Does anybody have a mental picture of other posters? I imagine elegran to be small, slim, and modernly dressed.
I see Anniebach as a bigger lady with fair hair and glasses.

What do you think, and how right are you?

( You can tell I’m bored!)

Elegran the People's Friend have been buying up the stories as they are all free standing chapters. I don't feel under pressure to complete book 3 and have others on the go in PF. All a bit different. However, I'll report myself for advertising.

Before you suggest it Marydoll the Argy Bargy is not a suitable venue!!

Marydoll Jane is too modest to add a link, but here it is from 28 Jan 2016.

Have you been writing the third in the series, Jane?

Marydoll Wed 02-Jan-19 19:19:27

Yes, Jane, but some of us can't remember what we did yesterday, let alone in the dim and distant past! grin.

Oooohhh, I would be up for a conference. smile.

Jane10 that is a lovely photograph ,so happy and smiley.

Jane10 Wed 02-Jan-19 19:13:06

It's not exactly secret Marydoll! I did do a talk at the GN conference and also a blog post in the dim and distant past. Those were the days. Ooh is it time for another conference?

MissAdventure Wed 02-Jan-19 19:11:47

Ah, it was Jane Moore is was thinking of. (Even though she may or may not be a Scot)

Marydoll Wed 02-Jan-19 18:51:47

Jane, you are about to be outed! grin

Lisagran Wed 02-Jan-19 18:49:51

publishers blurb - are you a writer, Jane10? Lovely photo! You look so cheerful!

Jane10 Wed 02-Jan-19 18:15:53

MissAdventure would that be Jane Mcdonald? The singer from the cruise ships? Yikes. I couldn't live up to that!

Jalima1108 Wed 02-Jan-19 18:04:39

I think your username is brilliant callgirl1 wink

And Jane10 your photo is lovely and I 'see' your face whenever I read your posts!

I imagine Anniebach to be tall and very slim with rather wild hair (like mine grin)

MissAdventure Wed 02-Jan-19 17:52:10

Jane
I imagined you to look similar to the Scots woman who used to host 'loose women'.
Is she a Jane, too, or have I added that on myself?

Jane10 Wed 02-Jan-19 17:50:04

Get him to help you Fennel!

Fennel Wed 02-Jan-19 17:09:49

Lovely photo, Jane.
I've sometimes wondered what you look like. as we seem to have interests in common.
I can't do these photos, unless Husband helps me.

Jane10 Wed 02-Jan-19 10:56:52

Well rufus you asked for it. This nauseating image is of me being forced to smile for publishers's blurb.

Gonegirl Wed 02-Jan-19 09:59:00

I look old and surprisingly grumpy. Grumpier than I feel.

GabriellaG54, I wasn't like a sack of spuds as a child. I was thin and petite and didn't really grow until I left school, even at college one lecturer used to call me 'little harri'. One day I woke up and I was 5'7" so I styled my hair in a beehive and I looked even taller and people started to notice me.

Grandma2213 Wed 02-Jan-19 02:30:49

I was once told I looked like actress Katherine Ross, the girl on the bicycle in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid in the Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head scene. Since then I have avoided looking in the mirror so as not to spoil the illusion. I recently watched the Grinch with my DGC ...........

Was your nickname 'spud' at school and is your real name Maris Piper?

Don't be put out. There's a song 'Homely Girl', which says 'Homely girl, used to be lonely, You're a beautiful woman...homely girl. The guy wishes he had a place in her heart. smile

GabriellaG54 Wed 02-Jan-19 01:44:38

..and might I add (re MawBroon) always beautifully and appropriately dressed, perhaps on committees and board of governors.

Who looks like an ex band member Gabriella? ?

GabriellaG54 Wed 02-Jan-19 00:51:08
