FIND ME SOME FUNNY

Sometimes when my to-do list becomes overwhelming, I spend a few hours minutes refreshing my emails and hopping around the blogosphere.  In doing so, I realize two things:

1. Most people are better at blog design, button-making and all the html stuff than I am.

2. I wish I were good at the funny.

There are some amazing blogs out there full of sly snarkitude or savvy silliness (okay I AM good at consonance) that make me absolutely LAUGH OUT LOUD.  They tend to be my go-to blogs on mornings that are, well, not-so-awesome.  You'll find some in my blogroll.

I WISH I could provide a steady dose of the funny to my fantastic followers and random hoppers-by.  Instead you have to settle for the occasional giggle bookended by posts of the overly earnest variety (I tend to be a bit hyper-focused).  If I ever find the funny, though, you'll be the first to know.  (See, there's an internal rhyme in that sentence, so you're not hopping away entirely empty-handed.)

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE LOL BLOG????

Oh, I'm feeling so overwhelmed--please leave a comment and connect me to some funny!

I did make the button above using Cool Text. Perhaps it's a wee bit pathetic but at least it's a jolly color.

I'm guest posting at "Dear Teen Me"

Jokes aside, Dear Teen Me is an amazing website full of heart-rendingly honest letters from YA authors to their teen selves. There's some great advice for readers of any age!

Bookanistas Give Back: You could win a private screening of the new TWILIGHT MOVIE

Charitable donations are a very personal thing. There are so many ways our hard earned money can help others, and lately our world seems to be breaking into pieces around us. Needs are many and great. So, the Bookanistas have decided to try to give a bit back. I wanted to tell you about our first effort.
This month, we are teaming up to help Twilight movie actor Charlie Bewley (Dmitri) with a very important cause: raising funds for a cancer hospital. His project is called RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!

DONATE & YOU'LL BE ENTERED TO WIN A PRIVATE SCREENING OF THE NEW TWILIGHT MOVIE--FOR YOU & 20 FRIENDS--THE DAY BEFORE ITS RELEASE, as well as other prizes, including stuff from the Bookanistas--signed books and advance copies of novels, critiques of your own writing, and so much more. To learn more about Charlie's cause or to enter this amazing contest, hop on over to Hourglass author Myra McEntire's blog...

I'll also be donating a signed arc of Audition to the cause, so there's a double-chance to win an arc this month.
