Doggerel Day: A big thank you!

I'm not going to write this entry in verse, as Doggerel Day has been over for a few hours here. But I just want to say that seeing all that silliness yesterday really helped turn a day that was bad and going more bad by the minute more bearable.

I don't have time this morning to link to all the Doggerel Day posts I saw on my friends list yesterday, but I will try to compile them at some point before the day is over, and I'll put them into another public post. You can help: if anybody on your friends list who might not be on mine posted an entry for Doggerel Day, please comment to this post and put the links here?

And, I've now unscreened comments by folks not on my friends list to the original Doggerel Day entry, so go and have a look if you like, to see what people wrote there as comments.

Again, thank you very much. I know that in the end all the people who wrote doggerel yesterday didn't do it just for me-- but I'm pleased to know my little pick-me-up apparently can help other people as well. I'm pleased as punch my little attack of silliness went as far as it did. A hearty thanks, also, to the good people of #filkhaven, who helped spread it into near-memeishness.

It's another grey and rainy day in London, but tomorrow I'm working from home, which means a two-stage bus trip to Oxleas Wood for some heavy duty brainstorming in my satellite office. ;-)
