Pump up our blog!

Hey guys! Guess what? It has nearly been a year since we got together and created literary magic. And this blog is still in motion. sort of. That's really great, and we should do better. I have found that I don't even check the blog every month now. I am going to change that. Vive la resistance! I am going to post something new at least once a week (hopefully). If anything, I will suggest a story, a character (whether it be fictional or non fictional), and a prop. These can either be good or bad, it matters not. I will state my opinion and I hope you will comment. If I don't get comments on the first four I try, then I'll just give up, no hard feelings. I just want to pump us up, thats all. I think it's really great to have a blog where I can talk to other aspiring authors, AND PUBLISHED AUTHORS (I can't wait to go to a book store and casually tell my friend 'Iknow her, and dang this lady and I are tight like sprite') You all had great stuff, so of course it'll be published. So, participate if you will and if you dare. I'm feeling devilishly enthused, so you might not get rid of me if you give me any encouragement.
Right here I'd like to pause and pay homage to cookies. Girl scout cookies, specifically. I'd like to kiss whoever had the idea to make these deliciouse bits of heaven and share with us lowly commoners. Kiss them on the mouth. Unless it's a woman. Then a firm handshake seems in order.
If I ever use the term 'kiss them on the mouth' again, slap me. That sounds so gross.
Anyway, my point of writing that was to convince you to support your local girl scouts and taste heaven, for it may just inspire the greatest love scene of your life, whether or not there is a good looking cookie maker involved.
How are you all doing on your stories? Anything exciting happening? I just had another explosion, so I'm good on my quota.
I hope that you'll all join in on this revamp of our only form of communication.

LOL...now *that's* enthusiasm ;)

I do check this blog... maybe once a week. I have been steadily working on revising draft #3 of one story, and mulling over approaching draft #2 of another. And then there are the other three stories I've gotten about 50 pages into each.

So, I've plenty to do, and am working steadily at it...but only after the day job!

I check it when I remember. I loooove it. And I am going to try to keep up with it and post in it more, myself. BUWAH! HA HA
