Another quick note: comments re-enabled
Comments are now enabled as before. My attempt to restrict them had the unfortunate effect of turning off commenting altogether for most readers; the Blogger platform allows for few choices in how to configure it. As for the spam, it's back, but I'll continue dealing with it while exploring other options for controlling it. Thanks for your understanding!

Fortunately commenting on Goodreads hasn't been a problem! And the spam seems to have died down on my site. What a pain :)

I do, and the spambots had figured out a way around it. I'd been getting many spam comments every hour, but turning off their access for a time seems to have done the trick. For now, anyway.
