Friends With Blogs - Clark Farley


Would he have been a Clark, Scott, or Roger?
To borrow from Winston Churchill, Clark Farley is "a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key." But I'm not sure I'd wanna unlock the door keeping us safe from him. (Just kidding, Clark, I adore nuts!)

I was first introduced to Clark in a wonderfully happy little place called "Bloppy Bloggers." (It's basically a support group for bloggers to fine turn their blogs, share their blogs, get feed back, ask questions, but most importantly, have fun and enjoy writing. If interested, check out the button on the right side, over there somewhere). Back to Clark.

Larry, Moe and Curly?
 I checked out his blog and instantly felt like I was drowning in information overload. Not because his blog was untidy (it isn't), but because there is a wealth of knowledge on there and it was a bit much for my over taxed, little brain to assimilate in one sitting. So, like a wonderful meal, I got back and take little bites of it from time to time. Everyone should visit his wonderful blog; The Wakefield Doctrine. It will be worth your time, promise. Don't forget to adjust your tinfoil hat.

I also discovered (thanks to him finding and stalking...er....following me) that Clark is also on HubPages. His profile name is extremely original: Clark Farley. (polite golf clap ensues)

Why I like Clark: He can be all things to all people. He is witty and funny. He is also way smart. He is not condescending or arrogant. He loves to share his knowledge. And he enjoys including his friends and fellow writers in some of his extremely interesting projects. He lays out his plan for an exciting 2013 here.

My favorite piece by Clark: That's an easy one, it has to be "Illustration of the 3 Personality Types of the Wakefield Doctrine" because it helped me understand what he's trying to get at and I can be a slow learner at times. Especially when my wonderful, and much loved son brings me a handful of last night's dinner after his body has processed it and disposed of it.

Bye bye now!
There you have it, another fantastic blogger that deserves a read and a follow. You might just learn a little something and have fun doing it. 'Til next Wednesday's "Friends With Blogs," have a great week!

  1. Oh awesome tribute to Clark and so well deserving. And thanks for letting me know that I wasn't alone in the beginning in feeling like I was a dumb ass when I read his blogs. He so very smart and I guess I am so very not, lol, but he really does a great job breaking it down for people like me :) :)
