Typecast

I am trialing a new way to deliver updates to you from the Typecast  blog. The imminent loss of Google Reader has made me a little bit jittery with regards to Feedburner (also owned and powered by Google ) so I am going to use Mail Chimp for daily updates with effect from today. Please sign up for Typecast updates using this link   or the 'Subscribe' form in the sidebar on the main blog.  You will not be spammed and you will only receive one email when I update the blog.    I'd also love to hear your feedback and your recommendations for subscriber lists.   If you follow my geek blog, Geekalicious , you can get regular email updates using this link .

Ye olde blog was dusted off and I started writing.  The first piece was the story of how I became a Nana at the sprightly age of 36 which is as a good as it gets for some time... I inwardly cringe at some of the posts I wrote last year.  Some 250 posts later, here we are, a year down the line.  I've had some work published, I have a merry band of readers and followers, I have infi...
