   Nice!

   I’m still strictly amateur myself – blogging in back alleys for the occasional comment and trying to pick up random strangers on the street. “Hey, honey, want to have a good time and read my blog?”

   David,

   Thanks! It was thrilling!

   Ian,

   Watch out, you don’t want to get arrested for loitering! Don’t be offended if someone does offer you money for your loose blogging.

   Ooh, congratulations, Amanda! That’s great. That article is very anthology-worthy, IMO.

   Hmmm. And what label should we apply to a woman who is able to captivate a man with the stroke of a pen???
   Wonderful piece of writing, Amanda. Good job.

   Bob,

   Thank you!

   I’m not sure what to call a seductress of writing. I’m sure there is a name though — it’s a fine tradition going back through hundreds of years of love letters, poetry and pillow books by women.

   That is fantastic, Amanda! Congrats!

   Also, came to tag you with an internet meme, if you’re so inclined. I think it’d be an interesting post for you: http://lalibertine.blogspot.com/2008/10/i-usually-hid-in-bushes.html
