A few things I wanted to share:


Wildflowers at Sunset

Breathtaking
is an understatement for this magical photograph by the talented and lovely Lana! I have been a fan of Lana's art and photography for quite some time now and every time I visit her blog Eye Candy: The Photography of Lana Gramlich I know that I am in for something special!


3D1D






How long would it take you to write a book? Do you think you could write one in 3 days? You would have to be mad to write one before an online audience is 3 days wouldn't you? Meet my mad Twitter Friend MCM who will be writing his next book Typhoon as project 3D1D which you can follow online via his Website, Twitter account @1889ca and on the blog The Dispatch

This is going to be a really exciting project and a great feat when he pulls it off! I am looking forward to joining in by answering a random series of questions in the competition MCM is running as he goes along, and in doing so, helping to play a part in the story development.

Chapter 6 is being sponsored by a banner for Refuge of Delayed Souls
If anyone would like to sponsor a Typhoon Chapter there are still a few banner spots remaining.

    I heard that Ray Bradbury wrote Fahrenheit 451 in 7 days, but to write one in three ... wow. Is caffeine involved? -:)

    Charles - It is really an exciting experiment and most enjoyable!

    Throughout he is asking 3 questions for every chapter and readers have a chance to tweet their own answers which he then writes into the story. The story develops from there so you know it is live.

    You are both a lovely couple - perhaps one day, if you are ever in the UK you can both meet up for a 'beer' with Sir H and myself :)


    Billy - Great to see you!

    LOL - NOPE! No caffeine so Janoda is drinking coffee on his behalf ;)


    Melissa - You would love it! Join Twiter NOW and we can tweet in real time lol


    Lana - My pleasure - you are a fantastic photographer and a great artist!


    Vesper - 51 Chapters - a really exciting an enjoyable story too! 18 Chapters up at the moment.

    MCM is an accomplished writer - he has several books to his credit and a TV series based on one of his books in the USA.
