I’ll think about this. Perhaps set it up as a blog that requires a password, but I’ll give anybody the password who asks.
As you can glean from my EverQuest post linked below, I tend to make a lot of very specific references only intelligible to the friends that I’m writing to. Referencing specific conversations or events from our shared history. I would feel weird doing that in a broader blog context, and I really don’t want to sacrifice my ability to just count on my readers having a shared understanding.
Yes, that’s a good point regarding having to be mindful of the shared history and not wanting to have to change that to open it up to a broader audience. I guess the easiest thing to do would be to write the same and have the para-readers like me accept that they just won’t get certain references.
