Twitter

23Apr13

For the T post of the A to Z Challenge, I had to post about Twitter. Some people LOVE Twitter. Some HATE it. I’m in the love-it camp. I’ve been addicted to Twitter in the past and it can be a MAJOR time suck, but I’ve worked out how to be active without it compromising my writing […]


2012 was the year of challenges. I wanted to finish the second draft of my novel, write another book as part of Camp NaNo and expand my reading with the help of the Eclectic Reading Challenge. What to do with 2013? Last year, one of the challenges I contemplated participating in was the A to […]


One year on

08Oct12

Last month I completed my first full year of Twittering and blogging. Celebration time! My writing group are to blame as they suggested I started a blog and joined twitter and facebook and any other social networking site I could think to join. Last September, I took the plunge and signed up to Twitter and […]


I’ve been nominated for some MORE awards. I know, go figure! Two more nominations for the Kreativ Blogger and three for the Versatile Blogger. I admit that I’m behind on acknowledging the blogging awards. Better late than never. I’ve created a page imaginatively called *awards* to show my appreciation and list all the awards and […]


This is my 50th post. YAY! I started blogging back in September last year and didn’t think I would get to the half-century.

Conrad Miller and his blog: A Side Of Writing for nominating my blog for this award. If you haven’t visited Conrad’s blog you should check it out. He blogs […]


When I started blogging and tweeting back in September I was not expecting the volume of emails that would follow. I know that I have the power to switch off notifications or only receive blog post updates once a week. I could disable messages when someone follows/tweets me or sends a DM and I don’t […]


Thanks to allaboutlemon and Le Artiste Boots my blog has been nominated for The Versatile Blogger award. I started blogging back in September and this is the second award I’ve been nominated for after the Liebster Blog Award. I am trying to blog about my writing, reading and throwing in some personal bits and pieces. The rules of this […]

Liebster is a German word meaning dearest, and the award is given to up-and-coming bloggers with less than 200 followers who deserve some recognition and support to keep on blogging. I […]
