Ever look at your followers or friends list and find there are less than the last time you checked?
Does your brain do trapeze loops, wondering WHY on EARTH anyone would unfollow or unfriend you?
Was it the last post, so in-your-face-Jesus-lover, that offended them? Was it the snarky comment you made about people who weigh 98 pounds designing clothes that make you look like a hippo in leotards? Or simply that they found they're following too many blogs or FB peeps, and had to cut out one, so they drew a number and yours came up?
When this happens to me, I like to believe it was the last item on my list. Not that I'm afraid of offending anyone by my faith in Jesus or my sarcasm, but I hate to think modern people are so narrow-minded.
At any rate, it's all part of the social networking game, don't you think? It's good practice for receiving rejections from editors. They really don't dislike my writing, my style or my voice--they just have too many manuscripts piled up, and they had to choose one at random to chuck out the window. Okay, now I'm happy again. Let's get on with life.
Anyone of you been unfriended, unfollowed, or rejected? Please tell me I'm not alone.
