What’s Over YOUR Writing Spot? Part Deux

by

First of the month has me scrambling to get my goals in order, and I’ve already told you about the spiffy calendar I keep over my writing spot. But I kinda left you hanging about a few of the other writing snips and tips I keep over the old desk.

So here’s one of the comic strips staring me in the face (if I raise my eyes a few inches and squint):
Hahahahaha! Stephan Pastis is genius, isn’t he? Such insight! So pithy! And really, when it comes to writing humor, you can’t go wrong with a pig. (I think I’ll coin that phrase and add it on an index card over my desk.)

Accidental Cowgirl Goes to…

Howdy, pard’ners! It’s been so dad-burned hot around here, I can’t hardly think straight.

That’s cowgirl talk for “I completely forgot to draw a winner for Mary Lynn Archibald’s wonderful memoir yesterday!” But now I have my wits about me, so Accidental Cowgirl goes to…

Jenny! So, Jenny (who dropped in to celebrate my BON award!), I hope you’ll drop in again with your email so I can get your address and send the book.

Now, I don’t want the rest of y’all to feel too down-in-the-dumps. I have another splendiferous book (Okay, I can’t stand it-it’s a cozy little needle-and-thread mystery) coming up on a blog tour in August. I know you’ll love it, so I hope you’ll drop in again and try to win.

Meanwhile, HEY! Isn’t it August already? Time flies when you’re having fun. Or your brain cells are getting cooked. Either way, we’re giving away a book in ten days or so. Now git along little doggies. (That’s cowgirl talk for “I’ve got a looong, cool drink with my name on it-and I suggest you find one for yourself.”)
