Diary of a First Tattoo
Today I went for my first ever tattoo. It was a big deal for me, made bigger by the fact that I’m the sort of person who worries about every single thing that could go wrong as if all of them could happen at once. But it was also a big deal because I’d wanted…

Introverts Untie: Staying sane with Social Media
I appear to have completely failed to tell anyone about this guest blog that I did on Julia Knight’s blog. How to stay sane with social media so I thought I would link it now. I do, in fact, try to keep up with Twitter, Facebook, WordPress, Livejournal and my list of blogs I read in…

Unavailable for the weekend
Just a quick update to say that my ancient computer has become so hesitant and arthritic that it’s going to have to be rebuilt with a new hard drive. That’s going to take most of the weekend, so I won’t be around for a day or so. If I don’t answer your emails in that…

Waistcoat reduction
I don’t know if anyone remembers me blogging about my morris dancing waistcoat back in the day when I had only just started dancing, and I had to make my first one? I was a size 18, so I naturally bought a size 18 pattern, only to be told (when the waistcoat didn’t fit) that…

Branding Revisited
In my further attempts to narrow down the sort of things I’m likely to end up writing stories about, I have abandoned text and gone for a diagram. Lo! The Venn of Alex: So, we’ve got Plain Historical, Plain Fantasy, Plain Romance and Plain Mystery. Shining in the Sun is a plain romance, and I…

We’re posting love letters from our characters on the Macaronis blog and on the Speak Its Name yahoo group. Why not come along to SIN and contribute your own? Tweets and text speak are also welcome. After all if we’re letting our characters loose on the computer, I’m sure they’d want to try everything 🙂…
