When authors blog

I recently spent an afternoon teaching 15 authors how to blog.

I started with my SEO story.

"My name is Lee Henshaw and I have a problem," I told them. "I share my name with Britain's most prolific porn star."

This is true. His name is Lee Henshaw, obviously, and if you look at his profile on IMDB you'll see that he's made 25 wonderfully titled porn movies, including Cocks and Throbbers, For Your Thighs Only, and the one the authors liked the most, Catch Her in The Eye.

Sharing a name with someone as popular on the web as Lee, I told the authors, makes it harder for me to get my websites ranking highest on Google.

By the end of the session, all the authors had blogged, most of them for the first time, and linked to each other's blogs.

I interviewed four of the authors - Richard T Kelly, Keith Mansfield, Dave Simpson and Daniel Davies - about the experience.

I am trying to locate Daniel Davies who wrote an article on Scotch Whiskey Futures. Can you help?
