Re: "PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop posting this info on the indiewire blogsite!"

Anonymous commenters, unless they are saying something positive, are generally a waste of time and are deleted or otherwise ignored but I just received this comment, worth replying to, on my post announcing the Date Number One 7/12-18 run in Kensington:

" PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop posting this info on the indiewire blogsite!Anyone and everyone already knows about this from your daily postings. In addition, there's no reason for you to constantly hog the indiewire blogs with all of your rantings/ravings/"memories" concerning your little movie. Indiewire isn't just a promo site for your movie - it's suppoed to give information and news about indie filmmaking. If you want to advertise, then buy an ad like all of us other indie filmmakers.BTW...I don't think you're dvd will EVER come out...you've supposedly been working on it for 8 months! Good luck to you anyway.

And here's my reply:

1. indieWIRE selects blogs that they like to carry on their site's Blogs We Love section, and, I assume that when they no longer like a blog they will drop it. My blog is not an indieWIRE hosted or edited blog, but an independent blog that they point to by including a part of my posts on their Blogs We Love section & blogs page & their daily e-mail.

2. I do not control what gets posted to iW's blogs site. I just publish my blog with stuff that is important to me on it, and that, at the moment, is DNO stuff.

3. In addition to DNO stuff, I include posts about other films & filmmakers on a regular basis at my blog.
