status check - amused (am i always amused lately?)
background ambiance - same old, same old
blogs are all the rage lately, at least when it comes to the puzzle of who writes them.
you should all feel relieved to know that i do nothing to conceal my identity in my writing. i am, and shall always be, clearly and unmistakably kate hudson.
of course.
first the washingtonienne buzz, now rance (note the link). rance is, according to the blogger himself and the subsequent news releases i've found today, a supposed a-list hollywood celebrity actor-type. he has a tripod account (tripod? who uses tripod for popular blogs?) and posts cryptic stories of being a celebrity on the west coast. his tales are now followed by a pretty large number of readers, while he's supposedly been approached by several liteary agents to write a book based on his posts.
the stuff is interesting to read and i'm sure i'll be following it on a semi-regular basis, now that i'm aware of it. and yes, part of me wonders who it could be - and if it's not some celebrity, i'm impressed by the ruse.
and the guest blog from grace is genius. switch orlando bloom in for eric bana and it's perfect.
but it shows that i've been blogging about the wrong things, that's for sure. a woman has a blog for a few weeks about her sex life on the hill and gets a book deal (according to the washington post). rance has his blog since december and is reportedly being approached to pen a book.
hello!?! here's a semi-interesting blogging gal (or, at least, a gal who's had some semi-interesting experiences in her time) who's been posting for over three years now ... where's my deal?
AND - the layout of my blog is a million times more pleasing to the eye.
contact my people (by clicking on the "write the writer" link, as i am my own people) - we'll do lunch and eventually peak at no. 1 on the times bestseller list.

note: while i still believe jessica cutler deserves neither a book deal nor a playboy spread, i will say that i have been snickering under my breath while reading rance's words. this guy/gal is a riot - i highly encourage checking out the blog. i'd still be bitter about being overlooked, should i see a bound, covered rance product at the local bookstore, but i'd buy it and read it nevertheless. at least he/she can write well.
Hey there - Well hey I am sure you will get your book deal in due time. Its those who speak for real and get "discovered" a little later that last longer. How long can ones sex life entertain the world? Though it may be interesting and sometimes humorous reading, bottom line is "most" of the population knows what sex is but how many know the person behind the story? So i would say you're doing all right with what you have to say. :) MC
