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.

Hey Deirdre, way cool! Great article and lovely promo of you. The new site is very swish as well.

Do you think that now your letters may start getting through more because as people read about the experiment, they will want to be 'involved' by posting stranded letters that they find?

I've been wondering about that - it might become something like bookcrossing, with people getting all excited to have found a Postwodehouse letter! The experiment would lose its validity, of course, but it would be a lot of fun.
