Author I’m excited that THIS is the 100th post on Danblewett.com. It’s a milestone that I’m pleased to report, mostly because I wouldn’t have written this much had not my readership continued to grow, and the feedback continued to be good. Not to say that I’m driven solely on the approval others, but it’s nice to know that people are getting something out of my musings here in cyberspace. After all, I’m in this position largely because of how much stuff I have tried, and how much failure I have experienced. Good thing is that it’s all become something useful to others, which is all you can ask for in one’s failures and tribulations.
So, as I pondered what to write for the big 100, I wondered how many of you out there know anything about me on a personal level. I don’t write this blog as a tribute to myself, but rather just as a training resource, using applicable experiences that I might have as helpful examples. I also wondered if anyone out there cares (the answer is probably no). Yet, I’m gonna force feed you a little taste of what it’s like to be this internet magnate that I am, as seen through an interview with me. Now’s your chance to learn the answers to questions about me that you neither asked nor care about. Enjoy!
