Are You Reading?

So... I haven't been blogging for a while (clearly). The reason is because I'm not sure if people are reading my blog, or if they like it. Yeah I should put in some social media buttons so that I know. But comments are rare and majority of them are spam.

So if you'd like for this blog to be more active, comment on this post and let me know. If there aren't any/many comments, I won't feel bad. But my decision would be easier.

Thanks!
