In the interests of not giving myself something else to cry about the week before I have a book release, I am officially declaring comment amnesty on yesterday's post about the situation with the cats. Thank you all so much for your kind words and advice. Your support means worlds. But if I try to answer every comment, my head will explode, and nobody wants that.
Too right! Last time I looked it was in several hundreds.
Personally, I don't expect you to answer every comment (or even more than a fraction of them when things get long). If someone is asking questions, it's nice, but when we're just making random comments to a post I don't expect it. Indeed, I'd rather you didn't if it interferes with more important things (like eating, sleeping, petting cats -- oh, and writing!). (Yes, I can understand the impulse to answer every comment, I tend to on my posts; I handle that by not posting much...)
