Comments on: Flotsam: The Barbara Walters Special* http://flotsamblog.com/2005/07/19/flotsam-the-barbara-walters-special/ Deplorable solipsism? The new face of literature? Or merely a clever procrastination device...

I am currently in the final chapter of Half Baked, and I have recently started my own blog. I don't know what I am doing, its all very weird. Like the line I straddle between Gen X and Gen Y, I feel I straddle the same line between blogs of old, and blogs of now. I want to write, and I would like an audience to connect with, but I don't know if blogging is for me in this current climate of social media. I am waiting to read part 2 of 'Its mostly lint ...' but I understand you have some *stuff* going on at the moment. I will eagerly but quietly wait for part 2, when you're ready. Awesome stuff, lady!! What a strong start, Alexa. I am currently in the final chapter of Half Baked, and I have recently started my own blog. I don’t know what I am doing, its all very weird.

I wondered where it all started and never got far enough back to look (I have years of reading to catch up on, oh what will I do). What a brilliant beginning! Ha!

You have an amazing ability to find the humor in even the most tragic situations. I couldn't stop reading and chuckling over your posts. Someday I hope to hear that you have a bestseller.

Yayyy! I never looked up Flotsam until now. I just had to finally figure it out because I found the book "Flotsam" by David Wiesner in the children's section of the library and brought it home to read to my YDD. No words... but a totally cool story! Check it out if you haven't already! I’ve been following your blog for a couple of months now and it’s great that things are going so well with Simone! Yayyy!
