Vulgar self-congratulation

I’m not generally one to blow my own horn (much), but on the same day that my Wall•E post was linked by TechMeme, I have discovered that my Ficlets post has been blogged by one of my own Internet heroes, Wil Wheaton. Wil wrote, in the context of discussing AOL’s decision to end Ficlets.com:

A fellow Ficleteer, Chris Meadows, wrote a Requiem for Ficlets that touched me in a way that, if Loretta touched me, I’d say, “Oh yeah, that’s nice.”

And then he quoted me at length, and linked to the guide I wrote for archiving one’s own Ficlets.

Thank you so much, Wil. You’ve made my week.
