Yesterday's blog post surprised me: it got a lot of responses here and on facebook (you can be my facebook friend too! type in garyrith@yahoo.com :)
Basically, this blog pops out when I get up before the dawn... it is pretty silly and boring, but some people look at it, and yesterday a LOT did.
You readers are SO nice and I appreciate your comments and concerns.
The wife has a guy at work telling her "hey, do you know what Gary wrote about you?", I was walking down the street and a friend stops me and starts talking about the blog, there was even a phone message about it on my answering machine.
I try to be polite and positive in what I write, and I know I walk the line about privacy and accuracy--about the only almost negative feedback I have ever gotten is the true observation that I can be sloppy with facts and I play fast and loose with privacy. YEP, all true. I tell the story the way I want, the best I know, and in what I feel is the most amusing way I can, like David Sederis, a writer who is wicked funny and also accused of blowing privacy and stretching his tales. Doesn't stop him, it is his style! Mine too! I'm just trying to sell pots......
I really enjoy reading your blog, it’s fun and I feel we’ve gotten to know each other through our blogs and a few phone conversations. It’ great fun.
ReplyDeleteI think a lot of people like your writing style (and your pottery) and that's why we come back for more. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteSome days I feel I'm the only one commenting on your blog...but then you are probably off with clay up to your elbows and don't moderate comments till later...and I don't sign up to see all the other comments anyway. Just saying I''m glad you blog, and now FB, but I'll keep the comments here which feels a bit less public to me!
