Scrivenings

Scrivener May 6th, 2008

A few months ago, everyone was doing that six-word memoir meme and I was tagged a couple of times to do it. So I had a few, but then got interrupted before I could write a whole post about it, and decided I’d come back to it. Well, now that the meme’s time has passed, I guess I can finally get in on it. So, I’m slow, sue me.

I was really, really tempted to steal a line from David Eggers and just go with “This was uncalled for” but then I did the math and realized I would need to flesh it out, and it didn’t really seem to need two more words.

So, anyway, I’ve got two candidates. The first one is the funny one, or at least I find it amusing, and the second one is sappier:

It wasn’t so easy at first.

Shined some light on the darkness.

jo(e) reminded me that today marks four years of blogging for me, though most of it took place in the earlier iteration of Scrivenings on Blogger. It’s the silk anniversary for my blog and me, but the only present I have for my blog is one measly little post. And just a meme at that. Nonetheless, even though I’ve pretty much taken a hiatus on the written portion of my blog, I do very much appreciate all of you who have visited and read my blog–I still find it difficult to believe that I’ve had more than 350,000 visitors to these virtual pages. The community that I have found in the blogosphere has been incredibly important to me. Thank you.
