Tooting My Horn Tuesday: The One with Double Entendre

by

I waited all day for something to come along to toot my horn about, but geez. Where’s Fame and Fortune when you need it?

Here’s the thing. The last time I was soaking in my Thought Intensification Tank (AKA the tub) I hit upon an idea for Tuesday blogging (see above). That was a few days ago; plenty of time for something to come along to toot, toot, toot about.

Well, a few things have come along, but I wouldn’t say they were exactly toot-worthy. That doesn’t mean that Tooting My Horn Tuesday is a bad idea. Only that it would be a better idea if there was something I could actually toot about.

So tune in next Tuesday. There’s bound to be something by then. Or toot your horn, if you’ve got a mind to. And one more thing. Maybe I should change my title for the tub, too. Or do you think TIT’s okay? 🙂

Finding Something Friday: Things I’d Never Tell

by

If I’m being perfectly honest, there’s quite a few things I’d never tell. But for the sake of Finding Something Friday I will tell you what I found.

If you zip over to Poets and Writers here you’ll find the listings for January and February. And if you look closely, you’ll find the listing for an anthology market: Things I’d Never Tell my Mother. Apparently, someone thinks people would like to read stories about things you’d never tell your mother. Humorous or heartbreaking things, or maybe some of the scary things you did. Like a midnight ride on a motorcycle that didn’t have any headlights. With a guy you just met. Out in the middle of nowhere. Heading to Lord-only-knows-where. Not that I would ever in a million years do something like that. Not for all the Fame or Fortune in the world.

But if I did do something like that, I’d never tell. Even if I could use a psuedonym. (Which you can if you send your story in to Things I’d Never Tell my Mother.)
