Sidebar Notes     Internal Links     External Links     Through my window


    Sidebar Notes - This AOL/AIM journal's sidebar has four sections:
All About Me, Recent Entries, Other Journals, Favorite Sites.  The
information in the first was once more extensive, but I have moved
it to S H entries.  Although the most recent 10 entries are kept out
of archive space, and so can be scrolled to, AOL/AIM does provide
hyperlinks to them in the second Sidebar section.  Apparently a 50-
hyperlink maximum is allowed in each of the remaining two sections.
What is in mine is not stable.  That is, I do delete & replace.  Those
in the first of these are nearly all poetry blogs.  Those in the second
zip mostly to general sites, one of which is a help site for/ any who
use HTML and need to know the ASCII code for characters such
as the section sign (§).

Internal Links - Moments ago 53 of these were removed from the
links page for my 1976: in 2006 sonnet opus, and replaced by an
archive note.  3:57 PM

External Links - It wasn't until near the end of May that I began
in earnest to link to other sites, but most of them pertained to the
topic of my post (entry).  In all cases, as I've already said, I felt
that what I found there was worth reading, and therefore worth
sharing.  But sharing with whom?  From what I've been able to
determine so far, most of those who have encountered my blog
are not the kinds of visitors this blog is meant for.  So there are
a few who come here whose visits please me, and I do not see
a day when there will be more than a few.  That is okay.  This
is a blog of one person's ongoing, one person's investigations,
one person's thoughts, one person's creations.  Loneliness is
my milieu.  Reclusiveness is my penchant.  I take online trips
from here in order to learn and bring some joy into my life.  In
this blog are numerous autobiographical posts.  Do not assume
something about me from a few posts.  I am quite diverse.  If
I am such a hermit, I hear you ask, why am I revealing myself
as I am?  My answer is:  Whether or not what I reveal has a
value beyond my passage, I believe every human passage has
value.  Love me or hate me, what is here and will yet be here
is a partial record of who I am.  Because I'm a writer I, yes,
someways/ promote myself.  There are very few writers who
do not.  Writers also/ promote other writers, other creators.
The promoting I do is next to nothing compared to what some
others do.  Long ago I became dissatisfied with publishing in
the traditional way.  The Internet, for all its limitations, affords
me the freedom to follow my muses.  I am Brian A. J. Salchert,
and Sprintedon Hollow is not/ a fake blog.

Through my window - Generally hazy and calm with rising
temperatures, but at AM 8:17 frost still covers the grasses
of this complex's yards.
