After much thought, and I DO mean MUCH, I have decided to make this diary a friends only place.
For a long time I have known I have a few unwelcome lurkers. And I also have a security issue from a couple of short stories I published elsewhere on the net. Plus something happened recently that cemented the deal in my mind having to do with said security breech. [Which was entirely my own stupid fault by the way].
Ergo, within the next few days, this diary will be friends only.
There are at least two of you I know who read regularly that will be effected by this since you are not dear diary members. Email me and we will work something out. Or if you wish, you can open a dear diary account [it's free] and can then have access to my diary. Just identify yourself, and I will add you to the list. Go to: www.deardiary.org
I hesitated for quite some time making this decision, because it is my natural inclination to not exclude anyone. But the realities of 'internet presence' being what they are, I am making this move to get rid of that niggling doubt in the back of my head. . . . It just won't shut up!
Kinda like somebody else we know....
(Are you talkin' ta me? Are you talkin' ta ME?)
Why yes, as a matter of fact I am!
Also, I am toying with the idea of changing my diary look at the same time. So I might work on that for a few days. So if you don't hear from me for a little while, that's what I'm doing.
Redecorating.
