Re: Am I still a friend?morgailJune 18 2006, 14:31:13 UTC
I think you are...you should be. I have you listed as a friend. When you're logged it, can you see any journal entries besides this one and some from back in January?
I thought I should do it because anyone can read the journal otherwise. It even comes up if you search the right words in yahoo or google. And the idea of people I don't know (and have no idea that they are even reading it) are reading it is just creepy. And I can also write without censoring out stuff that identifies me.
The only problem is that people I know who like to read it and aren't LJ member can't read it:(

Yup...I can still see all your previous entries.
I am a little creeped out, too, knowing that just anybody can read what I'm writing. But at the same time, like you mentioned as well, I have family & friends who read mine who aren't a LJ member, and I know they get a kick out of it because instead of posting their comments, they e-mail them to me instead.
Argh. What to do, what to do...
I wish there was an option to keep it private, but still allow non-members to access your blog. Like using a password.
Hi! I bumped into you at a community journal & just a moment ago got your response and answered it (about 2 weeks late, sorry!). Anyway, I thought I'd add you as a friend if you don't mind?
I conceived that a person were to write an inspired story with Arthurian Legend as the basis of inspiration. Now, should this person write Uter II (Arthur) as a computer game designer of relative means and Morgause the Younger (Morgan LeFey) as a doctor and webcam art performer, then would this be unfair to Morgause?
Of course, the names might be shifted: Uter II to Gunther (with umlaut) and Morgause as Margaret. This has been done elsewhere, though.
