Word Verification Wednesday Wants Your Favorite

Short and sweet for today. I wanted to revisit some of your top choices for WVW.  These words won the first voting round and I want you to pick your favorite! It's really that easy and not at all because I am WAY behind this week and haven't had a moment to write a real post.


Seriously, though, I'm sorry dudes. I have been butt deep in the slimy waters of revisions and actual pay-the-bills-and-provide-the-noms work work this week. It's been CRAZY! But because of the list of priorities, (1.Writing ze novel, 2. working ze job, 3. eating ze foods, and 4. being ze semi-decent wifey) blogging has had to take the #5 spot this week.

Please know that this does pain me. I miss you guys something fierce. I hate missing out on all the wonderful things you all say that I have grown accustomed to reading on a regular basis. Egads! Dare I say it? I pine for you...

Okay, serious did take a weird turn there, didn't it?

All that just to say that while I am sorry, and I do miss you guys, what would be the point of a blog about a writer's journey to getting published if that particular writer never actually polished up the novel and got it out there? It's like a boat with no sea. A cloud with no air. A bitchin' shade of nail polish with no nails.

Anyway! Vote away, my fine fizzy friends! And I will be back Friday with the LOLs for you all! Hopefully...



ALSO!  Don't forget to sign up for Alexia and my blogfest! You have a little over a week to participate, write something fun, and try to win a new release of your choice!!

    Don't worry Colene... OF all people we know how diligent you are with keeping up with all of us. I wish I had 48 hours a day so I can comment on every blog I love.

  2. Dangit! I thought I was going to be the first vote and Michael beat me to it. Grrr.

    I know what you mean. It's REALLY hard to find a balance between the blogging world and still . . . ya know, WRITING. Bummer!

  8. Tooo funny. Love the poll ;-) ...but you're right. Actual writing needs to occur in a writer's life, and I'm also woefully behind on that front... best of luck!

  24. No worries! Write, write and write some more. We'll be around! :) Oh, to answer quickly - The Dead Zone is pretty cool so far. It made me think Anthony Michael Hall is kind of hot! (too weird?) Happy revising!
