Early in a blog fiction it may make sense to limit comments so as to keep the introduction and start going down a certain direction.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1007343730975032915/9106822620026477987/comments/default/7478988743142260204'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1007343730975032915/9106822620026477987/comments/default/7478988743142260204'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://blog.blogfiction.org/2009/05/no-comments.html?showComment=1242609240000#c7478988743142260204' title=''/><author><name>DustinM</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03281139322075488545</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='12558373782396972913'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://blog.blogfiction.org/2009/05/no-comments.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007343730975032915.post-9106822620026477987' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1007343730975032915/posts/default/9106822620026477987' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007343730975032915.post-3768237744638053693</id><published>2009-05-17T16:44:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2009-05-17T16:44:00.000-04:00</updated><title type='text'>When I wrote the first story arc for my blog I dis...</title><content type='html'>When I wrote the first story arc for my blog I disabled comments, since I wanted tight control of the story and had characters and situations I wanted to introduce in specific ways.
