Your poll is a really good way of letting your followers know what everone else thinks is important (as well as you, of course!). I’m interested in most of the things you write about, although I’m obsessed with ebook promotion right now. I’m a voracious reader. Even while I’m writing, I never go to sleep without reading a rew chapters of a good book.

Yes, Millie, I do rely on the polls to inform my blogging activity…
I hope you took this week’s poll and I hope you entered something in “Other” to indicate your interest :-)

I did do the poll – but not the ‘Other’. I’d have to have a think about that. You already seem to cover all the things I’m keen to learn more about. I’m the world’s worst at promoting myself and my books, so I’m always looking for advice on promotion.
Well. it’s 11.10pm here, so I’d best go and read for a while or I’ll never sleep! Thank you for replying to my comment.
