Nah, I kid, I kid.

I've been reading your blog with interest, actually. I must admit I'm looking forward to seeing your review of Iron Council. I read it a few years back, straight after Perdido Street Station and The Scar, and I'm curious to see what you made of it. Certainly sounded like you were enjoying it, if you want his babies! tongue.gif

I read Mustard's blog back when he first suggested doing reviews of our contest entries (to see what I was in for, lol) - saw where he had written that and sprayed my keyboard and monitor laughing. Mustard's sense of humor is wry, you can miss it if you read too fast - but that one jumped out of the page, lol.

Lol! Aaah, but I'm from the north of England, so my accent is closer to Sean Bean than say..erm... someone posh like Richard E Grant...

You're from the North? Who let you out of your mill?! tongue.gif

And now I'm expected to do an Iron Council review? I'll get right on it after I've fulfilled my obligation I've made to a bunch of strangers on the internet that I'll never meet.

Not really!!! I don't sound as posh (or as foppish) as either of them.

Yeah, yeah. I've actually lived in Huddersfield for the last ten years, so you're not far wrong there, loads of mills around. Of course they've all been closed down for I don't know how many years...

Funny story, I can tell American accents apart, but was flabbergasted when it was pointed out to me that there are different Hispanic accents.

I love those free books.

Just got done with one called Demonsouled. Had some typos here and there but was enjoyable. It is a medieval fantasy.

I'm thinking about doing the free publishing thing on Amazon. An ebook with my name on it? Sounds awesome.

Why yes it would. Of course- you are ALREADY on MY Kindle Fire. (Yay me).

The general strategy I have observed is write a book series, release the first one for free, and charge for the others.

If you're like me, reading the first book is great, until you see there are more. I read the first one and never make it to the second in any series because I can't afford the others.

Well, I mean I can NOW, but before, I couldn't, lol
