I accidentally started a book club.
I called it ‘Blook Club’.
Bloggers plus books.
The first meet was in Edinburgh back in 2011.
It was weird, but fun weird so we did more.
There’s now a Blook Club Edinburgh and
a Blook Club South East London.
To join, either follow @blookclub on Twitter
and email us on blookclubuk@gmail.com
Blook Club Edinburgh is now run by the ace Kirsty @asafemooring
and Blook Club SE London by Amy @daisyfay_ and me @Convo_Pieces.
We’re nice. Come chat, eat cake and talk books.
*****
Only rule: To join Blook Club, you should be a blogger
or a blog reader/commenter with a twitter account.
(That way, we know you’re ‘real’!)
