Is there one thread where we can reply to your blogs, Lawrence?

If so, I might think about spending some time with this.

I don't like to just hop into the individual book discussions with my comments on it.

You can send me a PM with a url, if you like.

Dear Wild City
I am so computer illiterate I don't know what a PM or a url is. Cris has allowed me to have a blog. Go to the members' blogs and at that screen my blog is Lawrenceindestin. You may leave your comments there. So far there are two posts. A posting space apparently only has so much room. Since I'm presenting my thoughts in Chapters and the last post appears first just scroll down to the first post to start at the beginning. I'm very happy my thoughts interest you. I look forward to your comments. Lawrence

Yeah, but I'm talking about 'replies' . . . I don't think we're supposed to just put replies on blogs into the individual books discussions.

Is there a particular place you want replies (responses) on your blogs?

Now, see up at the top of the screen where the first green strip is? Under there is a spot where it usually says 'you have no new messages'. It's between 'profile' and 'log out'.

Look up there and you will see that you DO have new messages. Click on it and you'll see a message from me . . . I just sent it so you'll know what PM's are.

I'll read your blogs later on - I think you're supposed to reply in that 'shout box' at the side. I'll put any comments I have there.

Right now, it's time for my nap . . . and a bit of reading.

(I even settled down to a bit of my own writing this morning - right prouda' meself!)

Roger that, I think we are now connected on PM. I agree about replys in book discussions. Later
