Anastasia: Never thought I’d get this far.
Arthur: Blogs are a thing of the past, wouldn’t you say? Most die about Year 2.
Anastasia: Mine almost did. Published a book, attached a blog as a supplement for exploring new material. It was on the verge of petering out, near death.
Arthur: You’ve been at it for fifteen years. How did you retrieve it?
Anastasia: Routine. Decided on six posts every month.
Arthur: Without fail?

| Immagina mille conversazioni |
Arthur: Why do you write?
Anastasia: Mainly for me to practise dialogue writing. Imagined conversations, usually between two people.
Arthur: How do you express different voices?
Anastasia: I choose a name for each character. Visualize an Arthur talking quietly. Conjure up an Anastasia talking like a diva.

Voice-over
Authorial intrusion: I focus on everyday events and issues. Attempt to clarify my woolly thinking through edited writing. Try to capture the voice of the characters. It’s a journal, I don’t really care if it’s read or not. It’s for me to use later. Perhaps. I suppose I should attend more to marketing, metrics, presentation and engagement through comments but for me the content is the important thing.
