Spam
I got the first spam on this blog today, in a comment on Favourite Words. It's only one and I hope it's not a trend. If it is, I may start to use comment moderation; so if you come in and find your comments being moderated, I apologise in advance but at least you will know why.

I would recomment you don't bother with comment moderation. the word veri should keep nearly all the spam away.
That's a good point. I'm probably over-reacting. I was just surprised to get any spam at all on such a small blog.
Almost half the comments on my WIP on the crapometer are spam. And the same exact spam to boot. But there's no word veri there.
I may have to add word veri to my blog if the spammers ever find it. With billions of blogs out there? What are the odds?
I think someone was posting to blogs of people who go on the bloggeries forum. I stopped going there as I'm mostly interested in writers' blogs and I'm certainly not interested in blogging to make money.
