The title itself does, you are right, mean alot to me. I do appreciate your view though. And green? It reminds me of cricket - and I really love cricket! Have just toned it down a little so hope you approve!<br /><br />Take care<br /><br />StuStu Ayrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001940316941634308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597616283765482836.post-49534157307694972432011-11-01T11:58:59.021+00:002011-11-01T11:58:59.021+00:00Hi Stu.

If not, you should do so. Money well spent if you find a really good editor.<br />2. The title needs a makeover. I expect it probably means a lot to you, but it does nothing for a potential reader.<br /><br />And the blog: You seem to be doing all right without this next suggestion, but could you change the colour scheme. I have an aversion to green, and it's not easy to read.<br /><br />Best<br />JJAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04122270279975818113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597616283765482836.post-26382746635269472732011-10-28T17:50:09.186+01:002011-10-28T17:50:09.186+01:00Thanks so much for your comments Nick!

Fine suggestions as to what to do with the blog, and yes, Dagenham and Redbridge are indeed a football team, perhaps the greatest team ever...from Dagenham and Redbridge.....Stu Ayrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001940316941634308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5597616283765482836.post-30278150958383961432011-10-28T15:45:05.977+01:002011-10-28T15:45:05.977+01:00OK Stu, I'll try and answer your questions. Al...OK Stu, I'll try and answer your questions. Always a sucker for a questionnaire!<br /><br />1. I guess because you're in a similar boat as myself - trying to get somewhere in this industry which is notoriously hard to break into.<br /><br />2. Maybe more about what you're working on at the moment - being nosy, I always like to know what writers are writing. On a break? Planning a sequel?<br /><br />3. My name is Nick and I'm a writer. As we like to say, what I am IS what I do!<br /><br />4. Erm... pass, I'm afraid? Is that a football team? Two teams? My knowledge is sadly deficient in this area. But, I'll say I'm sure things will turn around for them!<br /><br />Anyway, keep up the good work - enjoying the blog!Nick Wilfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03841776353790635132noreply@blogger.com
