My work will die with meWhere do you write?In my study/home/beside the sea/anywhereWhat else do you want Word Clouders to know? eg: do you have 9 cats / like paragliding / eat nothing but tinned fish / work in the bath / live in Kettering?Looking back life has taken me down so many paths - lots of experiences that I would never have imagined. Not the journey I expected.

"Bren" commented on mike's Blog "A bit of a mess".
I did a search online Mike but all I could find were poems railing against the Industry. They thought the train lines slashed through the countryside and that the workers were treated badly. Even Tennyson writes in a similar vein. I sudied this ...

by Winter H. Bree 1 month agoWas it Dorrance Publishing? I'm feeling a little harrassed by them right now. Another email this morning, after I told them 'No'.
And that was you on my Facebook, I see. I was wondering, but I thought it might've been a Cloudy =) -
by Winter H. Bree 1 month agoAh, thank you. The song is from a little-known TV show called 'Dead Like Me'. I love it - but they cancelled it after 2 seasons *sigh*
I didn't think it should be fun rejecting a publisher... Maybe I should have? It's a rare opportunity, isn't it? It was a vanity publisher anyway. They would've published my book, but it would've cost about $10K American. No thanks! =P -

by Jill 2 months agoThank you for the tree tip, Bren. Will try that, as well as pruning, which it does need anyway, as getting a bit too large for the spot.
