I don't comment often but ...Happy anniversary! I don't comment often but I do often think about what you've written for a long time after I've read it: to me, that is the best kind of writing. From your funny post about your boobs (I can relate!), to your quietly grateful posts about life (and the DMV), to your serious writing on gun control, and most everything in between, your writing resonates. I agree with lesliesholly: who knows what time you will be able to devote to writing in 10 or even 20 years? <br /><br />If I had chosen a different path (or if I had been able to choose two paths simultaneously!), I would have pursued astrophysics. As it is, I'm pursuing a career as a psychoanalyst. We all have many and varied lives behind the life we lead with!<br /><br />Thanks for writing.<br /><br />SheenaSheenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15800266970916098970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-10406472822197244522013-04-15T23:32:45.745-05:002013-04-15T23:32:45.745-05:00I'll try to keep your corner from getting too ...I'll try to keep your corner from getting too quiet.<br />Mark Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-41181740075544868902013-04-15T23:29:29.330-05:002013-04-15T23:29:29.330-05:00Happy anniversary to one of my favourite writers! ...Happy anniversary to one of my favourite writers! <br /><br />Often when I read your blog, it feels as though you've gone into my brain, organized my thoughts and articulated them beautifully... better than I could have done. <br /><br />I, too, am glad you left Babble; I've rarely been back since you and Jane left. <br /><br />PS - I'm so glad you're okay today!Rhonanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8654887465201994138.post-25996503126837901052013-04-15T23:08:08.115-05:002013-04-15T23:08:08.115-05:00Happy anniversary!

I really enjoy your writing and appreciate the things you share. I don't read many blogs (honestly, I try not to) and yours is the only one I comment on. I like that while you can celebrate the good things the Internet has enabled, it's not at the expense of 'real' life. That's how it seems, anyway! And as a UK reader, you provide a refreshing counterweight to the America we generally see in the media over here.

Well, reading and writing, as it's usually reports or policy briefs. But I don't want to manage programs or talk to people, I want to read and I want to write about it, and it's such a gift to have a full-time job where I do.<br /><br />Does it make me a writer? I'm still not entirely sure, even though I technically write for a living.SarahBnoreply@blogger.com
