Pssst. My New Voices entry has been sent....

....and gulp, I decided to send it under "Caroline Storer", I had planned on chickening out and sending it under another name - but considering how blunt (but I hope fair) I've been to other authors, I thought it only fair to allow them to get their own back!! So be kind people, and go and have a look. I've got broad shoulders, so don't hang back. I would welcome any feedback - after all that's the only way we will "grow" as authors.

So...It's called "The Roman's Revenge" in the Historical category.

I wanted to post one of those link thingies where it takes you direct to a site - but even after a year of blogging I *still* don't know how to do it! So if any of you fellow blogger's have a few minutes to spare to tell me how to do it I will be eternally grateful - be warned tho' -I'm rubbish at anything IT!

  1. Ooooh Good luck with it. I'm not sure in what programme you posted but usually you can highlight the word you want people to click on and there should be an option to create a hyperlink.

  4. It's easy to do a link in Blogger.

    First, go to the site you want to link to (which would be your submission, of course) and copy the address from your address bar.

    Then go to blogger and open your post editor. Make sure you're using the rich text editor by clicking on "compose" at the top of the box.

    After that, it's just like Lily said above - you can highlight the word and click the "link" button, paste the website into the box, and click OK. Voila. There's your link!

    Best of luck in the New Voices contest!

  6. Congrats Caroline!!! I'm heading over now! If you want to add a link to one of our badges all you have to do is add a picture gadget like you did for Copper Mountain and the third box from the top where you upload your picitures says Link http:// and that's where you want to paste a link to your story :)

  7. Caroline, read your NV entry and posted a comment but wanted to let your know how much I enjoyed it. I think you've done a great job and I could think of lots of words to describe it - gripping, easy to read, well-written, well researched but never 'boring'! Honestly!! *assumes lotus position* Each to their own, I suppose ;)

  9. Thanks Jackie - much appreciated. It has to be the most nerve wracking thing in the world subbing. I'm still in awe at those that posted their entry on the 1st day! Do you suppose M&B are trying to "toughen up" us newbies? LOL Caroline x
