By Scottish Children's Author, Nicola Morgan. Sunday, May 24, 2009. PROBABLY THE MOST BIZARRE INTERVIEW I'VE EVER DONE. Today, I had a long list of things to do. Instead of doing any of them, I had a load of fun being interviewed by "one of the most important interviewers in the world". And guess who won the contest? Sorry, I mean "interview").

Ghostly Galleon: THE END IS NIGH
http://ghostlygalleon.blogspot.com/2009/08/end-is-nigh.html
By Scottish Children's Author, Nicola Morgan. Friday, August 07, 2009. THE END IS NIGH. This is not how my desk is supposed to be. This is how my desk is supposed to be. And I hope that in a few weeks it will be. In my roundabout way, I am trying to explain (maybe even "show not tell") why this blog has become so much more occasional than it was meant to be. ( Unlike my other blog. To which I devote more time than I should.). How will they know what to do? My six events are all half prepared. But hal...

Loads of them bought books, and loads more ordered them because they hadn't expected to want to buy one so hadn't bought money. And a lot emailed me with lovely comments afterwards. Not that there was mnuch between events, but there's always time for chocolate, I think.) Thanks to Diana for her general calmness and efficiency, not just toda...

Ghostly Galleon: October 2008
http://ghostlygalleon.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
By Scottish Children's Author, Nicola Morgan. Saturday, October 25, 2008. Chance Encounter of a Pigeon Kind. Anyway, we couldn't leave the bird in my study, could we? Does this constitute an 999 emergency? What would it be under in Yellow Pages? So, we can ask. What if the bird had never flown through your window? How would it have affected what happened next in your novel? But we can never know the answer. All you can ever know is what actually does happen from that point. (Actually, in the nove...The s...

Ghostly Galleon: March 2009
http://ghostlygalleon.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
By Scottish Children's Author, Nicola Morgan. Tuesday, March 24, 2009. MY BRAIN CAUSES AIRPORT SECURITY ALERT. There are many hazards involved in doing school talks. Personally I think we should get danger money. Most of the stories in this blog have been brought about by untoward incidents while travelling to or from or delivering such events. But none has caused a major security alert at an international airport until today. Is this your bag, madam? Man: Do you have anything unusually dense in your bag?

http://dreamingnotsleeping.blogspot.com/2011/01/meet-etopia-press-author-steve-emmett.html
Meet Etopia Press Author - Steve Emmett. Today sees the release of Diavolino, written by fellow Etopia Press author - Steve Emmett. As we share a liking for the horror genre, I've invited him on to my blog to talk about the novels he enjoys reading. My earliest influences were the adventure horrors of Dennis Wheatley. The first I read was The Haunting of Toby Jugg. Is from the same pedigree. Stephen King’s The Mist. Gripped me. So did Carrie. Is a good taster. I also enjoy good humour, weird humour, and ...
