This is my 750 post for this blog. I’m not sure how many words that is, total, but I’d say the footnotes alone represent a good-sized chunk of those million words we’re told we have to write before we get good at it—here’s hoping.
Thanks to all of you for reading at least some of those words—and special thanks to those of you who have taken the time to comment on them, so I don’t feel like I’m typing into a vast empty hole in the Internet.
To celebrate, here’s a video created by Andrea Dorfman for “Art,” by Tanya Davis sent to me by a friend who said it’s become her muse call:
I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad to hear that, Cedds! Thanks for the follow!
This made my morning. Thank you, Sarah!
Any time, Lisa–and thanksf or the FB support.
Happy happy joy!
750 posts–nice! congrats
(i think i all I have is 15!!!)
Your fifteen have actual content and depth, though, Josephine, so it all balances out.
Happy 750th post. This is a great video to commemorate it.
Your blog has always been a joy to visit and it continues to be with every post.
I remember when you were the only one one who visited and commented, Lisa. Thanks for keeping me going!
LOVE this! [I think that's my word-quota for this quarter. Back to lurking now.]
Hi, Nancy!
See you again next year?
Love the video, and enjoy your blog immensely – even when I don’t comment. Congrats – that’s a lot of posts.
Thanks, Maddie! I like yours, too!
Sarah, That video was absolutely delightful. You made my day and this day needed a lot of repairs.
Uh-oh. It’s too late to call now, Dad—I’ll call you tomorrow afternoon.
But I’m glad you liked the video.
Thank YOU. I feel like you give so much more than you receive. You certainly make me feel less alone.
I give more?
Who gave me three of the best photographs ever to grace my walls and introduced me to (at least) two of my favorite mystery series? Who makes me smile every time she shares the way she sees the world—or lets me know other parents are going through the exact same thing?
Life wouldn’t be right without you in it, MSB.
Thank you, Sarah. You have no idea how much I needed someone to say this right now.
This is something that I struggle with each time I write a poem or draft some little written thought. Does anyone care? The fact is…I care enough to write it down.and hopefully, others will find it enjoyable and/or meaningful. Congrats on the longevity and consistency of your blog, Sarah…may you reach greater heights in your writing.
That, I think, is what keeps us going, John—and for the record, I enjoy your poetry very much.
And thank you!
Congratulations on 750 posts! That’s quite an achievement!
Thank you. Ask me if I’ve accomplished anything else during that time.
Have you?
Hmmm. Well, actually . . . yeah. Never mind.
I think you are well past that bad million words. Congrats to you!
Awww, thanks, Mike (blushes).
