Not sure if it did in your comments view either. So just to be sure, my suggestion was to add ‘target=_blank” in the href tags on your links.

Two suggestions for you however, from a fellow writer who has been reading you for about a year now.

The first is easy:
1. Can you make it so the links open up a new tab? Use LINK TEXT. Because many times I read while I listen and then I click a link and lose the tune…

This 2nd suggestion is probably going to get you a bit upset and most of the masses a-commenting:
2. My vote is that you edit down your text a little. You make very few if any writing errors so I know you must be going over your posts before putting them into wordpress. But for my tiny little pea brain – many times I need less words and long drawn out sentences. I find that I mainly skim your grafs as oppose to pore over them – and you have good things to say. The question is – how to say them in the easiest-to-read-webified way? Something I too grapple with. (As you can see by the length of this 2nd suggestion.) Anyhoo – something to keep in mind as you continue to hone the craft.

Thanks,
Matt
