Thank Your First Commenter Day

Yzabel / November 23, 2005

Neil at Citizen of the Month suggests that Thanksgiving should also be First Commenter Day, which, all in all, I find a nice idea. Who would we be, we bloggers, without our readers and commenters, who so kindly let us know what they think of our constant babble and opinions?

Today, it is all about GIVING THANKS.How can we thank our fellow BLOGGERS? We read each other, we help each other with our designs and templates, and we cry on each other’s shoulder when a “blog crush” goes sour. On Thanskgiving, we should THANK our fellow bloggers.When I first started blogging, I was like a Pilgrim who just landed on Plymouth Rock. I was isolated and alone. For weeks, I wrote this blog without any direction or confidence in my ability. And then he appeared — like the Native American with his corn — my first commenter!

And my own thanks go to Larys, currently exiled on this small corner of a big isle that is Northern Ireland, and blogging about her experiences there on Many Shades Of Green. She actually has the honor of being the first commenter on both versions of this blog, since at the time, it was still one and only webpage.(Via The Blog Herald)blogging, comments, Thank+Your+First+Commenter+Day

    Hi there,You should also be thankful for your persistence in writing that novel. 50,000 words for NaNoWriMo! That’s impressive. Let’s hope it get published!

    Thank you 🙂 I’m not sure yet if it’ll be worth any attempt at publishing (are foreign authors who write in English ever considered, if they haven’t preiously published anything?) but future will tell!

    I doubt that national origin is that much of an issue, regardless of publication status. In the end, if you can grab an editor’s attention, give them something they think they can sell, they’ll buy it.Congrats on hitting the 50K mark!
