I learned a new term today. "Link whoring".
lol. Apparently this is when you go to other people's blogs that are more widely read than yours and you comment on their posts and include your blog address in your closing. The idea is that if your post is interesting enough, people will click on your blog and go read it, thus increasing your readership.
This cracks me up. Then again, I'm shameless and will probably do it.
I have also included my blog address in my closing on the boards I post to and on my yahoo e-mail in hopes somebody will give a rat's ass. Probably not, but worth a shot.
Can't wait until my website is finished. Maybe that will bring more traffic to my blog.
Anyway, I got lots of good writing done last night. I was feeling inspired. My current book is cracking me up even as I write it, so that's probably a good sign. :-) I've been feisty and sarcastic the entire time. Apparently I'm in a mood.

The link whoring thing works (first time I've heard a name for it). I found out by accident. I think that's how I get a lot of my readers, but I didn't intend it. I just always signed my comments with my blogger ID.
