Bonnie is organising the next ‘Love our lurkers day’. JMRPT has supported this event in the past and I will be posting a message on this blog on October 13.

Dear Friends,
I’m writing to invite you to join in our fourth annual Love Our Lurkers day. Those who participated in past years will recall how much fun this event was. We hope this edition will be the best yet.
The idea is that each of us, on one designated day, will post a message inviting our silent readers to leave a comment and introduce themselves. If we all ask, even the most bashful might be inclined to poke their heads up.
Each year, we’ve seen more blogs and more comments.
Year Blogs Comments
2006 46 919
2007 83 1444
2008 87 1971
Better still, we met many, many great people. Quite a few remain regular readers to this day. Several have even become successful bloggers in their own right.
This year, we are inviting 231 bloggers to participate!
If you would like to join this effort, you need only post a delurk invitation on your blog on Tuesday, October 13. If you choose, you can send me an e-mail and tell me your post is up. I plan to post links to everyone’s messages.
I tried to find e-mail addresses for as many bloggers as I could, but there were several that I wasn’t able to locate. If you know anyone in our community who wasn’t notified, please by all means invite them to join us.
The message you post can be anything you like. Convince if you can. Beg if you must. Arm twist if you dare. Sweet talk if you please.
This year’s LOL should be a fine time for everyone. I hope you will consider joining us!
With warm regards,
Bonnie
