I can't believe I have been so lax with my blog of late. So many other exciting things going on.
Struggling Authors my most fave website after Reggos' has now got a complete new look to herald the arrival of Spring. It's all green with lovely blades of grass.
Thinks... why do we call them blades I wonder) Oh well life's too short to ponder.
This site is all about helping and supporting unpublished and newly published authors. The administrator is Richard Grayling and his blogspot is http://strugglingauthors.blogspot.com
The Struggling Authors website is http://strugglingauthors.co.uk which you should know by now as I have plugged both of them shamelessly for so long now.

A STOP PRESS item - watch out for another interview, coming shortly, conducted by my good self especially for SA.

Recently, through Authonomy where my book Eye of Erasmus is based I came across Tim Roux and his publishing company. The web site is called Night Publishing. http://www.nightpublishing.com
Their slogan is: Good books must be published.
There is also an online international writers site called Speak Without Interruption. Go to http://www.speakwithoutinterruption.com The owner Bob Grant has collected together some of the best writers around. Several of the contributors will be having their work published on Night Publishing in the very near future.
So try out some of the links if you are an aspiring author such as myself.

In the meantime, the sun is shining and it feels good to be in Spring, which is where I started in this blog :-)
Oh and nearly forgot to rub it in - Arsenal are into the quarter finals..........Wahoo !!!!

SNOW !!!
Snow snow and more snow. Lovely to look at but so disruptive. Buses have stopped running, no post because the posties can't get out. Didn't we all start out with legs? Thought so. How do countries like Poland, Russia, and Canada fair? They get on with it. We have 5cm, yes that is 5cm.
Heaven forbid it comes over our wellies while we clear paths etc.

Ok I've stopped whinging now.

Reg has a new name for his blog. I went to take a peek recently to see how he was fairing and couldn't find it at first. All sorted now though and I found him.

Oh and by the way Reggo baby ARSENAL beat LIVERPOOL 1 - 0 I think. RESULT !!!!! Yahoo. However i think Liverpool are ahead of us on points :-)

So to Authonomy and Erasmus: Last couple of days I was ranked at 176 and then I took a look yesterday and i'm ranked at 225. Those pesky yanks beaver away overnight as we snooze in our beds dreaming of fame. LOL.
Still keeping the faith though. All comes to those who wait long enough.

Well I can't believe how much time has passed since my last blog. What happened to this month? It's shooting past. Christmas came and went - I was ill yet again. Another bout of flu symptoms. I firmly believe I work in a sickness infested building now. Everyone seems to develop cold sysmptoms at the drop of a hat. When we all worked in the main station there was hardly any time taken for sickness at all.

So Erasmus and Authonomy.....
He was number 8 in the Young Adults chart. I took two days off and he has reverted to number 34. AND 103 books have been reviewed on my section alone in the two days. Lots of catching up to do then. Now it can be clearly understood why I have to neglect other sites including this one in favour of Authonomy.
Still getting some brilliant reviews though which is great.
If you have a need to view, you can go to www.authonomy.com put Eye of Erasmus or my name (teresa geering)in to search and it will come up. click on the book avatar and you can read the book or the comments below it.
If you can't be bothered to do that my website has a selection of them including warts and all.

Right then back to reviewing books on Authonomy.
