People? Fellow bloggers?
When I started the Make Me Come thing last week?
I was a little afraid that no one would send me anything. Because who the fuck am I to suddenly announce that I am no longer playing by the rules, right? Who the fuck am I to demand that you request my comments?
People? I love you guys.
In the last week? I received 78 requests to visit blogs.
78 requests from 56 bloggers.
I commented on every single post that you sent me.
Each and every one of the requests directed me to a piece of one of my readers.
And I did not regret a single visit.
No wasted time.
Seriously . . . you people can write.
I love your words.
I love feeling connected to you.
Which makes this next part difficult.
I have decided to choose several posts a week to feature here on Pretty All True.
There was so much good writing.
If I did not select the post you sent me? Doesn’t mean I might not feature it at some future time.
Doesn’t mean I don’t want to hear more from you . . . keep sending me links.
Seriously. Keep sending me links. You are fucking awesome.
As for the four posts I have chosen?
I am linking those posts here on the main page of Pretty All True for the next week.
This will be a rotating honor, and the links? Will change every Wednesday.
You’ll find them under Come Here! on the right side of this page.
I don’t do a blogroll. I don’t give anyone space on my main page. So to me?
This is a big fucking deal.
I hope you agree.
If you are a regular reader here on Pretty All True? You will know the writers I have selected from their appearances in my comment section. But if that’s all you know about them? You need to know more.
So go and read these extraordinary posts!
From Danielle . . . poignancy.
From Nichole . . . poetry.
From Cameron (CDG) . . . sensuality.
And from Kali . . . hilarity.
My readers.
Who are now . . . more.
Thank you.
1st comment??
And also? Great. Just what I needed. You to turn me on to more fabulous writers…like Nigel. And CDG. And Marian…
Love u.
So many good writers among my readers.
So many.
Love you as well.
Thank you, Kris.
Your support? The connection?
Means a lot.
And also?
More new people to go read!
Yay!
Your piece?
It was awesome, babe.
Way awesome.
I second what CDG has said. Your support means a lot. I love how you’ve staked a claim on your little corner of the internet and you share it only selectively. That means that if you ever share it with me or another, that sharing has so much value.
My blog is in stasis right now, but I promise to make you come (har!) in the near future.
Thanks, you!
Yes . . . I have staked out this tiny piece of the internet.
The internet is way fucking big, by the way.
Were you aware?
Hee hee!
I am. Well aware. I get lost for hours on it sometimes. *grin*
Snort!
That was fun!
You preview, finding all the good shit,
then I get to enjoy.
I like it!
Gives me something to look forward to next wednesday.
Yay!
World domination.
Your plan is working.
Insert evil laugh here . . .
Bwahahahahaha!
The second I read you were featuring people I thought “Nigel.” Well done for not giving in to nepotism… on the first go! ;)
I love how unpredictable you are. It’s a rare quality nowadays.
Now I just need to grow some balls and send you some of my shit!
Snort!
I have talked up Nigel so much, who doesn’t know I love Nigel?
Also?
Nigel didn’t send me a request.
Just saying.
Thank you, Kris. I feel all kinds of special and rock star-ish right now.
I loved your post!
Love the funny.
You are way funny.
Awesome idea!! I’ve read some of those posts but I’m gonna check out the others.
Happy sighs.
That’s awesome.
That was fun. You’re too easy.
Is there such a thing as too easy?
I think not.
Snort!
you are all kinds of awesome. Seriously. Can’t wait to come. Often.
Thanks, you.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for this, for inspiring me to be a better writer, and for being my friend.
Love you so much.
Your piece?
That was amazing.
And I love you as well.
This is a BIG fucking deal…a GREAT idea. Thanks for adding interesting bloggers to my life ;)
Yay!
I am so glad people are happy with this idea.
Because I love it.
Thank you!
I have a question for you. Can I send you one or two that I’ve closed comments on? I close comments after two weeks because of the insane amount of spam. Yet, I have a few I thought about sending you last week.
Maybe I’ll just open comments.
You need better spam filters, young lady!
Yes, open comments!
I did. I opened them. Will send you a few post at some point today. :)
Yay!
Love that.
What an awesome idea! I was not sending you links as to not bug you but now that you’ll be featuring people? Shit. You know I’m an attention whore.
Who among us is not, really?
Ahem.
very cool idea!
Hey!
Thanks, you!
