I actually did read it, too! You have a very good point here - all too often dismissed much too easily.......There are VERY serious questions to be asked..

Thanks very much Joe. x

Tom's interview is brilliant isn't it? On his Seaside Man blog - amazing the difference photographs make.

Hi Tom - I am a horses behind :(

Forgive me.

I've been having a crappy day and completely forgot today was the day.

Now I am mixed between feeling really happy that I am on your blog and feeling like a git for not realising today was Tuesday.

Even though I've been Twittering and taking part on #poettues which should have been a clue DUH!

I'll pop over now and then start Tweeting the link and behaving like a properly gracious guest.

I did read all of that.

I only agree up to a point. I don't think people are any more unhappy now than they have ever been, I just think it gets talked about more now, and more publicly as well.

I also think the escalation of violence in some media is to be expected. Many people seem to like being shocked/horrified and so a spiralling upwards is inevitable. I think it's reaching the limit now though.

I published your interview today, have you seen it yet?

Tom.

I think you are right!
Hygiene doesn't mean sterilising things. :)

Good luck, sounds like a very interesting book.

Hi banana, you have a smashing blog, really enjoyed dipping in to it, I'll be back.

I have just published a free website, today, just for my own fun, where I have mentioned your blog, http://BLOGSandWEBSITES.yolasite.com and I hope that it will eventually lead others to your blog.

If you finish them and post them up I'd be delighted to read them.

Have you read mine by the way? She asked subtly ;)

That's a great achievement. I have several unfinished bits of creative writing in my cupboard and you've spurred me into digging them out again, thanks.

There was quite a bit of jumping when I saw the review - I'm too tubby for actual leaping - but the urge was there! LOL

Hi Vikram,

I'm looking forward to our interview too.

I'm having a lot of fun so far and can only hope that the readers and my blog pals will enjoy it as much as I do :)

Banana, I am thrilled for you! What an accomplishment! It will be fun to follow your adventures and, of course, see more of the book. I am interested in your Blog Tour and hope that goes well. I have just started adding guest poets on my Expressive Domain blog, and later, when you need another place to plug your efforts, I would love to share a bit of your work there. Keep us up-to-date at Poetic Asides. It boggles the mind to think you have seven books in the works. KUDOS!

Hi Pal :)

I've got 3 definites in that I have agreed to do the blogs and know what dates they are going up on - and I've got about four 'planned' in that the bloggers concerned have kindly agreed to host me but we haven't set a date yet.

Hopefully as the tour continues people will be encouraged by the interviews gone before to invite me onto their blogs and so on.

I have seven books to write and bring out so this needs to be a marathon rather than a sprint :)

It all seems to so exciting for you. I didn't know what a blog tour was before you wrote about it, lol. Have you got lots of interviews lined up?
