i want these blogs to blog about me

hipster runoff, 9000 unique visitors (per day), american apparel ads, would be funny, a demographic would be targeted

neil gaiman's blog, 50,000 unique visitors (?), would be funny, i've never read his blog, sales would increase dramatically

dan wickett's blog, 180 unique visitors, would be funny, i would feel like a slightly different person

keith gessen's blog, ??? unique visitors, n+1 co-editor, would be funny, i would refer to the post frequently in real life i think

emily gould's blog, ??? unique visitors, would be funny, certain people would care about me, sales would probably increase

lauren spohrer's blog, ??? unique visitors, works for noon, would be funny, i would feel interested

ron silliman's blog, 3000 unique visitors (?), would be funny, i would comment on the post and reply to other people's comments on the post, things would be said that wouldn't be said in other places, poets will say things

p.h. madore's blog, 10 unique visitors (?), would be funny, i would think about the post often i believe, i would want the post to be extremely long and comprehensive, he has already blogged about me sort of here and about ellen kennedy here

critical mass, ??? unique visitors, would be funny, 'the blog of the national book critics circle board of directors'

based on what you said and some other things i'm changing my estimate of your unique visitors to 7 (per day, these are per day)

alright. you could as easily change it to 7M, i don't think it matters, i don't want to think about this anymore. i am going to write this post sometime this week. i have to first learn the meaning of existential and the purpose of hamsters as a force for world change.

I just blogged on you interviewing Joy Williams. And I included a cat photo. And I get at least ten unique visitors a day, although many seem to stay less than a second. Hmm. Anyhow, for what it's worth (the cat photo).

Going to finish the entry/post today. It's going to be the first in a new section entitled "shit talking." I have to first read/re-read your stuff in Nerve, Vice, and Esquire, because it's an important part of the entry. I think this will be what you were looking for, but if not, we can just have a literary feud and hate each other for a couple years or something.
