I Just Got Pinteresting

I don't expect to be a frequent Pinterester, but I've been interested in setting up an author account there, and yesterday I finally did---spurred on by my desire to share the mad crafting skillz that have become my latest obsession, that thing I shouldn't be doing that I'm spending way too much time on (but I've got a lovely group of people coming to my Wine & Sign Party next week and there's not a chance I'm letting any of them escape without a homemade bookmark).

Now that my Pinterest page is set up, I see the real beauty in it. It's not promo, it's organization. It's one fabulous overview of the fun stuff I want to keep track of! If any of you are Pinterested, please come find me over there or leave a link to your page in the comments below. I want to see your fun stuff too. :)

And now if you'll excuse me, I've got a lot more of these to make:

I've had a Pinterest account for a while but never really used it. I've just started trying to use it more and am enjoying it now. Heading over to your page now! :)

I really need to check out Pinterester. One more thing on my to do list.

I love the bookmarks, they're so pretty! I've marked my calendar for next week. Sounds like a great time! And then I can put my signed copy of Divine Temptation right next to Three Daves!

You are quite Pinteresting, my love. Do I get a homemade bookmark for Christmas to go with my copy of DT, this year?

Your thingy you're making is adorable. I don't pinterest and am afraid to start because I've heard it's addictive. I wish I could be at the wine and sign party. I can whine with the best of them. I've started Divine Temptation, and I love it. Would you like me to interview you for a blog post before I review it? It will probably take me another week or two to finish reading it.

Love,
Janie

That looks so cool! That's so resourceful of you to make those, and they're nicer than the ones you can buy in stores, which are often overpriced anyway. I wish I could make stuff like that, but I've never been good at making crafts; seeing as how it takes me about ten minutes every day just to untangle my headphones for my iPod, I figure it would take me a lot longer to figure out how to make one of those. :)

I have an account too. But as you said, it can suck you in and not let you go. Kinda like researching on the internet, lol.

Before I start talking dirty, guess what happened---I hit 200 followers!   My 200th follower is Tony VanHelsing (who I'm going to assume is a descendent of you-know-who, and if anyone knows differently do not tell me).  To celebrate this milestone, how about I put Three Daves on sale for only 99 cents in Nook , eBook, ePub , and even Kindle until September 30th. ;) For today's feature post, visit Irish beauty Carol Oates .  This talented author and I discuss Adult versus Young Adult and where the line gets crossed.

Lexa & Julie's Dream Destinations Blog Hop & #Giveaway

Image
We're celebrating the release of Julie Flanders' The Ghosts of Aquinnah   and Lexa Cain's  Soul Cutter   with a Dreams Destinations blog hop. Aaand Lexa & Julie are hosting a great GIVEAWAY.  Visit either Lexa's blog or Julie's blog to enter and also to find the Linky list so you can travel to more dream destinations. It was unbelievably difficult for me to settle on just one place. I decided to make it somewhere I'd never been before...and then I decided to stop over thinking and just pick a place already...and I landed at Piazza San Marco in Venezia, or as we call it for some reason, Venice. (Does anyone know why we don't all call it Venezia?) I would stroll the square, sidestepping pigeons and saying buongiorno to people whose eyes met mine, not worrying about my sorry accent. I would have tickets for that evening's opera in my pocket and a caffe-flavored gelato in my hand. I'd be wearing a darling scarf I'd just purchased, arr...

Top 10 Movie Countdown Blogfest

Yay, today's the day for another of Alex. J. Cavannaugh's famous blogfests. I'd like to thank him not only for hosting, but for keeping it simple & fun---coming up with this list and looking at posters of my most favorite movies turned out to be quite a cathartic exercise. I hope you found it to be the same (assuming you were in need of catharting). Thanks, Big Al. These are in the order of my affection for them: 1. Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl 2. Raiders of the Lost Ark 3. Star Wars: A New Hope 4. When Harry Met Sally 5. Return of the Jedi 6. The Empire Strikes Back 7. Toy Story 8. Mystic Pizza 9. Goodfellas 10. Jaws  I'm allowing myself two more because I think it was really good of me to count the original Star Wars Trilogy as three separate entries: 11. Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring 12. Pirates of the Caribbean: D...
