So being one of the "ordinary American" contributors, chapter 12 is dedicated to my When Tara Met Blog entry on my trip to Vegas (why that one? I have no idea, maybe because I use a lot of slang?). My full name is up on the right hand corner of each page in that chapter, which is quite cool like I'm an author, but then again, I guess I am the author of that particular content, so I'll take it.
I was contacted last year by the editor of the book and he asked if he could use my blog entry and of course I said yes. I later had to sign a contract that I didn't really read, and now I got a copy of the book sent via Japan. Thus, my global infamy begins, victory is mine!
I think the picked that entry b/c of the "twins" pics. :)

Dear Ms. Tara Settembre,
ReplyDeleteI bought and started to read this book. I am happy to be able to write a comment to the real author of the article. I have posted pieces of my writing for a year. The purpose of my blog WAS to brush up my English skill. However, these days, I enjoy writing something “discursive”. I register the RSS of your Blog page and will visit again and again.

Gosh, you are just SO cool! You're everywhere!
