As I’ve just been explaining to a friend, “things” are starting to get away from me a little. Tomorrow Will Come and It Will Be Just Like Today is drawing me in and I’m finding it difficult to concentrate for too long on other matters. Consequently, I’m behind on emails, blog-reading and the more sociable aspects of this Worldwide InterWebNet-thing we all love and, to a degree, depend upon.
I’m also concerned that my blog posts of late might not have been quite up to my usual (admittedly quite pitiful!) standard. I like to post something every day. It’s demanding, especially on top of working on the novel, but I have received so much support, appreciation and encouragement through Gary William Murning Online that I at least want to try to continue delivering the things people seem to enjoy.
I’d therefore like to apologise for not being quite as on the ball in these areas as I usually am and also offer you the chance to suggest topics you might like me to cover over the coming weeks. I can’t promise to do them all, but I’ll certainly give it my best shot. (Think of it as an early Christmas present… the socks that you’re elderly aunt gives you, perhaps 😉 )
Fire away!

You’re worth the wait, Gary!!
Thank you, Nienke! Which novel was that, incidentally? I’ve managed to narrow it down to two, but still not sure which one you’re referring to.
Oh, and I want you to blog about a certain unfinished novel… I’m still dying to know what happens!!!!!
Gary, I would like posts about the following things, please:
– Cherry 7-Up and why
– Hawaiian Tropic Models and why not
– Possible uses for Sarah Palin, G.I.L.F.
– Running with scissors
– A users guide to a 1987 Panasonic Betamax
– Is Angelina Jolie the ugliest person to ever be called ‘beautiful’?
– Moustaches. Will they ever make a comeback?
and finally
– Mr Freeze vs Rock Em Sock Em Robots. Which 80’s toy was better?
Yours,
Easy Amused esq
David, mate — did your mother ever tell you that you were a greedy child? You were the kind of kid who wanted the Mars bar, the gobstoppers, the Curly Wurlies, the midget gems, the Space Dust and Twix, weren’t you?
You can have one and no more. Choose now or you’re going home with nothing.
(The Angelina Jolie one does look quite promising, though, if that helps.)
No apology necessary, Gary. I’m glad to know you’re back to doing what you love and I’ll be looking forward to the finished product. Besides, I enjoy reading here, whatever you post.
Bye for now, and Bah Humbug! 😉
Hmmm… just one choice you say? Well the Angelina one is kind of the whole debate in a title, so i’ll go with moustaches.
Unless you have something about David Hasslehoff, a pig and some lard…?
Lottie: Glad you’re still enjoying it. When I’m working on a novel I sometimes feel as if I haven’t a whole lot left over and worry that I may not hit the spot quite so effectively. Funny how important blogs become to the writer, isn’t it?
David: Isn’t putting “David Hasselhoff” and “some lard” in the same sentence tautological?
