Tooting My Horn on (Election) Tuesday

by

Taking a quick break from the election to celebrate a little winning of my own!

I just love when I win something out of the blue! And I love to win books, too! So, imagine how thrilled I was to win signed copies of Writer Mama and Get Known Before the Book Deal! It was part of the September Writer Mama Back to School Giveaway. Christina Katz, our favorite Writer Mama, decided to choose three participants in the Giveaway who inspired her with their posts. And guess who one of those inspiring posters was? Or um, is?

You betcha it was me. Anyway, apparently I had consistently valuable information while sharing my insights. What a nice thing to say. And a great surprise for me. Wheeee!

(P.S. Check out her blog for more inspiring and valuable information!)
(P.P.S. And as soon as I read those books, I’ll fill you in on more inspiring and valuable bits of Writer Mama info!)
(P.P.S.S. Now, couldn’t you just kick yourself for skipping the Giveaway this year? Maybe you’ll win something next year…that reminds me, I’ve got to see who’s winning now!)

Sneaking Around with the T-word

by

So, I ordered my little book and kept it hidden away till now. Just a few minutes ago, I picked out my favorite t-word and ran upstairs and slapped one on my body. And I think it looks swell, in a book-lusty sort of way. But why, you may ask, all the sneaking around?

I had to wait for the beneficent Mr. Hall to get out of the house. Because when it comes to the t-word, even a t-word that’s temporary, Mr. Hall is not very beneficent. I wouldn’t want to say what Mr. Hall is when it comes to the t-word.

Let’s just say I’d be that word that proper Southern women never, ever use. And yes, I am, too, a proper Southern woman.
