    This is a well-respected writer's forum:

    You might want to consider adding it to your lists which I'm finding very useful. Thanks for all the hard work.

    Are you interested in those who publish online? I consider this method an excellent choice for writers not interested in conventional publication. My YA fantasy novel Mortal Ghost is read regularly, and I'll be serialising my new YA F/SF novel Corvus shortly.

    This may not be for everyone, but I'm convinced there is a place for good self-publishing in e-format, especially in light of the growing popularity of e-readers.

    Hi Lee, thanks for jogging me about e-publishing. I must be honest -I'm a bit blind to e-publishing developments - although I have got E-Reads in the sidebar here. Good suggestion which I will follow up. Thanks again, regards.
