Research and linking the second chapter

Sometimes I check on a blog called forksplit.com. Its written by a younger anonymous women living in new york. Her blog sucked me in because when i read it i feel like i know her.  Although she keeps a distance from her readers never replying to comments or there urging for her to share more. She posts on her own terms and it reads like a theraputic outlet. She often talks about her trouble with her parents. Her father is an alcoholic  and her mother is an anal retintive WASPy type. She's is a vivid storyteller and writes in a sarcastic confessional tone. She writes about a lot of tough issues like personal drug use, family relations and the distance she likes to keep from others. When she writes about these things it comes off so natural that it causes me to check back every once in awhile even though she posts maybe twice a month. This blog is a good humorous but meaningful read and i would suggest it to anyone.

I took a look a forksplit.com, and you're right, it is very easy to read. I can relate, too. I'll probably visit her a few times too.
