Hi Bridget. Welcome to blogging! I heard about your blog via my friend Rosemary Behan who I gather is also your friend. I'm an aspiring writer who left my 8 year office job almost a year ago and am still trying to figure out what to do next! Your blog looks interesting, I look forward to reading more, and I'm just about to become your first follower! I'd love it if you could read my blog too and let me know what you think. It's just random ramblings really, but you can find it at www.theseasidescribbler.blogspot.com. Happy writing!
Hannah.
The blogosphere actually exists -- amazing! Like your blog and have just signed up as a follower. Love the picture of the west pier.
i can see you're doing a lot of classes at the moment but I just want to tell you about one I have been running at Brighton Unemployed Centre Families Project or almost five years....drop in writing class on Monday mornings £2 a session 10.30 to 12.30. Never know who will turn up - lowest is 2 and the most 15. Average about 7. Eclectic mix some students have low literacy skills, some are published and performing poets -- it's a really warm and supportive atmosphere.
Doesn't start until the 11th I think (must check!) It's in Tilbury Place off Carlton Hill (lots of other classes & services here - www.bucfp.org)
Hi Bridget, and welcome to the world of blogging. It is a marvellous thing, I have met so many wonderful writers this way - it really expands the experience. But needs controlling, or it can take you over!
I wish you a very Happy New Year - and am in the midst of a very buzzy blog tour for Short Circuit - see, blogging is also great for spreading the wrord about our books.
Check out the tour stop tomorrow at the wonderful Asalted blog, run by writer Sara Crowley.
And come and write a guest post for my blog - email me...- what would you like to write about???
love
