So i bought this little chap via Music Magpie or whatever by #tompetty - what are your favourite lesser-known tracks? Where does it fit in your Top Ten of Tom?

Tom is hugely proud of this song. In Conversations with Tom Petty, he tells author Paul Zollo, “Dreamville” is one of the best songs I ever wrote. That was about innocence.”

Had a listen to the first two episodes earlier. Thought it was really good, very funny! Lovely writing, great comic timing and just....a lot of fun.

Back in 2008, I learnt some HTML to create a website - initially to publicise our writing group, aspiring #novelists in #brighton. I decided a changing home page was crucial. 365 stories x almost 17 years have been published. Grateful if you can RT>>
