And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years. Abraham Lincoln
When I first began the blog, I committed to daily postings, but worried about running out of material. How wrong I was! The more blogs I write and the more auxiliary material I find and post, the more the ideas flow.
In the last year, the BryonySeries blog has covered:
• the author’s various writing projects
• the editing experience
• the marketing behind the novel
• updates on the auxiliary projects, such as the book trailer, music video, cookbook, and fundraisers for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will and Grundy Counties
• interviews and glimpses into other members of the Bryony team
• blog postings composed by one of Bryony’s characters, Ed Calkins, the Steward of Tara
• the author’s fictional, Irish genealogy
• informational postings, interviews, and/or video clips on topics related to Bryony: Arabian horses, bats, bryony (the weed), croquet, dandyism and foppery, dreams, fishing, food (Victorian and ‘70’s-style), all things Irish, the language of fans, leeches, leprechauns, limericks, memories, piano music, roses and the meaning of their colors, rowboats, vampires, and Victorian clothing.
We’ve also had a fair amount of guest posters (message us at bryonyseries@gmail.com if you’d like to guest post) and a contest to name the Bryony cookbook.
If you’re new to the BryonySeries blog, check out the tags for topics on past posts or simply select a month and start reading. For additional fun, “like” the Bryony Facebook page (www.facebook.com/BryonySeries). Each day, that page offers additional fun posts, up-to-date information, book quotes and book-related quotes, photos and more.
For those that have followed us the entire year (We’ve passed 11,000 page views), thank you! To the new fans: the fun is just beginning. Stay posted!
