As I blog about writing, it gives me the pressure to write. No writing, no blogging. If it helps selling books it's a bonus. Don't know how much it helps BEFORE you got a book deal, but if you build up a readership of say just ten people at least you'll have 10 people buying your book when it comes out.Louise Halvardssonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17038924529261834908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3876767643869305059.post-75989908270775214312011-02-01T00:26:36.291+00:002011-02-01T00:26:36.291+00:00Hi Michael

Trouble with my name is the first person who comes up is a disgraced House of Commons speaker, then a misspelled Irish politician. Oh well. By the way, Saturday 5th Feb, is national save our libraries day<br /><br />http://www.cilip.org.uk/get-involved/advocacy/public-libraries/pages/savelibrariesday.aspxRooineckshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16526946014450661611noreply@blogger.com
