Crazy?

No, you're not crazy (well, maybe you are... what do I know), but in this case you're right; sometimes my essays do change after they've been posted. One of the other readers has somewhat pointedly asked about this... artistic license seems to get you nothing anymore. I must confess this blog is somewhat of a stream of conciousness sort of thing, but I also have a conscience, and after posting, I do feel obligated sometimes to go back and tidy up some of my more messy stories, so the blog probably does sometimes have the feel of a literary quicksand. I'm not sure what surprises me more about being called to task about this: that anybody would be huffy about me editing my posts on the fly so to speak, or that anybody would re-read one of my posts in the first place, so they'd notice.

Comments:
If you use a feed reader such as Bloglines to notify of new content on a blog, it can be set to notify you of changed entries as well. This may be how the reader who wanted to know about your changes found out about them.
 
Huh. I refine a lot of my stuff, as I see things that can be tightened up, or made clearer, or just spelling corrections... kind of like gardening, actually.. hmmm...
 
Jenn...glad to hear I'm not the only one.

Kathy... so THAT explains it; makes more sense than my idea that somebody is so in love with my prose, that they are re-reading everything several times.
