Personal Development (Online) Authors List
Well, I admit that I was a little surprised that I got an email in my secret email account that is only used for administrating this blog. I’ve put this site on hold for a little bit as I put my energy towards finishing up Placebo, concentrated on finding a new job (because I can’t afford to work in retail anymore, with my student loans coming due), and working on my relationships, with myself, my family, coworkers, and everybody else that I come in contact with more than once.
Unfortunately, it seems that I’ve been neglecting the relationships centered around this site… partly because some of the relationships are ones that I can easily reinforce through email, and partly because… well… I don’t really want to market this blog.
Yes, I want people to read it, and for it to make a positive effect on people’s lives… but I don’t want it to become a “mainstream” blog, where I can’t remember any but the most persistent commenter’s name… and I most certainly don’t want to blog just for money. After all, I program to get money… (that, and I’m addicted to programming… Might as well get paid for what you can’t resist doing, right?) That’s why I haven’t gone out on commenting sprees, or chased through massive repositories of social links in search of that one magic[k]al site that will put me at number 1 in Technorati and Google. Gaining a bunch of faceless and nameless readers just isn’t worth it to me. It’s the ones who I can name… who I can count, or who I can at least infer from usage logs… who I care about.
Anyways, that was just my rant of the night. On to the main topic.
The email that I got was notification that I’ve been tagged by Priscilla Palmer of her eponymous site PriscillaPalmer.com to include a list of personal development authors on my site, and add those who I read.
Unfortunately, I can only name one additional person who is not already on this list. Like me, this person has stopped writing temporarily, waiting for more information and for a good topic to come around. Unlike my site, though, her site is actually useful for people who like to study the inner workings of the human mind… especially in the developmental stages.
So, though her husband has already made the list, I am adding Emily G. W. Lilly with her site The Science of Waldorf Education.
And without further ado, here is my revised list. I will make it a point to schedule this page to be synchronized with the master list monthly. For the up-to-date version, please visit The Personal Development List began by Priscilla Palmer.

Hello I just wanted to say thank you for the mention! Have a great night!
Thank you for taking the time to post the list, and make an addition. I really appreciate it.
I was rather pleasantly surprised to be included on the list of Personal Development blogs–mine seems more like “person development” to me!
I hope that folks can learn about their children (and maybe themselves) from my posts, and there will certainly be times when I can make suggestions of things to be done to support children in their path to adulthood, but the focus is not on any sort of self-help.
You are right, I haven’t posted in a while, but it’s not for a lack of things to say! School starts tomorrow, and I was floored by how little “vacation” there was for _me_ this summer! Four little kids require an astounding amount of time and attention. Finding a two-hour block of time (when I’m not tired!) to sit and read and blog did not happen as often as I would have liked this summer, but now is the time to rejoin the blogosphere!
Hi, thanks for the link love!
I think that’s wonderful that you have work that you love to do (programming) that you can also get paid for. Do what you love and the money will follow…
JoLynn, I would like to say, I enjoy your blog. The discussion about Trans Fat is something that I’ve been trying to tell people for quite a while…
I must admit that I really don’t have much time this morning to search through your archives… but a topic that I thoroughly enjoy seeing covered is an in-depth look at the good and bad fats. It’s a bit off topic for my own blog, but I’d love to see a link to such an article appear in my comments…
Also… just a quick critique that I am more than guilty on (it’s on my to-do list, I swear)… I’ve gotten spoiled with people putting their top posts in their sidebar. Do you have a list of posts that you would want a complete newbie to see, so that they can jump right in and understand the whole topic?
Anyways, thanks for stopping by.
Lucid, Priscilla, and Emily… I haven’t been ignoring you… I’ve been quitting smoking. I have a busy day, but I’ll get a few comments in here to you three later on today.
[…] Adam’s Peace […]
