Hey Maggie, I am not 1, 2, 3, 4, and i don’t quite fit 5. I am a Kenyan writer, now a professional web content editor for a publishing company called Storymoja here in Kenya. I am a movie/TV addict, too, looove Sci-fi and casually flirt with horror films. I’m a comic/animation buff too. I just loved this description of yourself, I had to write you. Will keep up with your posts :) *wave all the way from Africa*
Hello there! *waves all the way back from Portland OR!* Thanks for stopping by, and I do hope you’ll find lots worth reading about here. Keep in touch! ^_^
I’m a #5, working up to #4. Just stopping by to check you out. Love the picture. You look like you’re having fun!
^_^ Oh, indeed I am. Thanks for stopping by!
Thanks for stopping by my first blog, Maggie! How have you been? Thanks for always being a sweetheart! I hope you have a wonderful 2010.

Aw, thanks Lee! Doing good, though busy as always. ^_^ Thanks for dropping by!
A 4.5 here. I kept noticing in my wordpress backend that a lot of people were clicking links to your blog from mine (even though I didn’t have any links; must be their related posts function, I gather) so I thought I’d come over and check out what my handful of visitors were checking out. I’m glad to see there’s connection between your blog and mine, what with you being a submissions editor for a genre mag and me being an aspiring genre writer (though not so much on the horror side). That being the case, I’ll have to stop by from time to time just to see if I can learn anything interesting about the editor’s side of the industry.
I have to say, there’s something unsettling about that picture of you, there… though I can’t quite put my finger on it.
Hi Stephen! It’s probably all that red ink. Yeah. That’s gotta be it. ^_^ Thanks for stopping by!
Oh, that’s red ink, is it?
Anyway, I was thinking it’s that rapt, deific gaze toward the heavens. But maybe you’re right…
