My Squidoo lens Bullying at Primary School has been my top performing lens almost since it was first published. And this week I was thrilled to receive an email from a Student asking permission to use Sparky’s Poem in an AntiBullying Document she is producing for Teachers to use. Although it is great to see how popular the lens is, I always feel so sad when I think about what our daughter went through for such a long time. Writing the lens was therapy and it helps us to know that our ex... Read Full Story

Last year I wrote my Remembrance Day lens just three days before the event. It was 4 am and I could not sleep and I put it together in a couple of hours. Squidoo traffic and some Squidoo Angel Blessings got it ranking fairly high but it was too late for Google traffic. But this year, oh boy! Yesterday the lens broke all my Squidoo records – apart from highest ranking, which as I write remains at #13. I broke the 1000 visits on one lens in a week barrier = 1155, which I have never done b... Read Full Story

Have finally got into a schedule with my writing on SquidLog and thanks to a suggestion from my lovely SquidPal Chef Keem I am finding a seemingly inexhaustible range of topics that expand on my area of particular interest: Squidoo Etiquette. So far I have covered the Squidoo Angels, Twitter, the SquidU Forum and Multiple Accounts on Squidoo. Next week sees the turn of Guestbook Etiquette. Recently I have also started up a new blog on Crabby’s Beach, where I am musing on Green and Envir... Read Full Story

A link on the plexo for my wheat free dieting lens that directed me to a UK company called Creative Inventions.According to their portfolio:I... Read Full Story

Yesterday saw the announcement of a new group of Angels on Squidoo. As far as I can see, only nine Angels remain from the cohort appointed in April and I am really proud to be one of them. This leaves 23 new haloes being polished up (or being retrieved from storage) ready to take to the Squidoo sky. Following feedback received from the last group of Angels, each Angel will only have three categories to watch over this time around instead of five, which should make the task of helping the R...
