Alas, I've gotten fed up with spammers of blog comments -- if they'd stick with spamming my most recent blog posts, I could easily find and delete the spam, but they post on old blog posts and it takes me forever to hunt it up and get rid of it. So for now, at least, I'm turning off comments on the blog. If you'd like to comment (and also find out when I post, since it's become sporadic of late -- something that I promise will change soon, but still -- join up on my facebook fan page (http://www.facebook.com/Beth.DeSombre.fan); I always post there when I put up a new blog post, and you can comment away in that location. I hope that hostbaby (my web hoster) will be able to come up with a better spam-preventing (or spam-finding) approach -- they're quite responsive as a web hoster -- but until then, no comments. Stay tuned, though, real blog posts will come soon.
