OK, so I have been writing this blog now for just under a month, and I am trying not to be too despondent over the fact that barely anyone leaves me comments. In spam terms, I am very popular. I received 30 comments the other day. But sadly that’s as far as it goes. Granted, patience has never been a particular virtue of mine, and as my husband always tells me, I seem to enjoy monologues, but still the silence is slightly unnerving.
I am therefore making the following offer to the first five fellow bloggers and readers: Comment on any of my posts and I will edit 100 words of your choice. No poetry or science fiction, though. Read more about my thoughts about poetry here.
Yes, this is a rather sad and desperate measure on my part, but hey, I am up to my neck in work as it is - what’s another 500 words?
Let the fun begin.

sorelle, just so you know i read your blog religiously and i enjoy it enormously as you know i cannot spell and my grammar is abysmal!!!
feel free to edi my emails………..
Am I in the top 5?
You’re tip of the top, baby. (I guess I should have realized that when I extended that offer, my friends would feel obliged to step in and comment.)
I’m not commenting just for the offer of the edit. (I write a lot of poetry and otherwise don’t think I’ve written anything that’s less than 100 words.)
Your blog is good. I imagine you have more readers than you think you do. There are always more readers than commentators. Do you utilize any tracking stats?
Thanks for the compliment - truth be told, I was in a whiny mood when I wrote this post, so if I can’t whine on my blog, where can I whine? I do use tracking stats - the numbers aren’t up to much, though. Seventy visitors over the last month?
Just keep writing as well as you have and your readers will come.
