Zounds! We Have Discovered POLL Technology! Next Stop, the MOON!

Hello lovely readers!

I want you to know that even when I’m not actually blogging, I am thinking about blogging quite a lot.  Sure, mostly I’m thinking: “oh blorgh, I have to blog,” or “dagnabit, I forgot to do my blog again,” or “OK I really have to blog tonight so MY MOM WILL STOP CALLING ME ABOUT IT.”  But at least it’s on my mind, right?  🙂

See Erin Hunter on Tour!

That’s right, it’s a real live Warriors tour!  Starring the one and only Vicky Holmes!  She’s coming to the USA, like, THIS WEEK and you could meet her!  I know there’s about a bajillion of you serious Warriors fans out there who keep wishing Erin Hunter would come to your town…so if you’re anywhere in the Northeast (especially NJ/NY/CT/VT/MA), seize the opportunity and chase her down!  🙂

Brought To You By Panicking About Deadlines

Cannot possibly blog tonight!  Must be writing instead!  So I’ve been looking for something interesting to link to for you, and wasting WAY TOO MUCH TIME; this is terrible.  Internet!  Just interesting enough to suck me in but not interesting enough to re-post and save me time!  Bah!  Why are you torturing me?

Busy Spiders and Dancing Dragons

Hi hi!

My blogs will probably be wobbly and short (like the baby! ha ha! sorry, that was terrible) until this manuscript is done, so I’m just popping on today to mention two of the new favorite books in this house.  We have definitely entered the stage of rereading certain books over and over (AND OVER) again.  Who taught this kid the sign for “more”?  Who thought that was a good idea?  My goodness.  😉

The Baby Leaves Me All in Awe :-)

Hello everyone!

We are entering Panic Month here at trying-to-finish-a-manuscript HQ, so you may notice the blog posts get shorter and less intelligent for a while, especially this week, when I am trying to write and also organize my baby’s FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTY HOLY BATS HOW DID THAT HAPPEN???????  He’s almost one year old!  So big!  :-)
