Today I met someone I respect quite a lot. I introduced myself, and he said “oh yes, Little Girl With a Big Pen, I read your blog.”
The name of my blog sounds surreal coming out of people’s mouths, like it’s a real thing. People out there read it. YOU! You read it!
So hey, thanks. Thanks for reading my blog, and giving me an audience, and making shit real, yo. I had a moment today where I realized that I’m doing something ace that I enjoy, and it’s getting somewhere. It’s been about a year since I started blogging, I think it’s a year in about a week’s time… Gosh.
And:
YEEEE! (RE: Recognition via blog)

It’s kind of surreal and cool huh? I’m glad I’m not the only one that gets this little high out of people saying, “Oh, yeah, I’ve seen you on the internet.”

Haha, absolutely! That’s the funny thing about this whole writing gig, it never gets any less “squeeeeeee!” whenever something cool happens. I just get ridiculously excited about everything.

Try having your name mentioned in front of an international conference – I felt I was being swallowed up by my seat.

Oh wow, I’d LOVE to try that, haha!
Where was that? Must have been very exciting!
