It's me! In the newspapers!

There's an article about my letter experiment in The Independent today. Oh my. I am apparently "writer Deirdre Ruane", or just "Ruane", which is very weird.

Go read it, and then go to postwodehouse.com, which is the website I've been asking for help with this week. And for pity's sake, if you participated (or even if you didn't) and you can think of something to say, post something on the message board! It's got tumbleweeds blowing through it.

Thank you again to everyone who joined in - I've still got letters to go out to some of you! - and everyone who helped me test the site. And to rhodri, who did a great job.

I'm in the paper. Holy cow.

I'm thinking it might be interesting to try this experiment in different cities all over the world, and see what, if any, effect that has on the success rate. Maintaining equivilance in the drop sites might be hard though.

Well, whatever about the stats being valid, I do hope lots of people will decide to send me serendipitous letters of their own from other places...
