Now, after years of writing and posting on this blog, I have finally stumbled upon the secret formula to receiving tons of views and, presumably, people reading my posts. The key doesn't lie in the quality of the writing or the point of view of the author. Nope! While those things have garnered me views in respectable number, the real way to get peoples' attention is to be a prick.
Yep, despite all my efforts to the contrary, herculean though they have been, when I let my inner A-hole out for a walk in the courtyard, people flock to this blog.
I get it. My response to an unnamed critic of my work whose point of view I found moronic and poorly rendered has now become my most viewed post. But what does this mean for yours truly?
Am I going to stop posting other things? Since my posts about my latest published work garner a tenth of the views of the one about the reviewer, does that mean I will stop sharing that type of news? Well, no because that's this blog's primary function.
So maybe it means I'm going to tailor those posts to the people who seemed to gravitate towards the popular post. Again, nope.
Maybe it means I get it and I won't shy away from posting similar things in the future.
Yeah, let's go with that!
