Maryann Becomes Mrs. Branch

I have entered my novel wanna-be, Maryann, now entitled Mrs. Branch, in a writing competition called First Chapters. It's sponsored by Touchstone/Simon & Shuster, and it takes place here. Vote for me, vote for me, vote for me.

Because of the competition, I have deleted my own Maryann site--she has moved onto other mediums, hopefully paper and ink.

oh Robyn, now I will have to wait till it comes out in paperback to read it. I knew I should have made a copy.

Good luck with this, can I still vote for you even though I have not read the entire novel?

Rich, I'm sorry about that. I can e-mail the file to you if you really want it.

I may have spoken too soon--it will not actually be posted for another day or two. Sorry for the false start, but it appears they don't add entries on weekends, lazy bumbs.

Janiebelle, sorry about that. I actually thought about putting it off for a week or two, but I just couldn't stand it. Shoulda been faster. :)

GG, I would be really interested in what you think--good AND bad. I tried to get Dive to gripe, but he wouldn't.

Good luck Robyn!

I had seen your entries on it, but as I started coming here around chapter 10 or so, I didn't begin because I can never even get caught up on normal blog reading, so I didn't want to start it in the middle!

Give us the link and we will vote like crazy!

Cindy Loo Who In October

What is it with people and Cindy Loo Who? Of my last one hundred blog hits, forty have been direct visits from regular readers, and fifteen have been as a result of people searching for "Cindy Loo Who," the little pixie from Seuss's How The Grinch Stole Christmas . A couple of years ago, I posted an image of the original Seuss illustration as compared to the TV cartoon image, and for some reason, that post is bringing in the crowds, relatively. Maybe it's the weather. It isn't even November yet, and already we've had frost and have had to dust off our winter coats. When it gets cold like this, I start to think about Christmasy things like listening to Nat King Cole and decorating the tree. It's ironic because I am offended when retailers start pushing holiday stuff early, but I don't mind my own private celebrations. When my sister and I were much younger and still living with our parents, we would pick a day in July, close the curtains to darken the ...

Happy Birthday To...

Pope Leo IX (the Pope) JCF Bach (German composer) Jane Russell (of Gentlemen Prefer Blonds fame) Daniel Carter Beard (founder of the Boy Scouts of America) Jean-Paul Sartre (French philosopher) Maureen Stapleton (Academy Award winning actress) Mariette Hartley (who?) Prince William of Wales (the prince) but most importantly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 45 years ago today, I was born in Alabama in a small town on the banks of the Tennessee River. Yesterday, someone asked me if my family has any birthday traditions. The answer is no. My family never cared very much, but I do remember a few birthday highlights. I was given a birthday party in the back yard when I was ten years old. Two years later, my sister got married on my birthday, so I was just a bit overlooked, although I did get a stuffed animal--it was a white Yorkshire terrier with an AM radio in its stomach. When I turned 20, a different sister took me to an outdoor performance of Dvorak's New World Sympho...
