Dearest Story Spot readers,Here at the close of 2008, I’d like to humbly extend my personal gratitude to you for making this year — the maiden voyage of THE STORY SPOT — a brilliantly fulfilling one. Because of your loyalty, your enthusiasm for the site, and your continued sharing of posts among friends, I am inspired anew each and every week to bring you interesting and relevant tidbits to fuel your creativity.
Some of you are new to writing in all its forms and some of your names we recognize from your accomplishments on screen and in print. All of us, wherever we are in our life of learning, share a love for this nutty pursuit of thrilling, zinging, wondrous story. Watch for the expansion of our service offerings in 2009 with the addition of some very exciting names to our roster. Hopefully they, too, will be inspired to share what moves them in the world of storytelling.
Thank you for all you’ve given me. I wish you all continued joy and success in your creative explorations in the new year. Read, write, and come back here to share your thoughts. THE STORY SPOT would not thrive without you, our readers and Twitter followers.
Happy Holiday Season and a story-filled New Year!

Just a quick reminder to give a click on our GOOD READS widget. You’ll find our curated reading list of notable story-related blogs including that of the wildly popular screenwriter, John August.
The MENU button will show you what’s on tap and you can scroll from blog to blog by using the arrow buttons. Visit your favorite writer’s blog, sign up for their feed, and tell a friend. Your readership (as it is here) is always appreciated.
If you have suggestions for additions to our GOOD READS reading list (especially if it’s your own blog!) do send it along. And, if you’d like to offer THE STORY SPOT content on your own site, you can get your own free, automatically updated widget right here at SpringWidgets.
Good reading!
Who knew? It’s so very exciting to have 100 story enthusiasts with us here at THE STORY SPOT via the Twitter service. We’re relatively new to *actually* using this simple yet powerful service (though we’ve been interested lurkers since Day One). It’s been brilliantly rewarding to interact with you all in this meaningful and immediate way. So thanks everyone.
This week, Blake/Evenlake, the man behind http://domesticfather.com and http://evenlake.com became the 100th person to follow THE STORY SPOT via Twitter. To celebrate this completely random yet momentous occasion, we awarded Blake with a gift of a free story consultation service. He seems happy about it all so that’s a good thing. We’re quite thrilled ourselves. Congratulations, Blake and thanks for coming along for the ride.
To the rest of you out there in Lurker Land, through the end of 2008, Twitter followers of THE STORY SPOT may purchase any one service from our menu and receive 20% off the listed price. Yep, that’s right. To get this very special offer, send a direct message via Twitter to @thestoryspot with the service you’d like to purchase. We’ll get back to you with your 007-style discount code. But you must “follow” to get the goods.
Tweet Tweet, y’all. Spread the word.
