I want to live with my characters a bit longer than a few days. <br />Good luck with your story. <br />I tried to win the book your side but saw Ivor was already there. I LOVE Ian McEwan!!Laurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11112458658109887868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052453698252224336.post-48182451674211243982010-03-19T22:01:11.838+02:002010-03-19T22:01:11.838+02:00I come around here often even though I don't a...I come around here often even though I don't always leave a comment. I did have a story submitted for the Caine, although I do not think it falls into the category they tend to have a bias towards. What about you? I know your One World story (The Rich People's School) should be in the running.AM-C https://www.blogger.com/profile/06652884591759867938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052453698252224336.post-78124080586207828262010-03-19T06:53:55.097+02:002010-03-19T06:53:55.097+02:00Good on you, Lauri.

My husband bought it at Kwa Nokeng (not your river- the Limpopo) at the Martin's Drift border. <br /><br />Sue- You're right though lately I'm feeling a bit exposed. I have a friend who writes for Mmegi and though I know I need publicity I sometimes feel I'm out there a bit too much. Mostly because most of our writers don't get covered by the media. That is going to change if I have my way. <br /><br />Val- it will be weekly. Daily would kill me, I'm a little shakey with weekly with my current level of indiscipline, but too that has a lot to do with no deadlines breathing down my neck. I like deadlines. <br /><br />Not Hannah- I'm not sure what the Voice puts on their website. If it's up I'll certinaly let you know. <br /><br />Thanks everyone. I plan to include news about Botswana writers (everything an acceptance, a new book, how the book is selling, speaking engagements, etc) so let me know about it. Use lakubuitsile@gmail.com. I'll also include writing news of the rest of the continent too. <br /><br />Really excited (as if it doesn't show). :)Laurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11112458658109887868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052453698252224336.post-39422575297046451492010-03-15T14:55:03.912+02:002010-03-15T14:55:03.912+02:00Congratulations!

I look forward to reading it - I don't usually read The Voice at all, but will now have more of a reason!<br /><br />I've been away so long from the blogosphere, and have been really enjoying catching up on your blog - interesting post on Louis Nchindo, and I loved your walk with the dogs, and of course That Tea-set!!karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12694425567973843826noreply@blogger.com
