The Blog Virgin: Me & Technology
Technology and me could never be seen as friends, computers are glorified word processors, my iPod had 27 songs on it for two years and I have just figured out how to record programme on my Sky Plus box. So I am a true blogging virgin if ever there was one. Be gentle with me and read very quickly lest this be littered with mistakes.
A little about myself – My name is Janett Plummer and I am a Birmingham-based writer of poetry and short stories mainly. Not to be confused with another London poet called – yep, ya guessed it Janet Plummer with one “T” instead of my two. Loooooooooooooooong story but we have spoken. I can confirm the other is real and does indeed also write poetry and live in the Capital City. Different styles of writing separate us luckily. Check her out and decide for yourself.
Currently I am reading The Help – love it, love it, love it: good ideas, authentic voice and it evokes the mood of the times. One of those can’t put that book down until you finish it. I’m also loving a gospel artist Onitsha recording with Living waters studios, funky, contemporary and yet packing a good punch. Non believers will love it in a “Take my Shackles off my feet so I can dance” kinda way that got you into Mary Mary back in the day. And, I am loving Luther the BBC drama; only just caught up with it, although the 100% success rate at catching criminals surely puts him at the top of the top techs league. Yes I know it was on ages ago but I had to go all the way to Holland to catch up on it, spending a precious day out of my holiday on catching up on this brilliant series (albeit four months later than everyone else!)

P.S I think I started this blog thinking that I was going to come out with something deep and meaningful about technology, Macs versus PC’s for writers but I guess that’s another topic for another day.
MWAH XXX
