Just wanted to stop by and say hello. If you get a free moment, stop by my page here at Book Place, or at WRDF.

I keep hot, buttery-sweet cinnamon rolls on the cyber-table at all times—go ahead, grab two.

Have a great day and a successful year,
Lynda

My I Don't Know Where Else to Put it Box

A skewed sense of humor has kept me sane through 10+ years of teaching and almost as many writing. I invite you to come in and look around. Leave a comment if you like. My goal is to leave you with a smile on your face and a few new thoughts to mull over.

If you like this page, please tell your friends. If not, tell your enemies.

Character Assassination

Dumbledore is gay and I'm annoyed as hell.

I have to admit I haven't read one page of one Harry Potter book. I've bought 'em all and my kids love them. I've seen some of the movies and even bought the damn DVDs. One year we went to a Harry Potter party with my kids dressed as Hermoine and Harry--complete with capes wand and a pair of busted glasses. Even Mama went in costume though I'd be hard pressed to tell you exactly what I was.


I tell you this so you know I don't mind Pottermania,

The Me Nobody Knows

Since I never seem to get tagged for those Tell eight things about yourself you'd kill if somebody else told on you things that float around the blogosphere, I thought I'd tell on myself. Here are eight things I really hate about the way some folks use the English (and sometimes other) language.

1. Less is qualitative; more is quantitative. You cannot have less calories, but you have fewer. Fewer do you hear me. Every time I hear someone say less when they should say fewer it causes me… Continue

To All the Books I've Loved Before

Over at Murderati a few days ago, Robert Gregory Brown posted about comparing the experience of reading a book with being with a lover. Now you know the romance writer in me was ready to get on board with that analogy. Most of any good romance is foreplay--will they or won't they and if they will how will they?

Brown compares the first act of the book with seduction, the second act with foreplay and the la… Continue

Maybe it's just me, but. . .

Okay, it's been a little while since I had to do an agent search and even longer than that since I was a new author with no clue just a SASE to include with my manuscript, but . . . it never occurred to me that writer's getting a rejection would receive a letter back without their name on it. Huh? you say. I know, I don't think that made sense exactly, so I'll be specific.

The other day, an aspiring writer friend of mine got back her first two rejections from agents--one was via e-mail… Continue

MORGAN'S OWN BLOGSPOT

Who's Doing Cyber Monday?

I'm very carefully going to check out the Cyber Monday deals. I have a few items in mind that I plan to buy, but it would be very nice if they'd go on sale and save me some money. I won't be spending much. Can't afford to do so this year.

What about you?

Did You Shop on Black Friday?

There's still time to take the poll to the left about what you ate at Thanksgiving.
About Black Friday -
The DH despises mob scenes, but my brother and I do love the adventure of shopping on Black Friday. We weren't courageous enough to get up at the crack of dawn, though, so we did miss out on a few goodies, like the snuglee blankets and pots and pans sets at Menards, and some other items. I did manage to get some work gloves at almost 50 cents each pair, and a boot/shoe dryer which sounded interesting and was less than $9.00. The biggest extravagance there was this turntable with MP3 encoding/AM FM radio combination thing, but that was only $49.00, which isn't too bad. I didn't go for any of the high ticket items.

I didn't do too bad, but do have some Staples rebates to send in. They're pretty easy to do online, so I don't mind doing them. I bought some USB flash drives, batteries, and CD rewrites there.

I also bought a reversible light grey, almost white bubble coat and some grey boots at Walmart, both items $7.00 each, which I plan to use walking Rascal.

What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of deals did you get?

So, this year I was pretty practical, but it was still fun and I did get a few things I hadn't expected to find.

What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of finds did you get?

Did you eat any of these foods at Thanksgiving dinner?

Since it's a busy time and an eating time, here's an easy poll to take in the left column. It's okay to pick multiple answers as long as they don't conflict. You can also leave a comment about a particularly favorite dish, if you wish.

Still Time Plus Giving Thanks

Still time to let us know  below when you read.
Today, at http://acmeauthorslink.blogspot.com/ I'm giving thanks for the gift of writing. What about you?

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.

When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
