I beat you to it, Deborah. :)
So I've had this blog for a while, and I still get the occasional urge to write something. Still, I rarely post. Why? Because I know that even on the off chance that someone happens to read any of my posts, there is NO chance that anyone will ever comment. And there I will sit, abob in an ocean of uncertainty while my thoughts and muses float in space.
Yes, I just made up the word "abob". I think I like it.
Anyhoo, the point is I don't like saying something and not getting feedback.
So that's where YOU come in.
If you: the random, semi-interested and currently anonymous reader, promise to read and comment on all of my posts, I will do the same. Obviously, this means you have to start blogging too.
So in a concerted effort to rally and motivate local bloggers, I give you this. The first post.
NOW GO WRITE SOMETHING DARNITT.
