RULE 1 Put the award logo on your blog.
Rule 2 Answer 7 questions asked by the person who nominated you.
QUESTION 1 Where do most visits to your blog come from?
Mostly they come from the USA. It’s a big place after all. But I absolutely love the fact I have followers from Italy, Spain, Holland, Ireland, Singapore, Dubai, The United Arab Emirates, Germany, Iran, Russia, Armenia, Canada, India, Iraq, Switzerland, Poland, the Ukraine, France, Turkey, Greece, Peru, Chile. Brazil…oh and Australia, the UK, to name some of the places. It makes me feel not only very cosmopolitan, it makes me want to wish you of all the best of for the season– to paraphrase the legendary Dave Allen, whatever god goes with you.
QUESTION 2 What is your favourite sport?
Drinking.
QUESTION 3 What has been a special moment for you in 2014?
Well landing the contract for my next book was pretty special for me, especially as I shopped for a new publisher and that was pretty nerve wracking.
But…the arrival of this little fellah here was the absolute best.
Being a glammie is cool and you can see that having pulled his first baby girlfriend he’s studying the blurb, looking for tips!! (I never took the pic by the way before you think this is shameless promotion! My daughter did for a giggle and sent it).
We also moved house this year and the one thing about that was the importance of being able to sit my family down at the table at Christmas. It’s not my gothic dining room like last year..I ain’t even got to decorating it yet, but I did set the table earlier.( Cos I am BUSY )
and everyone has a stocking on their chair as you might be able to see! SO we are good.
QUESTION 4 What is your favourite quote?
Quote or saying? My fav saying involves rude things with ducks. ( Here spelt correctly) Quote…? Hmm. Do I have one? Sorry, that is not the quote. I like Incy Black’s quote……
FALL DOWN SEVEN TIMES STAND UP EIGHT.
But the older I’ve got, the more I’ve also come to think of that Tennessee Williams quote in the Glass Menagerie…Blow out your candles. It is a wonderful line and I totally understand why it is being uttered. I’ve just come to the stage where I now say, Light your candles and let them burn brighter than ever for the day the will come when they will be dark.
(I could reword this along the lines for the day you can’t light a frigging match! ) Seriously Enjoy life. It’s what you have.
QUESTION FIVE. What was your favourite class when still at school?
Well…that’s kinda difficult seeing as I never went a lot. Probably drama.
QUESTION SIX. Anything you had wished to have learned earlier?
Uhm. Everything happens for a reason.
QUESTION SEVEN What musical instrument have you tried to play?
Well now, I can play six but telling you now the one I got chucked out the class for trying to play was violin…… Ok it was for laughing at the racket…
