Two more interviews, an article in The Writer magazine and an award

I'm all over the internet this week! And also on quite a few doormats.

I was delighted to participate in a Q&A as part of the 'Meet the author' series over at the popular Lit and Laundry blog. Sarah and many of her readers are talented individuals who enjoy creative pursuits such as quilt-making and other crafts, and they talk about their interests and their home lives as well as talking about books. Hello to anyone visiting from there - thank you for joining me. I haven't started reading any of the Chekhov that I boasted about downloading for free from the kindle store. Just having his plays and short stories sitting in my 'kindle for pc' application makes me feel intelligent, so perhaps I will never need to open any of them and read them.

New York author Alice Yeh has just started a review site called Stimulated Outlet Book Reviews, and I took part in her first interview session. Hello to you if you're visiting from Alice's site.

I have also had an article entitled 'Why I love ebooks' published in the Writers Guild of Great Britain's magazine, The Writer. This has been sent out to members of the Guild in recent days, hence my claim to be on quite a few doormats. How many of those mats have a coin under them, I wonder? Mine has, and I have just had the most fantastic piece of writing-related good news this morning. I will share it when the contracts are signed.

Oh! And I was given an award by Lisa at herbookself. More on that later, as one of the conditions for displaying the award is that you must pass it on by naming other blogs that deserve it. I will think carefully and post something in the next few days. In the meantime, hello to you if you're visiting from Lisa's blog.
