small stones: the blog tour
In July
2008 I went 'on the road' with
small stones: a year of
moments to 20 different blogs - I had a blast!
The tour is archived below - visit the links for
a mixture of reviews, interviews, sound recordings
and other bits and pieces.

3rd Three Beautiful Things - my own three beautiful things (chocolate, a soppy cat and some blueberries) sit quite happily alongside Clare's
4th It is just you everything's not shit - a little guest post for Steve with a bit of swearing
