I know a couple of people here, Eliza Graham who kindly introduced me to Will a year ago and Ann Weisberger, another MNW who lives on this side of the pond. I grew up in Uxbridge, attended school in Hillingdon, and moved to the States (Connecticut) in my early 20s, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. I still miss England, a lot, and don't get to visit nearly often enough, but I'll be over for a few weeks in June to meet Will and his crew, do the odd signing, and whatever else will help launch the book.
So, if any of you MNW veterans have any tips, hints, suggestions, etc., I'm all ears and eager to learn.

What's the blue question mark at the start of my post? Did I do something bone-headed?
Welcome to the fold, Maggie. The box with the cross in it was a macro that was meant to print your photo on every blog entry (like a blog entry marker) but it didn't work. Unfortunately it's still on there. Just delete it whenever you post a blog entry.
Congratulations on Beachcombing, by the way - I'll be immersed in all things baby in June so it's doubtful that I'll be able to escape from Sheffield, but I hope it's a big success.
Best wishes
Matt
Hi Maggie!
Hi from me too, Maggie! (or do you prefer Mags?)
Mags ... Maggie ... I answer to almost anything except my given name, Margaret! Haven't used that one in years.
And thanks for the welcome. It's good to be finally 'here' after lurking so long.
Hi Mags
Good to meet you - in a cyber kind of way and congratulations and best wishes for Beachcombing.
Welcome, Mags.
I love the way the MNW family keeps growing!
Hi Mags - welcome to the MNW crew. Hope you enjoy it as much as most of us who post here do!
Join the group, Maggie! Its wonderful how every month adds to the list. But why no one else from the Indian shore?
Tim - it keeps growing because nobody ever leaves!Perhaps we should start a Macmillan Old Writers for those of us who have, as it were, graduated? But that wouldn't be the same, somehow...
Heya, Maggie! Good to see you come out of the shadows at last.
Now that you're here, don't be shy...
Hi Maggie
[Waving]
Good to see you here.
Welcome aboard the HMS Macmillan, Maggie!

HELLO EVERYONE ... I have to shout because I'm so far away. Many thanks for the lovely warm welcome, and I promise that this was my last shy moment. My first, too. I'm not usually given to shyness.
Matt ... congrats on the baby. Your first?
Hello Maggie from your side of the pond. I'm delighted that you've joined the blog.
Enjoy dreaming about and preparing for Beachcombing's launch in June.
Welcome, Maggie. I look forward to reading the book!
