Could I ask a favor of my fellow DUers?

[Mythsaje]

I've got a short story in a contest from Amazon.com over at Gather (gather.com) and I just don't think enough people are reading it and/or rating it. Those who have are obviously enjoying it, but it's just not enough.

So I'd like to invite all of you over to check it out.

Gather.com is a new web community similar to myspace, but for grownups. I've already posted several of my DU-approved political essays over there and received some very positive responses. I think it's a good place for liberals to hang out, though I do know there are some nitwit righties there too.

Anyway...if you all could go over and read the story and rate it according to your tastes and conscience, I'd appreciate it.

1. Done.

10. :hi:

[Mythsaje]

2. Thank you...

Now would you believe someone else went over there and must've given it a 1? Not brave enough to announce him or her self either here or by comment there.

Probably a freeper.

Ah, well... ;)

3. You're a fine writer. Pay that person no mind.

:thumbsup:

8. Thanks again...

It doesn't bother me all that much. It seems as though there's always someone ready and willing to take a whiz in the punchbowl. LOL

Usually we know all to well what stripes he wears.

4. I am reading it right now

with breaks as I am at work and have to pretend I work in between. So far I like it a lot.

:thumbsup:

7. We can't even get on the internet at work...

Probably to keep us from doing exactly what you're doing. LOL

Enjoy!

9. I need the Internet for work

so they can't take it away from us. And I do get my work done nevertheless.

10. We have an intranet...that's all we're allowed.

My wife gets to do nearly anything she wants on the net while SHE'S at work.

5. Just to let you know....

...I read it and thought it was great. I tried to let you know on that site, but it kept rejecting the password that I had given it. Never-the-less, it was great!...:thumbsup:

You have a lot of talent...:thumbsup:

[Mythsaje]

6. Thanks!

And I know about passwords. My email program gave me twenty minutes of grief tonight for no reason I can understand... Sheesh.
