New Year’s Writing Winning!

December 31, 2012 by Cathy C. Hall

Sure, I could be dancing and singing and tooting my horn on this New Year’s Eve. But I couldn’t let the old year totter out without celebrating all the picture books I wrote!

I’m not saying they’re super fantastic picture books. I’m not even saying they’re semi-decent. All I’m saying is that I wrote 12 (possibly lousy) picture books in 2012. But it’s words on the page, people. And that’s 12 drafts of something I can work on in 2013.

You know, maybe I will dance and sing and toot my horn on this New Year’s Eve after all.

(And I hope you’re celebrating tons of writing achievements tonight as well. Thanks so much for joining me here in 2012–and see all y’all next year!)

Fun Friday Find: Christmas Kitchen Towel Greetings!

December 21, 2012 by Cathy C. Hall

First, I found A Southern Christmas kitchen towel and it was perfect!

And then I had to get Southern Christmas towels for all my relatives and found another kitchen towel and it was also perfect! But I couldn’t afford to buy a gazillion Booklover’s Christmas kitchen towels for all of you. So consider this Fun Friday your Merry Christmas greeting, from my blog to yours! (I’ll be thinking of you when I dry the dishes. Well, technically, I make the Junior Halls wash and dry the dishes for our feast, but while I’m enjoying a bit of grog and watching the Junior Halls clean up, I’ll raise a glass and say, in a snobby, literary, not to mention British accent, “God bless us, everyone!” and then, I’ll be thinking of you.)
