Fun Filled Friday

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!

The snow had been falling steadily for over 3 hours.


(What a fun idea :)

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!

Get Thee A Nom De Plume!

Good Evening One & All, Shakespeare wrote in Romeo & Juliet, "What's in a name?...A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Disney talked about names in Aladdin in the lyrics, "Better get a nom de plume ." (the song, "One Jump"). So, for a writer, what does a nom de plume (or, pen name) say about the author? It could be a different spelling of the author's name, it could be a name that has a significance. They could keep their first name, but change the last, or change both. A pen name is also the name a writer will write under for his or her books. The name that his or her readers will recognize them. The name on the autographs and the one where people will say, "Oh yes, that's so and so, they wrote..." Some authors write under their own names. Others, for a variety of reasons, choose a pen name. What about you? Are you considering a pen name? What have you looked at when thinking of your nom de plume ? For myself, I...

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

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...

Gregori Celebrates My Birthday

Happy Tuesday All, ****CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED**** In honor of my birthday (that was on Oct. 15th) I am doing TWO give aways! The FIRST one is TODAY!  Today's give away is a copy of Kerrelyn Sparks' Sexiest Vampire Alive . Kerrelyn, being the awesome person that she is, has agreed to give a signed copy of the novel to ONE lucky commenter on my blog. Here's how it's going to work and please read all instructions CAREFULLY. ONE entry PER person : If you choose to email in your entry: Email to this email ONLY .  Your email should state who your favorite vampire is. And no, it does NOT have to be one of Kerrelyn Sparks' characters, but that would be really cool if you DID mention one of hers. If you choose to enter by commenting on my blog: Leave your FIRST name, email address, and what vampire is your favorite. It can be ANY vampire--but like I said, it would be really cool if you mention a Kerrelyn Sparks' vampire. You don't know Kerrelyn Spa...
