I’ve made a pretty good start at answering all my accumulated blogmail. Thanks for your patience!
The unceasing task of keeping my in-basket empty has been complicated of late by the fact that the “About Last Night” e-mailbox is growing increasingly full of spam and press releases (same difference, mostly), not to mention the usual solicitations for stamina-enhancing products, poorly spelled fundraising appeals from somewhere in Africa, and messages written in Oriental characters of one kind or another, all of which are, er, Greek to me. As a result, the personal e-mail I want to read is getting harder and harder to pluck from the commercial foliage.
If you’re a real live human being who reads this blog, please keep on writing. Your mail will be found, opened, read, and answered sooner or later, unless it’s in Korean or has a subject header hinting at a breakthrough in the problem of, shall we say, puissance.
If, on the other hand, you’re a publicist, I should warn you that I delete press releases sent to “About Last Night” without reading them. Publicists should write to me at my personal e-mail address. (Those publicists who don’t know what it is probably shouldn’t be writing to me at all, but that’s another story.)
P.S. Our Girl has her own mailbox, to which you should write directly if you want to comment on a posting whose title begins with “OGIC.” The e-mail buttons for both boxes can be found in the top module of the right-hand column.
