Hi! I’m at work surfing around your blog from my new iphone 5! Just wanted to say I love reading your blog and look forward to all your posts! Carry on the superb work!
Hmm is anyone else experiencing problems with the pictures
on this blog loading? I’m trying to find out if its a problem on my end or if it’s
the blog. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet
effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appeal. I must say you have done a great job with this. In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Chrome. Excellent Blog!
Good news! The original YoungWriter Magazine’s series of Guest Author interviews is back online at http://www.mystworld.com/youngwriter/
Authors and poets such as Philip Pullman, Malorie Blackman, Grace Nichols, Terry Pratchett and dozens more were interviewed by children. There are some real gems of information there for all aspiring writers.
