Fun Filled Friday

Image
By
Morning Folks,

For today's post I'm trying something new (just for Fridays, with the results posted on Monday--that is, if the idea takes off). If this idea takes off, I might do it every Friday.

So what's the idea? A game. I know, I know sounds like a lame attempt to get commenter, but I was thinking about this last night in bed and I remember doing this on some message boards.

Of course, I have to make it relevant to writing...it just wouldn't be right to post here otherwise. So here we go...

I'm going to put ONE line of a story. One line only. And in the comment section each commenter adds ONE line.

Either over the weekend or Monday I'll put all the lines together and post it in a post.

So here we go... (I'm calling the Story "The Moment")
Here's my 1 Sentence (Line): Janice looked out her window.

Now it's your turn...the first person to comment on this blog posts the next line, then the person after that posts the next line to the person above them and so on and so forth (so the first person to comment adds a line to my line, then the person after the first comment adds a line to that one, then the next person to the second...that's how). Only ONE sentence (line). By the way...the story does NOT necessarily have to make perfect sense or be limited to one genre. This is purely for fun!
Have A Funny Friday!

She watched as the snow flakes drifted down, settling on the frozen statues that littered the front yard.

Ok so what happens when we post at the same time? And how wierd that we both thought snow? Although...now that I read it, it doesn't sound bad in that order.

Lisaloo's will come first and yours second since they make sense. If others post at the same time and it doesn't make sense, we'll just fix the order so they do. :-) It doesn't have to make complete sense...remember, this is just for fun and games! :-)

Thank you and Lisa and Marsha for posting...call out other people to post, too...so far all we have is Janice looking at snow! Nothing else is happening!

It's Worth A Fortune

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Myths About Writers

By
Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
