That has some recognizable names to it.     *Grin*

Here’s your chance to read some excerpts.      

Or as one of the authors has cleverly called it -   #buzznuggets

Here’s one -     *grin more*

"Andrew moved restlessly in his chair as he bit his lip to remind his mouth to speak carefully. He knew things were changing, even here in this backwoods. Things were changing, but apparently being able to choose your own path wasn't one of them. -- from Hearing the Past (River Town anthology book) by Shawna Christos"

Well, not weep.  Not those kind of stories.  I think.

Oh, just buy and read.

And  :::foot shuffle:::  if you feel so moved you can come back here and tell me about it.

Or put a good review out There [or Here] for us.

Now I’m off to listen to the new characters and book that’s yammering in my head.   Yes, my head is a very crowded place.   Why do you ask?

Look Look, She Said

Okay, so Not really.

Well, I’m Hoping you’ll stay and read.

I hate being out here by myself with the wind whistling around forlornly.

It seems I was tagged in a blog post to do this :

I didn’t realize I was tagged in said post until a friend told me she had her new blog up.  So of course I dutifully dropped everything I was doing, including answering email from her, and trotted over to check it out.

No, she wasn’t the one that tagged me.   But you Should check her blog out anyway, for her intriguing snippet!     Then you can join me in badger…. Er, Encouraging, yes, that’s the right word, her to Finish this story so we can read it!   Quickly!

So, seeing her mentioning our other friend’s blog - and realizing I’m behind, not only on updating my blog here, I’m also behind in looking at other’s blogs.   Hey, at least it’s equal opportunity.   Or something like that.

I go over to other friend’s blog to read her entry.    She might need to be badger…. Er, Encouraged, also to finish the story quickly so we can read it soon!     But There is where I found my name listed for the Tag.

ACK!      

As can be shown by the blank spaces on this blog I’ve been doing other things.   I was working on writing for awhile.   But the stacks of books were getting in the way.  So having talked my wonderful husband into another bookcase, I quickly moved to fill it up.   Well, after it origami folded and I had to unload all the books I’d stuck up there at 2 a.m. night before.  [When books are on the line I can move quick!]      But he raided the garage drawers and took what braces and brackets and stuff he had and fixed it.    My hero!    And after he’d worked all day And played golf! It was a cheap bookcase but it seems to be doing the job.  So far anyway.  [I moved quickly again.]

Now if it would only progress my writing.

Oh, and Look!   I’m outta time for this.   So will have to do another post.     Or something.

Stay tuned…..
