1. Mystery Lovers Corner - I haven't explored it in-depth, but this site appears to be another great source for readers and writers. A place to promote your book, or find your next read. Check it out.
2. Honestly, I only posted this because the flower I am is so interesting...I thought the description was intriguing and a bit mysterious, so find out what kind of flower you are at This Garden is Illegal!
You Are a Foxglove
"You really want to be a good person, but you have this little mischievous streak that seems to get in the way. Deep down you mean well, but you are just so good at being just a little bit bad."
3. A little Truth at Mark Terry's blog this week. Take it for what it is, roll your shoulders and keep on writing!
4. New-to-me writer's site: One Aimless Writer. Self-proclaimed 'aimless writer' had a writing problem this week and made me feel useful. Plus, I always love another writing blog!
On a down note, I finished a fantastic book on Saturday and was stuck with nothing new to read before bed last night, so I had to go ahead and crack open Charles Toftoy's It's In the Eyes. I am sad to say I could not get past the second page. Honestly, the opening paragraph nearly stopped me. But I wanted to give it a good shot since Toftoy dedicated the book to his undergraduate student, raped and murdered in Washington, D.C. Unfortunately, even a good heart couldn't keep me with this one.

Sounds like you've got some great links for me to check out Michele - thanks :)
ReplyDeleteI'll check out the links. If you have to be a flower, better to be a foxy one!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the links. I took the flower test and I am a Daffodil.
ReplyDeleteJemi- Anytime!
ReplyDeleteElizabeth- That's what I'm saying!
V.S.- Curious what the description was...Beautiful flower!
Nice links!
ReplyDeleteI'm sad for you about the book. Don't you hate it when you just can't get into a book? I usually force myself to keep going and then give up halfway. Your approach makes so much more sense!
Toftoy's book too gritty? I can't read those, either.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links!
