Shaggy Blog Stories
Troubled Diva has come up with a storming idea for a way in which bloggers can help to raise money for Red Nose Day. The idea is that UK bloggers send one funny blog post to him and he will “assemble and publish – in the space of just seven days – a paperback anthology of blog writing, that can be sold to raise funds for the charity”. You can read full details of his plan, the way it will work and the guidelines by going to Troubled Diva’s ‘Shaggy Blog Stories’ post.
He wants other bloggers to publicise the idea (so this is that part) and contribute an amusing post. Once the book is complete, next Friday, we all buy it and help the charity. Simple.
Now if I can find one story that I have written that is funny, or even vaguely amusing, I will send it off for consideration.

Well, I am just publicising an excellent idea by Troubled Diva. But, yes, it will only be a success if lots of people provide posts and then lots of people buy the book.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I’ve submitted a post, and will keep an eye out for the book, which is an excellent (if rather mad!) idea.
