Amateur Gardening Magazine


I had a nice surprise when I opened the post a couple of days ago to find a National Garden Gift Voucher from Amateur Gardening magazine. I've had a letter printed in there this week - I responded a couple of months ago to their article on garden bloggers by enthusing about my experiences of the blogosphere. Unfortunately they've not heeded my suggestion for a regular column featuring the gardening internet, but hopefully the promised revamping of their own website highlighted after my letter may feature something of the kind.

  1. Congratulations on having your letter published and enjoy the garden gift voucher. I have bought the magazine this week for the free cherry tomato seeds but have not read it yet. Will look out for your contribution.

  3. Congratulations on the prize, a great feat to get a letter published in a popular magazine. Do you know Michelle, I have thought the very same. Us so called amateurs in blogland, could show these professional webpage designers a thing or two. I wonder if we could get a job? x

  4. Hi Anna - thanks for the congrats!

    Katie - you're so right!

    Louise - I did suggest a regular column on t'internet in my letter, which they edited out at the publishing stage. My subtext to the suggestion, was how about getting some of us Bloggers to write it for them!

Hi, let's start a conversation - right here, right now! If you have a question, I'll also endeavour to get back to you over at your place.

If anyone is having problems leaving comments, do contact me on vegplotting at gmail dot com or @malvernmeet if a quick tweet is more convenient for you.

Thanks xxx

My general policy re comments

I value genuine commenters for the conversation they bring. Those aiming to link back and give credence to commercial websites (thankfully rare) will be removed.

Blog posts are kept open for your Comments for as long as possible - for at least 3 months. I've reluctantly taken the decision if a post comes in for a sp@m attack after that time, I'll remove its Comments facility. I've found genuine comments are rarely left after 3 months, but dozens of sp@m comments are :( Removing these takes away the joy that a genuine comment might be left one day.
