Wow, I'm so happy you read this :smile: Your blog is new but your writing is extraordinary. I don't know what you will study in college, but I hope you continue writing and write books. My blog has become fairly popular, but I really do nothing for it's popularity other than engaging my readers and really getting to know them. My purpose in blogging is to help people and to further my own artistic quest. Above all, it is to make really great friends. The Brown Baron is one of my best buddies! I know I threw some major compliments at you, but you deserve them. You are young and have such fantastic talent - don't let that go to your head...haha! I know you wont. Your writing, poetry and artwork inspires me immensely. I sincerely mean that and I'm so happy to have a new, awesome friend. I hope we stay friends forever :razz: Hello Moyrn!

Initially, I posted things on blogs and art websites not with the purpose of receiving other people's opinions of them, but merely as a if-I-do-X-will-Y,Z or D-happen-? sort of experiment. But after a while, soon after joining deviantArt, actually, I noticed what a wonderful and addictive experience each comment is. I'm not particularly fond of my blog, and not very motivated in terms of getting an audience, so comments are few. When I get one, it really makes me sit up, but yours was one of the rare ones that really got through the screen and registered in my brain. It feels very nice to have someone with an obviously popular blog, and several readers to reply to, to have visited one's blog and left a thoughtful comment. Nevertheless, popular or not, from what I've seen of many blogs, people seldom appreciate the value of a single comment. It's just another number to them that is apparently a reflection of how popular they are. I guess if you make a blog, or join an art site, you're telling everyone that you're ready to have the world see and react to what you have to give. So it makes me miserable when some persons don't seem to acknowledge the importance of every single comment they get. Some are genuinely busy of course, while others sadly jaded because a majority of the comments they receive are generic, trendwhore-esque ones, saying pretty much the same thing that everyone else seems to be saying, or trying to promote their own space with a copy-paste message. Mass-appeal if overrated :( But seriously, I've rambled on for too long now! I had intended just to say that I agree with what you've written here, and what your friends said. Specially Baron Brown's comment-- I'd never looked at it that way! Anyway, I obviously got carried away, so sorry for being a drag. Have a divine cookie for being a lovely, REAL person :D <em>Moyrn's last blog post..<a href='http://uneloquence.blogspot.com/2008/03/false-encounter.html' rel="nofollow">The False Encounter</a></em> Oh I totally totally relate!
