Busy, busy here at the blog.
So, here's the news-by-number
1 I'm taking part in Parajunkee's View's Follow Friday. The question, courtesy of Dreaming About Other Worlds, is If you are a fan of Science Fiction what is your favorite book? If you haven't read SciFi before...any inkling to?
While I love contemporary, fantasy and dystopian YA, I'm not a huge sci-fi reader BUT Orson Scott Card's ENDER'S GAME rocks and Louis McMaster Bujold's world-building is a lesson to writers of any genre.
2 SOME UN-FRENCH TOAST: A photo journey through some of the bread products I've forgotten in the toaster after being seized by writerly inspiration...
CONTEST RULES...
3 At the end of this month, all Frankly Friday commenters will be entered in a drawing to win the LITERARY DOMESTICITY SUPRISE PRIZE (part awesome arc, part just funny)! US and Canada mailing addresses only, please. If you follow/friend me on Twitter/FB and/or Tweet/FB about Frankly Friday's February Prize, let me know in your comment and you'll be entered twice (honor system). Randomly drawn prize-winner will be announced on Monday, February 28th. Best links and comments will be featured here at the blog in March.
COME BACK MONDAY FOR BIG NEWS
(Hint: It's about a shiny piece of paper that goes over a book.)
Have a book-tastic weekend!

Yeah, there are SO MANY of us. It's awesome. Nice to meet you. Swinging over to your blog, now!
Yep, it's important to grab those thoughts when you can, even if it's costs you some bread. :)
Love FF too. Tons of wonderful blogs and learning so much. :)

My tendency definitely leans toward putting water on to boil for tea or pasta, only to return to the kitchen and find most of it boiled away.
Looking forward to Monday!

Burnt a few things recently-- tea most recently. :)
Dropped by from Rachael's crusade list to say hello! Looks to be a lot of fun already! Cheers!
Hi Nikki & Danette! Thanks for stopping by along your crusader route! Danette--how exactly do you burn tea?
I hear you on the ruined food thing. I forget about soups while I'm writing. The kids are so gracious. Or maybe don't know better. =)
Also, I'm stopping by as a fellow crusader and new follower. On to the first challenge!
Stasia, Hello from a fellow crusader. We're in the same small group AND! I met you at last fall's SCBWI-WW Retreat. It's great to make contact with you again! I'm very excited about your book.
fellow crusader stopping by to say HELLO!
Hi Raquel, Catherine & Margo! My kids are gracious, too, Raquel. In fact, they know I keep a photo log of burnt stuff and they've starting taking pix for me (hmm...maybe that's not so gracious!). Thanks, all, for stopping by and happy crusading.
