I am honored to have my post mentioned on your blog. Some time ago, I read an interview with you, and your words inspired me. The Manolo said something to the effect of “Blog whatever you want and blog frequently and blog in your own style and the readers, they will come.” Of course, the Manolo said it with much more sagacity and with a more felicitous turn of phrase that made one think of butterflies and champagne and all the good things in life.

I shall put three little gold sticky stars in my Hello Kitty diary to mark this momentous day.

I remain, your humble admirer,

Marta

P.S. I am wearing teal peep-toe flats, eshewing the fuzzy slippers that are generally considered more author-like.
