Well...looks like you learn a lot when you actually check out the counter stats for one of your sites, specifically Storyteller. Had I known about this little tidbit, I'm not so sure I would have made the announcement that I was giving it up, but I did, and I'm sticking by my decision.

Here's the skinny: I went to my counter page because I got an email that Storyteller was getting a lot of hits (not surprising seeing as how I just posted about it, right?) and that's when I saw this odd occurrence. It seems that [livejournal.com profile] sadbhyl's 2004 Writercon report was very popular. Hmmmm. I follow the links....to Wikipedia. Huh??? OK, it's a page about Rupert Giles. I'm still scratching my head until I get all the way down to the bottom where it says references. And there, in that spot, is one reference...[livejournal.com profile] sadbhyl's report.

Wow.

Isn't that interesting?

You want to take Storyteller off my hands now, don'tcha? *g*


P.S. It's also referenced on Ethan Rayne's page, but at least there it tells you what it's referencing: [Jane Espenson: "She absolutely believes that Giles and Ethan had some kind of sexual history together."]

ETA: OK, checking into this more thoroughly and it seems like it's some type of scholarly thing? It's gotten hits from a lot of universities around the world -- US, UK, Germany, Australia, Canada, Sweden, and Italy (that one's from a spa though). Just very...strange.

It's very cool...and very surprising at the same time. You never think that something you write, something so innocuous as a quote from a writer, would make such an impact somewhere. I know [livejournal.com profile] sadbhyl didn't. Her tummy's in knots.
