Brilliant! Thanks so much for hammering home such an important message, and with so many laughs, to boot. I’ve struggled in this area, same as everyone else… As a woman, as a listener, as someone who’s been overly concerned about not taking up more than my share of airtime. Seriously, fantastic job shifting my thinking – so glad to have found you via SheWrites!

Hmm. Yep, guilty here as well.
I don’t say those exact words, no, that would be too simple. I am much more round-about and wordy in my apologies, to the point where I myself am no longer certain what I am apologizing for. (Which is probably worse, because even if people don’t get the apology part, it’s because they fell asleep halfway through it.)

It’s like Sparky said — there are SO MANY of those icky messages out there –you know the ones; they kinda sound like the internet version of an infomercial. And I SO desperately do not want to sound like one of them!

Actually, I am finding Twitter rather helpful for this: there is no way my apologies together with the link and the title would fit in the 140-character limit, so I have to choose between the apology or the link. Obviously, the apology wouldn’t make much sense without the link, so I am forced to leave it out.

Still, sometimes after posting the link, I wish there was an undo button. And that’s when I visit your blog and always find something that puts things back in perspective again. :)

Thanks!
