As soon as this thread is removed I’ll have my answer.

Your answer is right upthread.

Nothing prevents you from posting your full content and the owner would prefer it so.

That's cool, though.. keep on pimpin'.

I can fit you into my schedule.

Looks like an interesting book.

The book isn’t the point. Why the excerpt?

Why not an excerpt? It's not the end of the world to want hits as long as the poster is not spamming.
We have a lot of blog spammers, they post article after article without ever commenting.
Those are the blog pimps.
This poster comments and does not spam.
I hate blog spammers as much as you do but we have to be discerning about who is using this site to self-promote versus those are contributing to this site.

The reason I stopped spending much time on FR so many years ago is the tendency to eat its own. We agree on so much, but we’d rather pick fights with ourselves than the people destroying the things we care about. If anyone here read any of my works, or the writers I write about, they’d see that we share the deepest values in common. But some people have the right side of the bed against the wall so they have an excuse to get up on the wrong side every day. Too bad the conservative banner attracts just as many self righteous asses as the liberal.

To my mind blog pimps are those whose blogs don’t contribute anything except political opinions, and we have more than enough of those.

On the other hand, when a blogger has some knowledge or discovery to share, I appreciate the post and can forgive the link.

Too bad some of those asses are only here trying to score hits for their blogs.

Humble, I asked the admin about it and received the response that excerpting the blog is okay. So that’s all you’ll get from me in the future. Please direct your correspondence to admin in the future.

Do as you wish and expect a reaction.

No, I think I'll stick with you.

If the "admin" decides to start pimping a blog for hits, I'll provide equal time.
