Julia on form

[Old Man Steptoe]

I’m sure J.K.Rowling is keeping her eye on the competition

Selling clothes on Ebay and winning the lottery can't be compared with the slog it takes to write a novel and get it published. Even if her talent is meager and her books trashy, it still takes brain power.

I haven't written a book but I have written several published articles and short stories for magazines. It took the same amount of brain power as it does to run small internet businesses. I find neither activity a slog tbh. Haven't won the lottery yet but two of Mr CC's family have!! There's hope.

I hope you win it one day, and win it Big!! I don't play, but every time I hear about a winner, I think I should try. Beginner's luck, maybe.

I don't think that Candy really thinks that. I read using humour to demostrate a point.

I understand the humour: who cares what qvc presenters do in their off time, just as nobody cares what I do in mine. I don't read Julia's blogs, but I know she is an author, and she gets free promotion for her novels by announcing their publication on qvc. It's never a good sign when someone boasts about their accomplishments.

It does amuse me the way she strains to pull her stomach in when the camera pans in close.......just saying........

???? I'm confused. You seemed to be defending Julia before?
Ground level is as comfortable as the fence & can be somewhat refreshing.

Genre: Chick Lit. Millions of women like this type of novel. Not readable, imo. Mostly, they are written according to a formula. Good luck to her, from me. She may encourage her qvc fans to read more, and then discover better literature.

Good point. Anything that encourages people to read more is a good thing.

Oh no, Sister, I didn't want to come off as defending Julia. Well done to anyone who gets published. I know that for most writers it's hard work and takes dedication. 10 percent inspiration and 90 percent perspiration. For the most part, I find Julia a good presenter, but a bragger.

It does amuse me the way she strains to pull her stomach in when the camera pans in close.......just saying........

I find myself doing that when I look at myself in the mirror sideways. I'm kidding myself that my belly looks flatter.

So does she, obviously....................

Oh how lucky we are to have authors plying their trade on a shopping channel,if they were successful then they would not be here presenting tat!
Always think 2sizes2small is always on the verge of a garment failure

To be fair, Julia does look like she has lost quite a lot of weight.
