"An opinion that goes beyond "Cute outfit!" is appreciated. If a person regularly comments and they too have a blog, and we have gotten to know each other's respective styles through commenting on each other's blogs - of course I'm more likely to check out their recommendations."

Nothing concentrates the mind like a firm deadline, and a little voice in the back of my mind reminding me that, "If you don't write, you don't eat." We all want to be respected and appreciated, but when you get a big honor like winning the Pulitzer, people start to look for your work in a new way with higher expectations. Today, the best thing about having won is when I get a nasty comment from some internet troll I can remind myself of the Pulitzer and say, "Well, somebody appreciates me".
