Am I a dictator?

A few years ago, my fondest dream was to run a book club where I would select all the books and run the discussion. Maybe I could pay people to be book club members, I hadn't exactly figured out how it would work. I'm picturing sitting around with a bunch of homeless people talking about Jane Austen.

The responses to the last post were like a Rorshach test. And I'm not a remotely elliptical writer.

So, as a dictator in blogosphere, I'd like to lay down some rules for comments.

(1) related to the post
(2) not personal
(3) pet theories kept on a leash

And yes, I know it's not nice to be a dictator and I'm supposed to listen to everyone and value your opinions and all that. But I would like comments that I can engage with and that will spark new blog entries.

On dictators and blogs:
the blog ground rules remind
me of Deep Springs: "be smart
the right way." Oh whoops, that
was too personal.

Long live the Immortal Margie!

I invite any and all
bloggers to comment on
my blog:

motelnoir.blogspot.com

It will be a euphoric and
dionysian exultation in alliteration and assonance.
