It’s quiet There. Quiet as the grave. There’s not a sound. No response. Little movement. But what d’you expect in the graveyard? In fact since the start of the year there have been only nine visits, two of these from me. In its whole history there has been only a modest attendance.
What I’m writing about is the BLOG. There have been so few posts since that area first opened. Writers like to communicate, to shout, call out or nudge and whisper. But whatever the volume and whatever the message they send out, they want to be read. But does anyone read the BLOG section? Okay, some do but my bet it is not very many. Not like INTRODUCE YOURSELF whence I was expelled last week. I liked it here. I was comfortable here. In three weeks there’d been 3000 hits on A VIRGIN IN THE PHILIPPINES. Then I was unceremoniously bundled out into the graveyard. I understand the reason but I feel cut off. It’s so lonely, so quiet.
Furthermore I wasn’t able to tell you that for a limited period there were free copies of my ebook if you applied directly to me on my website which is available on this site. That offer is still open.
Anyway, I’ve had my gripe. Maybe if I’m allowed I can have it published not solely in the graveyard but back here in the place where I felt more comfortable.
