For a lark I decided to Google this blog - AS IT STANDS - and was shocked when 3 columns I wrote appeared on the very first page!
Only two short listings appear before my column: "Outsourcing newspapers is offensive."
It was followed by; "Prosthetic ears, thieves, and payback," and
"Animal activists use terror tactics"
On Page 7, the animal activist column again; Page 15 had, "Vehicles that run on air are here," Page 20 had, "Living in the Twilight Zone," and Page 21 finally had this blog!
I didn't feel too bad however, as there were 81 Pages under this category.
It's interesting how some columns become so well read, and others (that I thought were better) don't get the same readership. I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't fully understand who reads my columns by the very disparity of subjects. It's hit and miss. There must be a magic formula that I could follow to have all of my stuff well-read. I'll just have to keep trying I suppose.
As long as it's fun, it's all good!
