BLOG
One of the beauties of modern technology (thank-you, clever Google Analytics!) is that while you can't identify who, when or why somebody's visiting your website, you CAN see how they've arrived there.
For example, did they click through from Facebook or Twitter? Did they type ''shark toy party'' (hey! It happens!) into Google and BAM, somehow magically arrive at one of your pages?
I was wondering why so many people had apparently been searching for ''Corrine Lynskey Frock & Roll'' in the past 24 hours. Um, I wager that this would be why!
This (an edit from this piece here) was published in the The Manly Daily newspaper yesterday and I HAD NO IDEA. How terrifying! I feel so weirdly... exposed! (Which is ridiculous, because I'm not secretive about Frock & Roll in the slightest, but I guess that if anyone in the area didn't know that I was blogging... THEY DO NOW!) Yikes indeed!

That's fantastic, Corinne! I would die if I saw my name in the newspaper like that - especially associated with my blog! :D

That's awesome! I can sympathize with the exposed feeling. A restaurant in SF linked to my review of it on my blog and I'm getting a fair amount of hints from it. I feel a little embarrassed actually!

Olivia - If you were any sweeter, you'd be a bakery. THANK-YOU! ♥
Tamara - Awww! Thank-you! (But I'm sure that you could have!)
Alex - No, no, nothing suss, Axe-y! They'd written a piece on obesity and the 'Big Is Beautiful' show and I commented on it. I DIDN'T KNOW THEY'D PUBLISH MY FULL NAME *AND* MY BLOG'S NAME!
Miss Peregrin - Yeah! When I commented, I had no idea that they'd publish it... but thanks heaps, lovely miss! :)

Hmm, that's a little strange that they didn't contact you and ask to use your work. Oh well, great publicity I guess? Good on you!

Wow, that's a bit sus that they didn't ask/tell you before publishing! But great exposure nonetheless! Good on you, Corrine! xx

Great letter, well written, and my thoughts exactly (although I could not have articulated them as well as you have)
