Have more than one blog and link it?

I had this idea the other day. Would it possible to have blogs with other blogging services that link together. So when you write a post on wordpress it automatically publishes on your other blogs giving you a wider readership. If it couldn’t link you could just cut and paste your posts across. I can’t […]

What is the point of Twitter?

I was first told to get a twitter account by my nephew when he got fed up of me posting about last year’s Eurovision on facebook. I know it’s sad, I watch Eurovision it one of the highlight of my year, posting disparaging comments about it. I did get a twitter account not for Eurovision […]

Blogging is …. free group therapy.

I used up a whole notebook!

A while ago I wrote a post about discovering how useful notebooks are. I know, but remember I am a bit slow, so trying to catch up with the rest of you. I have now finally finished my first ideas notebook, hopefully it means I am becoming more creative. More importantly it means I can now […]

International day of the slightly overweight blogger whose boat is broken.

I don’t want to sound miserably or small minded but is it just me or are there to many International days of things?

Hugh’s Photo Challenge: Week 6 – Unused

This is unused but definitely still loved. It’s my special addition Harry Potter books 1-4, a present from my dad. It sits on a shelf with my other Harry Potter objects, including my house glasses, Hedwig and wedding card from Emma Watson (yes she sent me a card on my wedding!). I no longer read […]

Seeking inspiration

Since I’ve started writing I have discovered I can’t wait for inspiration. I used to imagine writers getting constant eureka moments then rushing off to a computer to run of a book. I have had one or two of those but mostly had to do it the less glamorous way. Over time when I needed […]

True wizard, the New Blurb

I had a go at writing what I thought was a synopsis but turns out was the blurb for my book. I was told it wasn’t catchy enough and in the wrong tense. I’ve had another go at it. I don’t find them easy to write but here is my second attempt at it. Tybalt […]
