So I’ve been doing this blog for a couple of years now, and apart from a couple of stern-voiced, persistent individuals, I have little clear understanding of who’s reading it, or why.
So now is your chance to come forward and declare yourself. Who are you, what do you do, what brought you here, why do you come back, what do you like best, what do you like least, all that stuff.
In other words, if you will, complete this sentence:
Hi! I’m _____ and I read Todd Alcott’s blog mostly for:
His offbeat, idosyncratic movie analysis
His authoritative posts about writing
His cute stories about his kids
His insider’s view of the soul-grinding Hollyood machine
His inexplicable promotion of the career of James Urbaniak
His unqualified judgments of music
His obsession with certain specimens of pop-culture detritus
Or perhaps it’s his Star Wars slash fiction.
This goes double for you anonymous lurkers.
My many thanks to you in this, the year of the United States’ deliverance from Bush II.
Well whaddaya know —
— an editorial in the New York Times I agree with.
