Further to the last post about newly-agented author, Roger Hardy, in which I bemoaned his lack of an online presence, I'm delighted to point you in this direction.
Roger appears to think I have supernatural powers. I'm not about to tell him otherwise. He also thinks that I'm the kind of person he'd like to get drunk with. I ain't sayin' nothin' on the score either.

Oh, thank you, universe!
Almost exactly a year ago, I published this post. In it, I said:
I'M CONVINCED THAT THE DAY WILL COME WHEN I HAVE A GEN-U-INE ROGER HARDY BOOK ON MY SHELVES THAT HAS THE LOGO OF A MAJOR PUBLISHING COMPANY ON THE SPINE.
Today, I'm delighted to say that Roger has just made a giant leap forward in his journey towards publication. He emailed to say that he has been signed up for his sixth book by Peter Buckman from the Ampersand agency. The two met at the York Festival of Writing in 2010 and I'm sure they'll make a wonderful team. I'm now sprinkling fairy dust on Peter's efforts to secure a mega deal for Roger.
There's still no link for Roger, though I'm sure that's going to change at some point. But there is a link to a lovely post on the WordCloud that has me blushing so much you could make toast on my cheeks.

Being a Lazy Blogger
Actually, that's not strictly true. I'm not being lazy, just veryveryvery busy. And, before you ask, that doesn't mean I've abandoned the blogosphere for Facebook and Twitter.
(Though if you twist my arm, I'd have to confess that I am there quite a bit. That's the difference between a post that takes seconds and one that needs more thought and time. You bloggy people are s-o-o-o demanding.)
Anyway, I'm just popping in to let you know that you can have a sneaky peek into my glamorous lifestyle, thanks to Michelle Teasdale at Winning Words. And, yes, I 'met' Michelle through Facebook, so there.
Also, East Dulwich Writers' Group have a couple of gigs coming up, the first being this Sunday as part of Bromley Literary Festival. Further details of EDWG events are on the group website.
There's lots of other stuff I'd love to share but I'm afraid it's going to have to wait ... Mainly, because I need to dash off and do said 'other stuff'.
If you haven't already done so, please track me down on Facebook and Twitter.
I look forward to seeing you there ... and there ... and sometimes here.
