Somehow this blog keeps track of the home countries of its visitors, and displays them for me on a map. This is very cool.
Yesterday, I was astonished to learn that I had 10 views from New Zealand. Now how did that happen? Am I catching on in New Zealand? (Judging by the sales figures for my books, I am not catching on anywhere.) Are there really ten people in faraway New Zealand who even know I exist?
Well, in case any of y’all come back, here’s a shout-out: “Kiwis, ahoy!” I’ve never been to your beautiful country, but I was absolutely fascinated by moas and tuataras before I was three feet tall, and I still am. Fascinated by moas and tuataras, that is–I’m not three feet tall anymore.
Now let’s see if anybody shouts back…
Hey Lee. I’n not a Kiwi but an Aussie. NZ is kind of a suburb of Australia. That should get any Kiwis reading to respond 🙂
Hi, Glenn! For some inscrutable reason, I have 11 visitors from Australia today.
If you’d like to see what I have to say about the man I consider Australia’s greatest writer, see my post in the archives, “Fading into Obscurity.”
I’m really inspired along with your writing skills and also with the format in your weblog.
Is this a paid subject or did you customize it yourself?
Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it’s
uncommon to look a nice weblog like this one today..
