It may sound grandiose, but blogging is an important democratising force, giving a real voice to those who might otherwise not have one. It’s a great social leveler too - anyone can do it, no qualification required. There’s no editor to correct your flabby grammar and no one to censure your words (unless, of course, you live somewhere with lively Internet police). More... If you happen to be in the fair city of Norwich on the 26th of July with a little time to spare, join me for a chat about the art of blogging at the St Margaret's Church of Art. The best thing is that it's free.
