Re: Do people IRL know you have a blog?

This post is a response to Do people IRL know you have a blog? A short while before I came across bacardi55’s call to conversation, I asked my wife if she wanted to see something cool. She said yeah.

And to do it on my own website — as opposed to Goodreads or some other such walled garden of a corporate behemoth — is a small act of defiance. In the nearly twenty years that’s passed since I first published this website, the times I’ve brought it up in conversation I’m usually confronted with why. Bar the odd exception, nobody I’ve met in real life has ever commented on something I wrote online.
