On blogging

Cyril Connolly, the British critic and intellectual (that used to be a job description, sigh), died in 1974, so he'd have no idea of blogging. But I happened across one of his epigrams Saturday, and it pinged against my head, and the echo ends up here -- and about this:

"Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self."

ah but darling, i will always be your public. i will always be all ears. elephant ears. mine happen to be pinkish peach. and they are wide open and taking in art in the form of your thoughts......written. you type not into nothingness. not at all.
