Did I mention my book?

Whilst the whole point of Anya's blog has been transparent for quite a few readers, she herself gave a clue right back in the very first days. An entry for February 9th mentions; "..the unfinished novel I have in a box in the boot... So of course I had dreamt in the past of getting a book published" Hmmm.. could this be the reason d'etre for the whole blog? Well, posting on a writers site to advertise her own blog would seem to back it up. And readers wouldn't just happen upon her blog by typing random names into their address bar. Perhaps a little self promotion was called for, despite her blog supposedly being "a very personal affair". Luckily fate smiles on our wannabe authoress and she finds someone else living in woods who also keeps a blog. SACRE BLEU !! What are the chances ??? Now don't forget, her blog entries are full of how she shies away from people and yet, before she has honed this feature into her blog writing to emphasise the loneliness she feels, here she is emailing complete strangers who live rough and even meeting them. "A guy called Hugh also has a blog.... I emailed him. We met and kept in contact by email and although he is not supporting homelessness issues as such, this week he allowed me to post in his blog." I've always suspected that homeless people all over the country were emailing each other all the time and now I find it's true! (21st Century Tramps, eh! Cuh !!) No mention of why she had to post on Hugh's blog when she already has one of her own though, but hey, there's no such thing as bad publicity, right? I'm sure the post on Hughs' site did Anya’s own blog no harm in the publicity stakes either. But that probably wasn't the reason for getting in touch. Oh no. Probably just wanted to swap Nettle Stinger Soup recipes or suchlike. Like homeless people do.
