Weekend wrap: Helping your friends, experts and the lovely @southrngurl6489

Whooooooosh! That week went fast. One of the great things (for me anyway) about these weekend wraps is they show me how fast time is going. Why is that a good thing? Because it forces me to stay on my toes and keeping moving forward. ;)

And what a week it’s been! On Monday, Give A Brick friend (I still remember the support he showed us when I pulled that stupid April Fool’s Day stunt) Matthew Needham, released (or pre-released? I think so :) ) his new workbook ‘How to achieve your dreams The Big Red Tomato way‘ (I think that’s the title ;) ) I’d love to tell you to go and grab a copy but the doors are shut now until August. I’m gutted actually but don’t worry, as soon as it becomes available again, I’ll let you know :)

Wednesday saw us start the search for our experts. You can read more about the whole thing here but what I have to say right now is how excited I’ve been by the response. I’ve lost count but I think at least eight people have already committed to being involved. How cool is that?! What I’m still looking for is a couple of doctor type experts. Our lovely Dr Egg has agreed to help and I’ll be chatting with him over the weekend to see if he has any friends offline who might like to play. But if you know anyone, send them our way. Thanks :)

And finally, better late than never, late yesterday afternoon, I introduced another Friday Friend, Jennifer Jinright. You can follow her on Twitter (although she’s asleep as I type this so say hello very quietly!) and watch her video interview here. It was a lot of fun. :)

And that’s your lot. Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for being here :)

P.S. I’ve had an amazing week personally too. I found my thing and if you’d like to know more, I’ll tell you all about it over at my other haunt, Writing Smiles.

    I am glad you had a great week! I am also checking out your other blog now. I remember you saying something about it a while back but I think I was briefly on the computer and never got the link for it but now that I do I am going to definitely put it into my reader :)

    Hi El,

    I know how you mean about the time just whizzing by. The weeks and months are going by so fast now – must be because I have so much to occupy my time! :-)

    You’ve done some amazing things here lately, and I’m glad that you are getting the help you need.

    Thanks for the pointer to your new site, I’m off to go check out our latest.
