Don't ask me.
I don't even know why fools fall in love!
But Alex Cavanaugh has written a great post on how to do it :
http://alexjcavanaugh.blogspot.com/2012/01/you-cant-reach-1000-followers-by-being.html
He has pointed out 4 bloggers who are very close :
Nicole :

Matthew :

Jesse :
http://jesseacohen.blogspot.com/
The fourth? Shy, bashful me.
Visit the three above and tell them Roland & Alex sent you. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy new year! You'll have 1,000 followers to celebrate with in no time, I'm sure of it!
ReplyDeleteWow, awesome numbers! You must be doing something right!
ReplyDeleteWagging Tales
...it's truly an accomplishment well deserved.
ReplyDeleteCongrats in advance ;)
El
Double checked, and I'm still following. Weird that GFC does that, though, it's done it to me before, too.
ReplyDeleteYou can do it! Quite an achievement if you ask me and my 186.
ReplyDeleteAlmost there. You've got a new follower in me too! Happy New Year Roland!
ReplyDeleteHey Roland!! You are now one person closer to reaching your 1000 follower goal! So glad to have discovered your blog...isn't it awesome what blog-hopping can do?! All the best to you and your family in the new year!
ReplyDeleteYou're almost there! You can do it. I'd help, but I followed you a LONG time ago. I plan to be a better commenter, too. Looking forward to more of your awesome posts and writing!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! :)
You're getting closer!
ReplyDeleteI heard through the grapevine that you were nearing 1000 followers...very well deserved. Your blog is unique and you give it that special touch that is you. I just stopped by to say hi and wish you a Happy New Year! I'm still hiding from blogger and not quite sure when I'll be back to posting or hopping. Take care of yourself, Roland. :)
ReplyDeleteWOW! Blogger took my comments right before I was going to publish!
ReplyDeleteLET'S SEE IF I CAN REMEMBER THE GEMS I WROTE. LOL.

Your friendship makes blogging even more special.
LD :
Your blog was marvelous. Thanks for following and staying to wish me well.
Jenny :
Yesterday's post really was moving and thought-provoking. Thank you for following and caring enough to chat for awhile.
Heather :
I wouldn't be able to do it without great friends like you.

My friends, both old and new (like you), are the reason I will make it, if I do!
Elliot :
I'm not congratulating myself just yet. But I will thank you immensely for your constant friendship!

Blogger is trying to drive us crazy I am sure of it! Your friendship means a lot to me!

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Roland! Congrats on all you have accomplished~
ReplyDeleteI love all you have to view over here! I need to catch up~
Thank you, Elizabeth. May your 2012 hold only happy surpries! Roland
ReplyDeleteElla :
ReplyDeleteYou made my afternoon with your visit and nice words. Now, I'm off to the blood wars as a rare blood courier. Wish me luck, everyone. The roads are treacherous out there! Roland
Hey Roland, I'm glad you left me that little message. I had not seen you come upon my 'dashboard' in a while and when I get here, I was not a'follower'. What's with that. I'm sure I had been.
ReplyDeleteAnyway...I'm a ditzy blond, so it could have been me. Then there is the fact that blogger hates me. So, there you go. I'm on board now.
I looked at the 'Hot Kiss Blogfest' and followed her site. Hopefully it will remind me. I'm shameless when it comes to excerpts from my WIP and a little 'free input'.
Good luck on the 1000.I'm sure you'll be there in no time at all.
Just twenty more to go! It WILL happen this week. Matthew just went over so you're not far behind.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the 1,000 followers. Nothing to be shy or bashful about! And have a great 2012!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your milestone!
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through Alex's recommendation and I'm your new follower.
Happy New Year! Looking forward to your posts.
Congratulations! All of those are good points to live by in blogging and in life I say :)
ReplyDelete- Ash
Thanks for commenting on my blog. Well, after my follow you've got 18to go before your target. Though no doubt there will be another as I write this! Nice to meet you and look forward to finding out more about your books.
ReplyDeletefarawayeyes :
ReplyDeleteBlogger hates me. I will try to be a better visitor, but being a rare blood courier takes so much of my time! Even now, I am at work, waiting for a hospital to call! LOL.
Alex :
Thank you, my friend. I am taking anything for granted. I hope you like my Insecure Writer Support post tomorrow!
Thank you, Stephen!
You have a great 2012 yourself, Roland
Thank you, Angela :
Looking forward to your comments! Don't be a stranger, hear?
Thank you, Ash :
You have a kicker blog yourself!
Nick :
Yours is a fascinating blog. I hope you enjoy the post tomorrow! May 2012 be all our year! Roland
I clicked over from Alex's site. Congrats on nearly reaching 1000 followers.
ReplyDeleteI read it Roland...and yeah I remember you, I have been reading you a couple of years back, but I lost track of you...maybe because I have been so irregular in my blog!
ReplyDeleteI guess I have been following you too!
And you have read me also a couple of times...:) I could recall that!
Yeo...see you again later!
Okay, Roland, I'm about to follow you, so you've got one more! I popped over from Alex's blog post, and then I realized that you and I were both in Susan Kaye Quinn's Indie Book fest! I'm the author of Fireseed One. Cheers! Catherine
ReplyDeleteINLUVWITHWORDS :
ReplyDeleteI went to your site from Alex's blog at the same time! Cool. I'm your latest follower. Come back again, Roland
Amity :
Blogdom is so large that it is hard to keep track, isn't it? Please come and check out my posts again, Roland
Catherine :
Thanks for following me. Your FIRESEED ONE sounds intriguing. We are kindred spirits. Have a lovely week, Roland
Hi Roland .. that's great .. so nearly there - one to go - where are you Mr Last One? .. dear Bayou ghosts please release Roland's latest follower lurking there .. don't be jealous .. he conscientiously does his blood runs for you .. and is constantly mentioning you ..
ReplyDeleteThe fog of mist will clear and that one last follower will materialise .. before you start with number 1 of 1000+ ..
Have a great year Roland .. and many happy days with your writings .. cheers Hilary
