KSM - back in business

It's a new year and there are several blog hops, contests, and challenges coming up.
  • I am inviting you to join Auntie Tara's Short Story minute. I will post my first prompt tomorrow! If it strikes you and you have time, I'd love to hear your story!
  • Do you know Abby Fowers? She is a wonderful gal who writes children's fiction and supports everyone she meets! Well, don't get too excited because she's closing down her blog =( BUT, that is because she made a new blog under her new pseudonymn, Leigh Covington! And to celebrate her rebirth, she is having a contest - check it out!
  • And thanks to Angie and "Cassie Mae" for offering the "I'm hearing voices" blogfest - it will build character! (groan)





  • Many of you know about the "It's getting hot in here" blogfest. I'm not the best at romance writing, but I just edited a funny romantic scene, so I may just have to do that!

  • PreviewAnd the A to Z blogfest in April has a bunch of new hosts and hostesses this year. Stop by the dedicated site to find out more =) I like this fest because I meet so many new people and it gives me inspiration all month!
Got more? Tell me about it!
Keep writing!

    I mentioned Cassie's romance blogfest today along with several other big blog happenings this week. Glad you're excited about the Challenge!

    I think the A2Z is the only one I can handle. Writing an entire story requires too much creativity...the best I can do is a four sentance blog. Look forward to reading others, though.

    Ooh, how exciting! I will certainly be over for Auntie Tara's Short Story minute. Sounds like lots of fun.

    As far as your buy a book poll on the side --- I actually look into a book from the cover, but buy it by opening it up to random pages in the middle to see if I like the writing. I don't trust first pages and I don't want to read the cover blurb in case it gives away too much of the story, so I head straight to the middle. :)

    A lot of exciting events happening. I'm looking at the A to Z blogfest. That one sounds like a big challenge for me. But I think I can give it a try.

    Thanks for all these links!

    I think the A to Z Challenge would kill me, but I love reading what people come up with.

    I'm considering doing the character blogfest...not sure, though. I think I'll do the A-Z challenge again this year, if I can figure out what my theme is! Last year I wrote letters to characters, ideas, etc....but it was so much fun and I met so many awesome people; I don't want to miss out this year.
