Illustration by Norman RockwellDo you ever wish you could blog about someone, but you can't because they might read your blog? Just tonight I was thinking of a great story I could tell (you would
love it!) but it's got
libel written all over it...it would be serious
dishing. I've considered starting a new blog just for the gossip I can't report here, but I couldn't tell anyone about it, so what fun would that be? So, when you think my posts are humdrum, or even boring, just remember that I could be writing stuff that would knock your socks off. And it could even be about you!

oh man, oh man! I sure loves me the dish! I wish you could tell all, right here!
i know the feeling. i've deleted many a post (prior to publishing) for fear that the named might happen upon my blog.
Well, now you've got my attention! If I give you my e-mail, will you whisper it to me :)?
I also know what you mean, though. Some things are better not documented on the world wide web...especially on your own blog!
please call and fill me in...I know you will!
you've got us all waiting with bated breath...
I was taking a creative non-fiction class and my final project involved a series of essays about people and experiences "made me who I am". My professor enjoyed it and suggested I try to publish it--I was thrilled until I told my husband and he said, "You can't publish what you wrote! Do you know how many people you'll offend!" Not necessarily in a bad way--just that they wouldn't like me talking in public about all our "stuff!"
