Dating Fish Diary Cartoon Blog To Be Tweeted

Have decided to create a cartoon blog out of the watercolour visuals that I am currently working on to accompany the dating diary. The cartoon blog visuals will be twittered in installments on a timed schedule one by one. Still waiting for the diary to be processed - am keeping busy - 19 sept. My dating diary progress blog is at http://datingdiarydiary.blogspot.com/
11 Oct A new version of 'The Seaside' will be published in the anthology 'Foward Press Regionals 2010 - The Midlands and The East of England'.
3 Nov Have prepared some basic interview notes, some background notes and some detailed notes on the dating diary. Technical issues are causing the delay - who knows how many variations of a rich text file document there are ! Am number one for 'Dating Diary' in google web search.
4th Nov while my actual dating diary manuscript dates and ages due to technical issues etc, I am busy with all of my plots and plans. My character goes on abit of a journey within the cartoon blog. I am having so much fun with it I might as well forget about the dating diary and just do the cartoon blog !!!

Anticipating...

12 July. Waiting for the diary to be processed. It might need a second revision. Only 3 people have read the diary.
27 July. There has been a slight delay with the publishing of the diary. Should be out in about two weeks. I won't be posting anymore eflyers until the book is in my hands. Have done 3 interviews so far. Writing interview notes is not my favourite form of writing but I shall learn to love it. Am also working on some watercolour visuals to accompany the diary - the visuals worry me more than the text.
6 August. Still waiting for the covers to be processed.
10 August. Covers are now finalized. Had to come up with some chapter titles overnight to create abit of spacing inside the diary. I need to bring the diary up to 48 pages to keep the cost of production down. It was a choice between providing some black and white images or creating chapter titles. I quite like the chapter titles that I have chosen.
