		<description>Of course, Merchy :) Don't worry about WordPress saying that your comment is "dirty", it's just that comments from new people usually have to be moderated first due to spam. :)</description>

		<description>Thanks for the comment, Lorelle, and I loved your article. I'm always looking for interesting literary/writing articles, and as both a blogger and a fledging writer I found your article to be quite relevant and quite an eye-opener. I don't think I've actually looked at either critically enough to consciously switch into the proper "mode"!

Thanks for writing &lt;em&gt;your&lt;/em&gt; article. :)</description>

		<description>Well done! And thank you.

Actually, the show and tell was based upon the kindergarten "show and tell" time in school. You bring something to show, but you also have to "tell" about it, a great lesson in presentation and public speaking. ;-) 

The issue of writing "blog style" and other writing styles is a hard one to define, and you've done a good job. As a professional writer (editorial and technical), I struggled for a long time to switch between web writing and other writing styles. Web writing requires redundant usage of keywords but, as you so beautifully said, redundancy is boring in creative writing. Web writing is about sound bites, getting your point across quickly and in small chunks. Creative writing can flow through the pages in paragraphs of all shapes and sizes.

There are so many differences that I have to kick my mental self when I switch between the online and offline writing modes. Great job in helping to point them out.

And thanks again.</description>
