Saweet! This blog is probably one of the best parts of my day. Keep up the awesome writing.
September 29th, 2005 at 1:13 pm
lucky you~
September 29th, 2005 at 1:42 pm
Congratulations, Belle.
After our dialogue yesterday, I wondered if you would write a post about writing, what rules you try to follow, what insights you’ve found helpful etc.

“Gotham Writers” is the best thing I could have ever done for myself as both a writer and a reader.
September 29th, 2005 at 2:10 pm
Wow. You’ve caught fire in what … 2 weeks!
Congrats! It could not happen to a better person. Ole Grand-dad would be happy!
September 29th, 2005 at 2:15 pm
Hey Belle,
Congrat! I just read the BBC article and I am astounded to know you work for Fox.
I will have to read more of your Blogs.
I read your Blog entry from yesterday and I very much enjoyed it.
I am new to Blog but I am coming back to yours as often as I can.
You can visit with mine anytime you like not quite as fancy as yours yet but I’m working on it.
Write On Girlfriend!
September 29th, 2005 at 3:23 pm

September 29th, 2005 at 4:14 pm

September 29th, 2005 at 4:46 pm
hey. i was wondering if you could take a look at my BLOG and maybe help me out with my writing. i think it’s great writing, but it seem to lack a consistent rhythm…any suggestions would be great!! Thanks.

Congrats!

OMG! Congratulations! Keep up the good work!
September 30th, 2005 at 2:00 am
Belle, your sites like spicy tuna rolls– even though I know I shouldnt come back for another– I do- and it always leaves me wanting more!
Keep on Keepin on for the Southern Girls! http://beardshalls.blogspot.com/
September 30th, 2005 at 2:08 am
Oh, ma Belle,
Those blue eyes must be shining now!
September 30th, 2005 at 2:33 am

September 30th, 2005 at 3:28 am
Wow Belle… that is so amazing! Congrats girl and so deserving. I love reading your blog! It’s the highlight of my mornining. We here in South Africa love you too.
Candice
September 30th, 2005 at 3:29 am
Love me?
September 30th, 2005 at 3:29 am
rectifying my mistake…
it is supposed to be morning not mornining!
September 30th, 2005 at 8:08 am
How very cool!
Love reading your entries.
I’d love an honest opinion from you on my blog.
I’m just getting started and would like to know I’m headed in the right direction.
Thanks for your time.
Have a great weekend—-I’ll actually be at Shea stadium on Sat night. I’ll toast you from there!
September 30th, 2005 at 10:22 am
After reading the BBC’s comments, I was delighted to disover their accuracy. You’re a charming writer with a style to be praised. Long may the belle keep tolling.
September 30th, 2005 at 10:43 am
i linked to u~
September 30th, 2005 at 11:48 am
Belle, congratulations!
How does Fox take your newfound celebrity? CNN once asked Kevin Sites to stop blogging!
Ah! that’s the new world order. It’s good.
Keep blogging, keep writing, keep sharing1

Looks like the gushing spilled over into the mainstream. And all I have is my foot in my mouth. Touche Belle. Touche.
That’s (too shay) but I don’t have that little thing that goes over the e on my keyboard.
September 30th, 2005 at 1:13 pm
Waht can I say, us Brits are suckers for new blood haha
September 30th, 2005 at 6:11 pm
to the person looking for tips on rythmn in their writing, try interspersing your typing with short bouts of drumming, or brisk handclapping if you don’t have space for the whole kit.
September 30th, 2005 at 7:52 pm
I’m concerned that your candid stories about a specific news channel may not be a career enhancing move (even if you are no longer employed there).
Have you heard from their lawyers yet?
September 30th, 2005 at 11:07 pm
I am new to blog culture. A friend not so new to it advised me that posts well under 400 words are the only ones people read. I instinctively thought this was wrong, and Belle, your writing proves that it’s the quality of the writing, not the length of the post that keeps people reading. I’m going to continue doing what I’m doing. Also going to make a little extra time in my horribly busy existence to keep reading Belle In The Big Apple. It’s good stuff.
October 1st, 2005 at 1:35 am
The Britts are not only digging but are awe-struck. There are other reviews on the way.
October 1st, 2005 at 2:07 am
You need to stop sucking on that bic and get you some real d*ck.
October 1st, 2005 at 5:27 am
Belle, I followed the link from blogger. You write Ok, but there’s no real insight or depth to your work. I hate to say it - but mention Fox and everyone’s interested. Your writing on it’s own is unexceptional, and your story’s… what? dating in Manhattan? Oh, never heard that before. Live a little and get outside the box and maybe you’ll have depth. At the moment you’re a cliche fittting into a traditional, sweet literary pattern. It’s nice, but I won’t be coming back.
October 1st, 2005 at 10:00 am
Haha thats great.
BTW great writing keep it up, And theres one thing the big apple doesn’t have the the south has. And thats great southern women, sure there are a few, its just so hard to find “y’all” up there in that big ole city.
October 1st, 2005 at 10:35 am
“Bend,” where is your site? I’d like a little sample of your writing since you critique mine oh so eloquently…
October 1st, 2005 at 12:24 pm
It couldn’t happen to a better blog! Way to inspire!
October 1st, 2005 at 1:10 pm
congratulations!
personally, i love your writing ‘n all those stories… dating stories?? hey!! you live in NYC, girl… it’s part of it… whatever your blog falls into, it’s your blog. you can do and write whatever you like in there.
miss nyc so much
October 1st, 2005 at 1:44 pm
Us Brits have good taste
. Well done Belle that’s great.

Before “Psychic Blonde” throws stones, maybe she should learn to write a complete sentence (and a grammatically correct one for that matter).
As a Southern girl, I was personally offended by her comments about the South, until I looked up some of her blogs. They are hysterical. I am astounded to read that she is not only a “psychic” but also a “playwright.” Frightening.
Constructive criticism is helpful; rude inane commentary is not. Why must you be so nasty? Life is too short to be so bitter and discourteous.
It reflects poorly not on Belle, but on you and your upbringing.
October 1st, 2005 at 10:31 pm
hi…congrat belle…
i told you that im a big fan of yours? im from chile…and even when i can’t read or wrote a perfect english…i understand something of your columns…

If you’re looking for innappropriate men I can point you in the right direction.
October 2nd, 2005 at 6:57 am
Keep it up girl. Thumbs up from the UK. This is good stuff
October 2nd, 2005 at 7:11 am
Oooh, well done. The BBC are ace, I have great admiration for their high standards and professionalism. I blogged for them for a week, here
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4670099.stm
and that was what got me writing my blog to carry on the tale.
Watch site traffic go mad!
October 2nd, 2005 at 11:22 am
I don’t quite understand the angry troll comments…are they trying to be “oh so EDGY” and “different”? If you don’t like the blog, there’s only about 800 thousand billion other ones you can peruse; it’s not like Belle is forcing you at gunpoint to come here and give her traffic!
I for one think the blog’s interesting enough to come back. I would follow the BBC’s advice, though, and take precautions against getting “dooced.” The blog is entertaining, but probably not enough to lose a paycheck over
October 2nd, 2005 at 11:50 am
Sorry, “Psychic Blonde.” You and your psycho ways are just a little too much for this blog.
October 2nd, 2005 at 2:48 pm
real comments seem to be too much for you. Maybe you can just look at your made up comments here. I see what this is. They didn’t write to me but I don’t think I want to be on this with stupid people like you. I was putting on there before I was sorry I wrote it but not really. You are really stupid and it is wasting my time. I can look at others but yours was the one that was there as if it was special and it wasn’t or I maybe wouldn’t have written anything.
You all just can’t really do anything or get anything and you take it out on me. I know I’m a good writer. I just was not taking it as seriously as you. I don’t want to put a diary on this.
October 4th, 2005 at 2:02 pm
Congrats!
Just wanted to say, I’m a fan and have been following your writings for some time. Keep up the great stories!
Thanks for sharing and making my work day go by with a little more excitement.
