This blog is no longer being updated

Due to the fact that since 2007 I've been asked - and answered - almost every question writers can think of, there's no longer a need to update this blog. Hello to those of you who continue to visit - I hope you find it useful. Thanks to those of you who have asked questions. Happy writing!
