Oh goody!
Carly, I will have to check out your blog. Erotica...ooo. One of these days I'm going to post up some of my own poetry so you can laugh at how much it sucks.
Jim, what I've seen of your work definitely suggests that you'll be at home in Humor. Allow me to be the first to welcome you to the Humor section of Blogit.com, which looks surprisingly similar to the other sections of Blogit.com.
Yeah, I'm afraid that the norm is for short posts and frequent updates. Simply following the trend of appealing to people with small attention spans, which is most of the people, these days.
But hey, at least it's a market that we can appeal to. Eye-grabbing opening sentences, followed by a few hundred short, quick, face-paced words. Could be worse.
Still, it rankles to those of us who are more verbose (omg, I used "rankle" in a sentence! Not to even mention verbose!) and tend to want to use large words and make huge, sprawling parenthetical remarks.
I'm actually learning to not look down on those with short attention spans, mainly because I find that my own is shrinking as I get older. Or perhaps I'm just becoming more "time-conscious" or something silly like that.
Regardless, I'm off to bed. Take care everyone! Goodnight!
