After months of waiting in anticipation, I’m elated to say that the Greta Garbo Blogathon has now arrived. At last the beautiful, enigmatic actress with the luminous screen presence who carried with her an air of mystery will finally be given the credit that she deserves.
From now until Thursday an array of prolific bloggers will be putting the legendary Greta Garbo back in the spotlight with my blogathon. A big thank you to all participants. I look forward to reading your entries.
