Day 12 on my International Blog tour takes me back to England and to the home of the lovely, multi-talented Mandy Baggot<\/a>, who among the ranks of loveahappyending.com<\/a> we lovingly refer to as Lady Baggot!<\/p>\n

In addition to being an excellent writer, self-promoter, and singer she’s an excellent hostess.\u00a0 I just hope I don’t spill anything or otherwise embarrass myself whilst being her guest.<\/p>\n

Psst… it’s a secret, don’t tell Mandy but I’m trying glean as many of her promotion ideas as I can.<\/p>\n
