Can blogging cure insomnia?

I can't sleep. It's nothing new, it happens all the time, and it is probably hormone related, at least that is what the doctors all say. I just can't fall asleep some nights.

Any chance that blogging might help with that? I don't know, but I know that sitting here and writing always makes me feel better. So even if it doesn't help me to sleep, at least it will get me to a somewhat happy place.

I now have a total of four blogs. This one for my general ramblings that have no purpose other than to be an outlet for myself. The others each have a specific purpose and reason for being and are special for that reason.

There is the book blog.  Tammommy Blogs on Books.
This is where I write book reviews of the books that I am reading. I love to read, and love to write, so this has been a long standing blog that ties both my loves together. I also have a number of Google plus communities that I joined to promote the book blog. I would really like it to be seen and to get some feedback on it. It has been seen by a couple of the author's of the books in the last few posts, which is really exciting. I always enjoying hearing from an author when I review their book. So things are going well there, just hoping to keep that going and grow it even more.

There is the new music blog.  Tammommy Blogs on Music.
This is where I post a country music video and blog a commentary about the song. It is not really a review of the song, but more of what the song makes me think of and what it means to me, sort of. I am enjoying writing it because I love music and I find that music is a huge part of life. It evokes emotions in all of us everyday, sometimes we are better at realizing it than at other times. Right now I am only posting once a week on this blog. I have two google plus communities that I promote this blog on. I also promote it on my twitter account.

The third blog is a business blog.  Tammommy Blogs on Business.
This is where I post business related blog posts. I have my store at CafePress that turns my original artwork into items and I promote that store on this blog. I am also a JewelScent rep and promote that business on the blog. Then there is my Etsy store and I promote it as well on the business blog.  As a stay at home mom, I have to do something to help pay for dance and show choir, so this business blog is what I do to try to make that happen.

Right now I just wonder what else I can do to get more traffic, and not just traffic, but people who will actually want to read the posts and be interested in them, to my blogs. How can I make them more popular and get them seen by the right people? I am not sure but that is what I am really trying to figure out, because I need to be doing what I can to help the family.

Of course, those are the things that go through your mind at 4am when you can't sleep! Guess I might just go ahead and read another book!
