FF is...Not So Funny

Michael Di Gesu, (everyone knows that dude right? Super awesome? Writes some of the best posts? YEA! That guy!) gave me a great honor this past Thursday with this beauty:

Which really means a lot to me! Thanks so much Michael!! Pop on over to see him if, by some weird fluke, you don't know him!

Gotta pass it along to Abby Minard, Jennie Bailey, and Melissa Wideen first of all, because I know how hard they are all working on novels too.

Also, in no particular order, just fab people who never fail to bust out some writerage:
Erica & Christy
Mary Vaughn
Donea Lee
Alexia Chamberlynn
Candace Granger
Matthew McNish
Jen Daiker


I'm stock piling my funnies this week for a reason you shall not know. BUT I do bring you some awesome 2011 YA can't wait's!! I hope to PUMP you all up for St Patties day!

You see, if you hadn't heard, Alexia and I have teamed up to bring you goodies! We will each be picking our favorite entry for our SPD blogfest (button is the little dude riding that damn pig over there to your LEFT) And the winner gets to pick their choice of a 2011 new release as a prize! Hazzah!

So here are a few of the MILLIONS of goodies to come this year! Some you can click on to find out more, some have the caption below that will take you there. I was having issues....SHUT UP! ;)

    I'm so excited about some of these! The covers are really lovely though.

    PS. I'm racing to finish DEAD WITCH WALKING. I was reading along nicely and then Wham! the book got AMAZING. I can barely sit still at work.

    OH SIGH! I love these covers. And SO many good books. I wish I had time to write something for your blogfest!!! I also wish I had money to buy more books....But I REALLY need to save my money right now...

    God. I need to get a job. In the fall.... BARS here I come! I'll use my blowjob voice to get good tips. And yes, apparently, I have one. It was news to me too. But when I was being taught how to bartend, our instructor would put us on the spot and have the whole class line up for drinks and act like they all wanted a drink desperately (so we got used to the atmosphere). And he went first and pretended to be one of the customers who didn't really know what they wanted...in those scenarios we have leading questions to narrow down the options....and he stopped me and was like.... okay, okay. I know what you're saying has absolutely no sexual connotation but you're customer service voice sounds like you're offering to get down on your knees and ************ I stared at him, winked, and was like....how do you think I got promoted to manager at McDonalds when I was 16. ;)

    He laughed and told me it was a good recovery because I was totally going to hit on for talking to people like that.

    Sorry... random aside. Anyways! I want money! And time!!

    Thanks for the shout out, Colene,

    I've been wanting to give you an award for some time, and every time some else awarded you before me so now I feel better. WE all deserve that award. Just for keeping up with our WIP's and blogging. Two full time jobs.

    Have a great weekend.
