The thrill of reading the very first reader's comment

When I checked my e-mail today, I was surprised and very happy, to read a brief but pleasant comment about my Blog. A lady named Tara Marinello wrote:

Hi,
I came across your blog at Blogger.com. It is very well written and interesting. I like how you have explored the topic.
Thanks,
Tara

Positive and encouraging comments and feedbacks such as this will inspire me to write more columns, and help me to write even better columns in the future. Readers’ comments are always welcome. Even negative comments and criticisms I shall read carefully.
My thanks to Ms. Tara Marinello.

  2. Hi Stella,
    After I wrote my comment about Tara Marinello and thanked her for her e-mail, I have heard from others, too, that she had written to them also asking them to write articles for the AllVoices website. I now believe that she is a recruiting agent for AllVoices. So if she writes you praising your articles, take it with a grain of salt. You state that you did not even write in English, so in your case I wonder why she wrote to you. But at the AllVoices website, people do contribute articles written in Arabic, Urdu and some other languages that I am not familiar with.
    Thank you very much for your comment.
