Can I Possible Smash Any More News Into ONE Blog Post...

Happy Thursday All,

Wow! I know I've been very silent lately. We've been battling infections--we thought they were allergies but turned into infections. I've been on an antibiotic for about 2-3 days now and offspring is going on an antibiotic and husband is trying to keep sore throat from needing to go to the doctor. Life is far from boring.

NEW THING-- I am on Twitter now. Yep, I finally decided to just go ahead. I'm still trying to find my way...but you can find me on there @WriteBethanyBethany --profile has a pretty purple background (very fantasy looking, kinda romantic, so I thought it worked. Don't have a background of my own to load up at this point).  The Twitter Feed can be found in the right hand margin of my blog.

I'm prepping for the Lone Star Conference--yes it's right around the corner--October 15, 2011--but there is still time to sign up to go! Beadmore Designs and authors Tess St. John (Adult Romantic Suspense, Historical and Mystery), Téa Trelawny (Adult Erotic Romance) and Christie Craig (Adult Contemporary Romance), are teaming up with me to donate a prize basket for the Conference. You won't know details unless you come. Plus there's keynote speaker Alexandra Sokoloff, 3 agents and an editor coming! This is going to be a really fun conference. It's my third year going and I've had fun at the other two.

What's going on with you?

Have A Terrific Thursday!

I've been checking in,Bethany, and hoped you were just happily busy.I am sorry that you havebeen sick and hope you and the family are all O.K.
I was out-of-it myself a bit, as I had a wisdom tooth pulled.While he had his hands in my mouth, the dentist said"Tonette, you are blessed with deep roots". BLESSED! Didn't feel like a blessing with that tooth!
Still trying to re-do my house on a shoestring ...and my oldest son and family are moving back to the area....Cub Scout popcorn sales and outings...much goiong on.
At least, you sound upbeat!
Take care,
Tonette, (who will probably be the last one ever on Twitter)

Tonette,

Well, I can't stay in a blue funk. It's not my style. We're getting better, so that's always a good thing.

Sounds like you've had a lot going on in your life, too! Sorry about the wisdom tooth. I had all mine taken out about 5 years ago or so. It wasn't my favorite life experience, but I have a very gentle dentist and oral surgeon who are very good at what they do, so I was in good hands.

I have my Twitter Feed listed in my margin, so you can look there to see what I'm saying on Twitter.

Thanks for dropping by :-)

You're doing a basket too?! I so need to get with it. I'm still such a noob in the organization and love the fact women like yourself are involved. Don't mind me at the conference. I'll be the girl in the corner watching and learning from folks like yourself.

RM--

Yeah. It's slowly coming together. There's a few items I'm waiting on. Don't worry, you still got time! As for organization, I think that depends on the person and what they're working on. Some people are organized with everything, some people only with some things. Thanks so much for dropping by and commenting

Get Thee A Nom De Plume!

By
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...
