On my Urban Semiotic blog we are trying to reach the historic and substantial goal of ONE MILLION READERS by January 1, 2008.
It’s pretty amazing we currently have around 863,000 Urban Semiotic readers in a little more than a year of being hosted on WordPress.com.
Please visit Urban Semiotic to help us reach our readership goal for the New Year so we can watch the numbers turn together!
We thank you!
We appreciate your keen support!
You know you’ve hit the Big Time on the Internet when people start clinging to you by writing about you on their blogs, sending you email and talking about you on other people’s websites without your direct intervention or knowledge.
Sometimes your fans are kind.
Oftentimes your former sycophants are cruel.
You then take the good with the bad — the admiring with the obsessed — and find pleasure and peace in knowing they are all propagating the brand, creating a buzz and keeping your name and your presence out there in the world for everyone else to read and then discover the truth of you on their own; thus creating a whole new gang of friends and foes who will willingly and unwittingly perpetuate your growing circle of fame and power.
Love the lovers; love the haters — and take no reality from either.
Today is the sixth anniversary of the crowning of the Ground Zero Death Pit where the World Trade Center used to stand.
I have written about that life-changing, world-modifying, event every year since the attack and I have come to gruesomely realize there are some dark pits that no words can ever begin to fill.
Sometimes we are unaware of what we have written.
Our words always become ghosts to us and they haunt us in the quiet moments if we are not cogent of their power to harm when we create meaning by solidifying thoughts into form and placing words against each other for context.
Thank you for reading post and helping me tease WordPunk.com on TypePad.
I would appreciate if you’d bang around here a bit and see if you find anything broken or if you there’s something missing that should be added.
THANKS!
