Mostly, I just post my art on flickr and my blog, make sure the photos are in the right groups, and let it speak for itself. It takes time, my dear. Please be patient and keep going!
