May I keep it vaguely on topic by first asking you to please tell Annie that there's a fella in England she's never heard of who wants to wish her a happy birthday? Also, congratulations on her writing: I don't think her show airs here yet but I'll watch out for it.<br /><br />But to now leap completely away from the thread, may I ask you a question for a book I'm writing, please? I'm deep into a book about blogging for writers: it'll cover all the technical stuff and I'll explain bits about money, but I am really focused on encouraging writers to write blogs. Which means I am really looking at what doing this gives us.<br /><br />For instance, I post regularly and that gives me the same discipline I've had before when BBC columnist. I think it's also improved my writing as I've reached deeper into myself and into topics that interest me solely in order to avoid a blank screen.<br /><br />I realise that you've touched on this before and I will quote you, particular your recent comments on anonymous trolls, but I'd really like to get your opinions on two specific points:<br /><br />1) What does this blog give you personally? What does it mean to you?<br /><br />2) Why blog at all? You could do audio or video podcasts, you already do radio, you already reach millions – actually, billions – through your TV career.<br /><br />Perhaps you also get the benefit of having that daily deadline, in which case I might even be helping you out by saying I need to know by Friday 5 September.<br /><br />Does that make this a Friday question? I'm better at this commenting than I thought.<br /><br />If you can and you fancy helping my book, thank you. If you can't or you don't, thank you anyway and I'll be recommending your blog regardless.<br /><br />William<br />wg at williamgallagher dot comWilliam Gallagherhttp://williamgallagher.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-36821832539779081662014-08-31T02:09:48.895-07:002014-08-31T02:09:48.895-07:00Happy birthday, Annie!Happy birthday, Annie!Johnny Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13302545167970532080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19336675.post-86492269848513894012014-08-30T21:19:15.494-07:002014-08-30T21:19:15.494-07:00Hey, wait a minute, Ken!
