I am? Well, I should probably get on that…

Anyway, for reasons unclear to me—because I don’t think I’m that interesting or worthy of something like this—but appreciated regardless, Daniel D’Addario wrote a profile on me for The Awl.

So, if you care to, go forth and read it (but try to ignore the negative comments, even though I wasn’t able to do so).

I’m actually completely surprised by the tone of many of the comments. I cannot figure out these reactions. I guess, in part, as has been discussed TO DEATH this week, people really do find it easy (both personally and technologically) to make fun of people on the Internets!

Ahhh! Too much meta-enabling, not enough post-post-meaningful love. However I do find the irony of the blogger-coming-to-the-big-city as the story The Awl/D’Addario chose to write meaningfully. Is the future of blogging importing meaningful teens/20-somethings/college grads from “real America” to keep the NYC blogging scene “grounded”? OK sorry, I’ll stop.
