Help, I'm too popular....
Every once in a while this blog seems to attract a lot of traffic and I have no idea why. I like to pretend it's because millions of my followers are hanging on my every erudite exposition, but that would be delusional.
Many visitors may be simply googling smut and end up here, woefully disatisfied. (maybe they're seeking Nora Snowdon specific wisdom like, "Hey if you really crave pornography or erotica, you should google those specific terms." You're welcome smut-cravers.)
Sometimes when I'm off on my political rants I imagine the NSA or CSIS are checking in, but with so many angry bloggers in Vancouver, BC alone, I'm sure my hissy fits don't raise any alarms. --well unless I throw in an odd BOMB reference. (can't blame a girl for trying.)
And why ever people visit this site, I have to think it's a good thing. I blog for two reasons 1) I like to vent about the actions of scummy politicians and CEOs (I'm specifically looking at you Monsanto but also glarng peripherally at many others.) and 2) I have the website to promote my romance books. (hey have I mentioned that for only four more days my Crimson Romance titles, Arsonists Anonymous and The Spanish Acquisition are only $1.91 at Amazon.com?)
There is, however, a drawback to all this attention. I get performance anxiety! It turns out it's much easier typing away my drivel when I don't think anyone is noticing, but with over 600 vistors in the last few days (and i haven't posted anything new since last week!) I'm wondering if I should just quit while I'm ahead. If I don't know who's reading my crap, how do I know what the heck they want to see here?
Then again, maybe I just got on some odd blog link that sends foreigners to my site to practice reading English. Whew, that takes the pressure off. What do they care about content? And bonus, they won't probably care if I split infinitives or end in prepositions-I don't know what for.
Okay, crisis averted. Nevermind people, you can get back to your regularly sceduled programming...
