I don't mind the self-promotion as much as the fact that

it's all unidirectional.  When I was blogging my policy was

to try and foster mutual support, but the big shots (sic)

were usually not interested.  I would get these emails

from The Nation, Z, etc. inviting me to publicize them, but

when I sent notes saying how about supporting me too,

the silence was deafening.  One reason I soured on

blogging.
