My dear friend, Susan (pictured here with author Peter Jacobi), and I got to spend some little quality time together this weekend. (Me...full of smiles) We talked about books, agents, submissions and blogs. We even played games (Susan and Sharon with big smiles...husbands...not so much). If you haven't checked Susan out, please do.
To my surprise, Susan presented me with a Creative Writer Award last month. I've been directed to tell six untruths and one truth, so here I go...
I was born in England in 1963. I lived in a house with no toilet or bathtub. We only had water in the kitchen sink.
I moved to America when I was 10. I moved to North Dakota and was super excited because the toilet was inside the house!
I married my high school sweetheart. We dated for two years, got married and had a baby right away.
I was a disc jockey on a local radio station in college. I interviewed former President Bill Clinton and Miss USA, Terry Utley.
I've met Bill Clinton, Dale Bumpers, Sam and Helen Walton and J.B. Hunt. Helen Walton told me that if your husband didn't see you eat cake, the calories didn't count and J.B. told my husband he married above his head.
I once ate 3 Mc Rib sandwiches and a large order of fries. (Ah, to be young again...)
When I was in Costa Rica (last year) I touched an alligator.
HMMM....Which one is true? (The big reveal and pass the award along is tomorrow.)
The lovely ladies, Bethany and Suzette, at Shoot Star awarded me the Silver Lining award for venturing into the 21st Century. I did a two part Skype interview with literary agent Mark McVeigh. Bethany and Suzette are having an AWESOME CONTEST!!! Suzette's agent is giving away a 40 page critique!!!! So hop over and fill out their easy form. Good luck everyone!
How many of you are numbers people...detail orientated... I bought a Bodybugg today. I spent a huge chunk of the day on the computer figuring it out (hopefully). I'm looking forward to checking it at the end of each day to see if I had a calorie deficit. I can't wait to add another column to my workout spread sheet. Does anyone have a bodybugg? Have you had any success with it?
