Just got a heartwarming message from an LJ user in my inbox:

Just caught these blogs(well the Arthur and Minty ones).

Have to say fantastic, fantastic job. Such a pleasure to read. If I'd not been informed that they were fake before reading them I can easily see myself being fooled. In retrospect there are some things that might have been done better. Having at least two of the three fake blogs on lj would have helped you no end as It's so much easier to get readers here then it is with an unlinked new blog out in the ether. All in all though it was awesome. Would have loved to have been able to read Stephen in full but such is life.

A great deal of Minty is fantastic as it feels so genuine. Many times while reading it despite the fact I knew it was false I forgot that and felt like I was reading a real persons words. I guess part of that is that she had to deal with less of the supernatural than Arthur but it's still a great achievement.

Thanks so much for having had a hand in creating something so entertaining.


It's from this discussion.

Nice.

It is to my eternal regret that I was far too un-shit-together at the time to join in, though I had a great time cheering you guys on.

...sigh... I never get included in the author list... even though I wrote quite a lot of Minty's entries.

Has anyone been watching the freakishly popular Lonelygirl15 soap opera on Youtube? It reminds me a lot of what we did here.

It started out as a typical video blog about a homeschooled girl, but slowly viewers became aware that her family was in some sort of Crowleyian cult called the Order of Denderah. Now her parents have disappeared and lonelygirl15 and her friend are on the run.

They've even given her friends their own blogs like we did with Minty and Stephen.
