Very interesting Alison. I have that same thing as a note to myself. Some of my jposts just seem to go off into a black hole and other live on and on !
Strange, isn’t it? And sometimes it’s the one you dash off that gets shared and RT’d and others you really worked on vanish after a day.
But I think it’s like all social media – all a matter of chance!
