On my blog page, in the right sidebar under my Profile, there's a small blue button labeled "Follow" that you can click on. It asks you to agree you want to follow the blog and specify what email address you want to use.
Unfortunately, being a Follower doesn't mean you'll receive a notification when I post a new blog entry. I've been searching through Blogger Help, and there's no widget that lets people subscribe and get email notification of new posts. So I'll continue sending my own emails when I post a new blog entry.
The following instructions are what I found out about "following" a Blogger blog.
If you can read my blog, you have a Google account. To see if there's been a new post on a Blogger blog (like mine), click on the little grid of dots next to your tiny profile picture and choose the Blogger app.
On the Blogger page, in the left sidebar, click on Reading List. This takes you to a list of blogs you're following. If you've "followed" my blog by clicking on the blue Follow button, then Roen Swynford should already be in the list of blogs.
If it's not, look on the right side of the Reading List page and find a blue MANAGE link. Click on that. To add my blog, click ADD, and enter the URL, www.roenswynford.com.
Even after doing this, you still need to visit your Blogger Reading List each time you want to see if I've posted a new blog entry. (sigh)
I've considered moving to another blog service, but those cost money and I'm not yet at a point where that's cost-effective to do.
I appreciate everyone's patience and willingness to stick with me on this. Thanks.
