Random 100 Results plus Other News

The 100 Random People MeMe (or woolgathering's more aptly named "Festival of Friends") came to an end today.

Out of the 100 people I added, 14 added me back. Additionally, 2 people who were randomly wandering LJ Land were intrigued enough by the experiment to join my friends' list. On top of that, one of woolgathering's friends noticed that I was friends with her brother and sister-in-law, sparking an additional friending, and someone who had deleted me from their list back in September added me back.

As far as I know, three other LJ users took part in this experiment. I would be curious to learn their findings.

In other news, I've been in contact with the editor of a queer publication in America called "Distant Horizons" and I'm working on a short story to send to him. And my friend Henrique, whom I'm visiting for a week while in Brasil, is buying tickets for us to see Echo and the Bunnymen in Sao Paulo on the 29th of April.

I'm waiting two more days before I start getting rid of everyone who didn't add me back. And I'll still give yet another week to the people who are fairly interesting. So far, only 1 person has added me back, and 2 people have left comments asking me to remove them, one of whom gave the reason "Hitler's an asshole."
