Spam and Stuff

Greetings Dear Reader’s,

I hope the day has greeted you kindly. I apologize for the lack of updates recently but with summer here my schedule has become crazy. Articles have to be written, kids need to be entertained and vacations need to be taken. I have been working hard at doing all these things.

Recently the kids had a great time at the Space Derby hosted by Pack 90, our boy scout troop. It was fun seeing all of the rockets fly as far as they could.

Flagrant fiction, my blog about creative writing and writers, was updated this morning with new information about contests currently underway. These contests are great for new and aspiring authors as well as authors who have been around the block a time or two. Check out the listings here at Flagrant Fiction Blog.

I’ve been working more articles for Examiner.com where I am the Celebrity Charity Examiner. New articles will be added this week. I was lucky to be contacted by a PR rep who let me in on an upcoming event, read more about the Noble Awards here.

A book for charity is also in the making that will be available in the US at major book sellers on Sept 1, 2009. Proceeds from the sale of the book will go to the Selena Diana Jenkins International Human Rights Project. Read more about Room 23 here.

I would like to thank you all for the comments that you leave here on my blog/website. The comments keep me going and wanting to give you more. However, I’ve received a lot of spam on here. From now on any comments left that do not have a legitimate name will be deleted. No website coding will be allowed nor will titles like “How I lost 30lbs in 30 days” be posted on this website. I don’t mind linking back to your site but the spam and scams need to stop. Thank you.

I hope your summer is going well and that the sun is shining brightly in your life.
Eternally,
Linda St.Cyr

   There is obviously a lot to know about this. I think you made some good points in Features also.

   Interesting blog post. What would you say was the most common problem?
