Well done Stef. A very promising start. :D

Be kind to me, it's my first ever blog post :)

A new post went up this morning for Bonfire night. Please drop in and let us know what you think!

Have you got any idea about what you might write for us Poppy?

Well...I could do some book reviews/ Blyton experiences...etc. I thought about maybe a book of the week each week??

Please tell me when to write them & how! I would be delighted to write for the blog! :D

How about "Poppy's Book of the Month"? A book every week might be too much work for you (and us!) If you like I can PM you a list of questions to answer as a guide for what to write about.

How does that sound?

I can write book reviews too. Or I can design a short quiz each month, where people can write their answers in their comments/or if we can fix up something better that will be good. Of course, Stef needs to approve and all. Say, a quiz with like 7 - 10 questions?

:oops:

I'm not sure a quiz would work on a blog Darrell. But I do have an idea which you can work on for now, if you're interested.

So now Poppy has something to do for the blog, and hopefully we can come up with something for Darrell to do as well. Is there anyone else with an idea who would like to contribute?

No need to blush Stef. And course I'm interested! You can PM me if you want. Only... try something that will be weekly/monthly. Not daily, for then I won't have time...
