May | 2011 | Cathy C. Hall Writes

First, I’d like to thank everyone who dropped by for Linda Hubalek’s blog book tour, Trail of Thread. What an intrepid group of journalers you are!

I’ve never had much success with journaling…my journals start with a bang (of super awesome events) and end with a whimper (of what we had for dinner that night). But perhaps, I shall take up pen once again. Some future Hall may be fascinated by my description of hot dogs topped with cole slaw and onions.

Oh! I forgot to name the winner of the ebook! It’s Sally Apokedak! Which seems only fitting since she’s a mad journaler herself!

(Um, I mean super awesome journaler, Sally. Not crazy as a bedbug/angsty angry journaler. You knew that, right?)

Dan Wilbur is my new best friend. He doesn’t exactly know it, but whatever. His blog, BETTER BOOK TITLES is genius. Simple concept, brilliantly funny execution.

He takes well-known books and re-titles them so that you, the over-worked reader, don’t have to actually read the whole book to get the gist of things. What a time-saver! Because I, for one, do not have time to read Jane Eyre again. But a simple glance at Dan’s better book title, and I’m good.

Basically, I’ve found a way to fit in at those get-togethers where everyone’s talking about the lastest best-seller (or classic) that I haven’t got ’round to reading yet (implying that someday, I might actually read these best-sellers/classics).

And now you can be cool and well-read, too! But I’ve got dibs on Dan Wilbur if he shows up.
