There is something about having the actual book out there that just seems more substantial to me, more "free wandering billboard".<br /><br />Now, on to the issue of how I locate your interview.

Like many people, I was frightened of public speaking. But I'm really pleased I did it, because it wasn't too bad at all, and I now know I can speak in public if anyone wants me to.Lexihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14404818053292364819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6250078125607062288.post-76745457471965428082011-11-14T09:28:55.546+00:002011-11-14T09:28:55.546+00:00Wow, very cool Lexi.

I purchased Remix immediately (the power of media publicity) and was encouraged by the programme to set about adapting my first novel ready for uploading. Will need to think seriously about how to market it and spread the word, but many thanks for an inspirational few minutes.BOB HARVEYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230425785230285691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6250078125607062288.post-57567816823254734022011-11-13T08:18:51.202+00:002011-11-13T08:18:51.202+00:00Norm, that's amazing - I never thought you'...Norm, that's amazing - I never thought you'd be able to hear it in America.
