Did You Know

 Did you know, that if you publish a book in Norway in the Norwegian language and it meets quality control,  the government will buy a thousand copies and distribute it to their libraries? Let's move to Norway:)

Happy Birthday Jacob.

Good idea. But I don't want to move to Norway, it's too cold! Happy birthday Jacob. Hugs, Valerie

I am SO sorry I've missed so much since I've been offline. Not by choice, of course. I think this is a wonderful way to support writers.

Happy birthday to Jacob, too.

Great musicians there, so I'm all for a move!

What a great initiative from Norway! Maybe I should write a book in Cornish and try to convince my local authority to support it... Um, Cornish is hard - I know one word, and that's my town's name - Essa.
