Thank you for following my blog! Just out of curiosity, was there anything specific about it that made you click that little follow button.

I saw you write fiction on there and I am new to this blog thing so its always good to try and build a little writing community so I can can get and give feedback. Anything I can do to help other fledgling writers like myself and its good karma I guess to help and receive help in return.

Well I’m always willing to share an opinion or two, if you want an opinion/critique on something just drop me a note. I can always find time from somewhere, it’s normally hiding at the back of a cupboard or under the bed.

Good luck! I’m amazed at how many places you’ve lived. I live about 15 miles from where I was born and that’s about the extent of my travels! Oh, but the stories I could tell you about those 15 miles 🙂

Hey, any chance of you adding a “follow” button or giving me some following-for-dummies advice on how to get notice of your posts? Pretty please?

The FOLLOW button should just be on the top tool bar

Hmm. WordPress tells me I’m following, but they aren’t sending me email notifications. Will go do some sleuthing. Thanks 🙂

FYI: The Follow button in the tool bar only adds the blog to your WordPress reader; it does not sign you up for email notifications. To get emails, you have to click on a Follow button that is specifically added to the site. (That’s also the only way anyone who’s not a WordPress member can follow your site.)

Luck, lots of luck! I hope things are going as planned – personally I’m finding that the discipline of posting (almost) daily does help to kickstart (or just plain kick) my novel writing.

You’ve got a great thing going here. It looks like you are well on your way in your book. I like that you are sharing your favorite lines and lines you wished you’d written. You’ve given me an idea of including “out-takes” from my current story on my blog.

You know, I’ve been following you for a bit and I used see you on my timeline keeping count of what you’re doing, I’d think ‘what an annoying idiot’. But then after a while, whenever I come on WordPress I’d find myself popping by for a visit and clicking to see how you’re progressing, just because I’d like to know that at least someone out there is trying at something. I really, really, hope you’ll get whatever you’re writing about published (and let us know) because I’d really want to see what you’ve been keeping from us all these time. All the best!
Love,

Hi! Thanks for following my blog. Your life seems pretty interesting, quite similar to mine actually in nomadic sense. Though I haven’t travelled abroad, I have shifted base within India so many times that I don’t know anymore what to say when someone asks me “Where are you from?”
Pls check out my other blog, http://www.acuriousarmywife.wordpress.com, where I write about my adventures as an Army wife in India. Cheers!

I saw your name and had to check you out. Just in case. You do know you have a famous namesake? Footballing legend.
In fact his family down the line still stay in Glasgow and thereabouts. Masses of them. My sister is friendly with one of his grandchildren I think she would be. Nice to meet and greet. I think you may stay with WordPress. It has a lovely community.x

Today was the first time I’d come across your blog — Rochelle Wisoff-Fields used your jar of batteries as a prompt today (recycling the prompt from a few years ago, she stated) photograph for Friday Fictioneers today. So, I got curious, and here I am.
You sound like you’re leading the right kind of life. I hope all goes well for you. It sounds great.
