Fingers crossed, my latest book will drop in May. (I think that’s young people speak for ‘Will be published’.) #dance #music #dancing

I appear to be unable to use social media to best advantage. I assume I’m not alone in this, but sometimes I feel that I probably am. Am I?

Hello to all my new followers. I’m starting to feel at home here, but it’s taking time. Prepare for Carry On, Jane Austen and music chat. And shameless plugs for my forthcoming book on dance and dance music - Dancehalls, Glitterballs and DJs. (Jane Austen’s in it).

So. I just joined Substack (as Bruce Lindsay should anyone wish to know). I haven’t written anything yet, still trying to figure it out. Any hints or tips? I’ll blather on about arts and culture, mostly music, no politics.
