My name is Sean DeWitt and I am a newly accepted seminarian for the Diocese of Austin, TX. Currently, I am working as an intern for Catholic Charities here in Austin. I am in charge of our blog and social networking, and I was told by a Dominican friend of mine, Fr. Philip Powell (author of Domine, da mihi hanc aquam <\/a>blog\u2014yes I am one of his minions), that I should ask if you would put a link to one of my articles on your blog.<\/p>\n

I have been following your blog through the summer (the length of my internship) and I have enjoyed it a great deal. It would be much appreciated if you could help me increase traffic to our blog site.<\/p>\n

Thank you so much.<\/p>\n

Here are some articles I have done.<\/p>\n

The War of Ideas <\/a><\/p>\n

Solidarity<\/a><\/p>\n

Pro-Life equals Pro-Human Development<\/a><\/p>\n

A Word on the Encyclical<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(I\u2019m gonna kill Fr. Phil for this.) I so totally should not be doing this since, you know, what will the other Dark Lords think<\/em><\/span>? And if I didn\u2019t have 182 Followers to his paltry 170-whatever I would so totally be making this DeWitt guy flatter, grovel and beg. However, since I am infinitely superior to Fr. Phil and his manky little empire of bloggery, I suppose I will be clement and say, \u201cWhat the heck? Check out Sean\u2019s site.\u201d<\/p>\n

All you other Dark Lords, stop laughing! I\u2019m not being nice. I\u2019m\u2026 acting strategically. Yeah, that\u2019s it. That\u2019s the ticket. Strategically.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll be in my Tower, brooding.<\/p>\n

That is all.<\/p>\n
