Few writers find success without the advice and support of others be they friends, family or fellow writers. Last fall I allowed my membership in RWA to expire. I knew I would miss my friends who were members of the local branch of the national organization but fortunately I've been able to keep in touch with many of them through social media.
Let me introduce one of them today. Ava Quinn's blog,
Tongue in Cheek, was one of the first blogs I followed when I gave this style of social networking a whirl. She became one of my first followers. You can't visit her blog and not laugh. You'll learn much more about her when she makes a guest appearance on my blog in April during the A to Z blog challenge as the letter 'Q' as in Queen. You don't know what the reigning Possum Queen does? You'll have to return in April and find out.
In the meantime, visit me today at
Tongue in Cheek and learn a little more about my latest release,
Beyond the Gate. I know you'll like Ava. Do you remember who your first followers were on your blog? Did anyone help you out in particular getting started? Are you involved in A to Z and did you line a 'Q' yet?

Thanks for the suggestion! You never forget your first follower. Sigh...
I was just over at Ava's site reading that interview. Ava's was one of the first blogs I followed and she was one of the first to follow mine. A very, very funny blog!
I am involved with the A to Z blog and I do have a Q line. It was X, Y and Z that gave me some trouble but I think I've gotten it worked out now...
Thanks for them kind words, Sue and M!
I'm so glad you stopped by today!
Will bop over there.
So true - first followers remain special!! :)
Q was easy for me this year because of the theme I'd selected! And I don't remember my very first follower, but I remember a couple of the first ones who really helped me. And of course the A to Z made a big difference!
I know what you mean, Alex. I remember when I had only five faithful. Can't wait for A to Z and some more growth on my blog.
Thanks for visiting me at Ava's, Helen and Jemi.
I will check out the interview. I love the cover of the book.
