What I Learned on Slog

posted by on October 12 at 17:46 PM

Wow, what a day. Slogging all day is hard work, and I didn’t have nearly the number of posts as most of the other guests. I know that it has been said a million times, but jesus—it really is challenging to not only find things to post (before someone else does), but to try and be smart and witty about it. It is definitely easier as a commenter. Since the hard work of posting something is out of the way, all you have to do is add a one liner on there and BAM, you are soooo special and smart (looking at you POE! Our Sloggy nemesis!)

But honestly, cheers to you dearest Slog readers and regulars. You tolerated an onslaught of posts, and will probably be back for more tomorrow. But that’s ‘cause you like pain don’t you? Yeah that’s right, take it….

Oh wait, ok… back to the wrap-up…

I wanted to add that I have so much respect for the tireless Stranger staff that do this, and their regular newspaper jobs, EVERYDAY. They really do an amazing job, and I am honored to have been a guest here today.

Is a free weekly considered a newspaper? Obviously, it's more than writing for the Nickel, but . . . .

Well, you're special, Mr. Poe.

I don't know about the smart part.

But OM is right about it being easier to post than to write a blog article well.
