Off to read Marilyn's blog and, as I've had the absolute joy of visiting Kakadu, to download Annie's novel. Wonderful photos. : ) Rae Cowiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10213969901991611348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855283511538601375.post-63541614508862945082016-05-29T10:42:20.903+01:002016-05-29T10:42:20.903+01:00Thanks for including me on your lovely blog, Linda...Thanks for including me on your lovely blog, Linda. I've just arrived back from the Italian Lakes so seeing this was a lovely welcome home. Sometimes, when you discover a new author, you make a connection and that's what I did with you. It's great that we've been able to stay in touch through our mutual love of writing and reading. You inspired me to carry on in the difficult pre-publication days and I'm just so glad that I did.Guernsey Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10351729766544892085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3855283511538601375.post-4328674430338091162016-05-29T08:56:18.796+01:002016-05-29T08:56:18.796+01:00I totally relate!

There are the new friends I have made and the old ones I find it easier to keep in touch with.
