I've had a long think about things and I think it's time this blog came to an end.
It's not exactly unexpected. I mean it's been slowly dying for the past year and more. I've not been posting stuff to it and I've hit too many consecutive posts saying that I will update, just as soon as I've got time. No reviews are getting done, no short stories are getting written and I'm not writing about my journey to become a published author. Even when I got invited to the Kelpies Prize award ceremony as one of the nominees I didn't post anything.
Well the journey is at an end. Attack of the Giant Robot Chickens is set to be published by Floris Books in the early Spring of next year. I've made it. Which is a good time to draw this blog to a close.
And start up another one.
All in all it would probably suit my style better if I moved over to Tumblr. I've loved doing this blog but one thing that has really bugged me is the lack of feedback it allows. I mean I can see the x amount of people has seen it and where they came from but that's about it. I think with Tumblr I'd be able to promote myself better and get more feedback about what people think. So please, come check me out. The link is here. I'll look forward to seeing you.
Though I did try this before so chances are I'll be back in a few months.
My name is Alex McCall and I am the youngest award winning author in Scotland! My book, attack of the Giant Robot Chickens, is available on Amazon and in various bookshops. This is my blog where I post reviews and share what's happening with me. I'm just really bad at keeping it up to date.

Attack of the Giant Robot Chickens
Two week last Thursday, on the 22nd of August, one of my dreams came true. I won the Kelpies Prize and that means that I'm going to become a published author.
Since then news of this has spread. I've so far appeared in at least two newspapers and on a number of blog and press released. And this would be great and amazing apart from one thing. A large number of them mention this blog. This blog that I haven't really done anything with for ages.
Ho hum.
I want to start putting stuff back up on here. I really do. I just can't right now. I've just moved back to university and do't currently have much internet. What I do is being carefully rationed.
But I get hooked up to the internet permanently on Tuesday. So if you're visiting please wait patiently and come back then. Thanks.
