Is it possible to do something similar for your patrons? Writing advice, editing work, or something you feel you're qualified to talk about?<br /><br />(apologies for the double post.

I admit to feeling a little dopamine rush when something I've said is even partially responsible for a post - even when it's something I've said that was kind of stupid.<br /><br />That said, just the knowledge that the comments are actually being read is enough for me to feel that making them is worthwhile. Specific name recognition is nice, but it's by no means required for interaction.<br /><br />As for collaboration... I quite enjoyed my experience on the podcast, and I've thought about launching one of my own. (Such would have to wait until I sort out the technical issues, but it's definitely something I'd like to do in the future.)Fuzzy Skinnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10606454596061907461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871409676946408069.post-86567058908280926902019-01-02T23:10:41.667-07:002019-01-02T23:10:41.667-07:00I've never sought name recognition.

But I am not trying to trade on my online presence in any way, so that isn't very helpful to you. <br /><br />If I do get mentioned, I much prefer it be for something I said or did on this blog or in your game. Whether it be positive or negative doesn't make a difference to me. <br /><br />I even prefer negative commentary, because it forces me to rethink my opinions and actions.

Or perhaps write a post on your blog. Or finally, collaborate on a post on your blog ~ edit it, counsel you on it.<br /><br />A nice fantasy on my part, but I don't think realistic.<br />Alexis Smolenskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10539170107563075967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3871409676946408069.post-55190309252901210332019-01-02T19:10:58.538-07:002019-01-02T19:10:58.538-07:00You have a link to my blog.

Additionally, when I agree with you, and I am right about what you are saying, then you are agreeing with me. So, I am seeing myself in you. As far as that goes, it feels good.
