DAY 41

Word Count: 26,379

Sentence of the Day: She's nothing but a lace-covered tart.


YIPPEE!!!

I got an award. Granted, it has strawberries on it and I happen to hate fruit, but hey...an award's an award, and I'll take whatever small victory comes my way. My thanks to Gwendolyn Gage over at Serving Through Words for nominating me for the "Irresistibly Sweet Blog Award."

In order to win this fruity trophy, I'm required to share 7 random things about myself and pass the award on to 10 other blogs. Here goes...

7 Random Facts About A Semi-Deviant Author

1. Let's just say that in hindsight, belly dancing in public was a bad idea.

2. When I was a kid, my mom brought me in to see a doctor because I had regular conversations with Daniel Boone underneath the dining room table. Is it any wonder I write fiction?

3. The Count of Monte Cristo is my all-time favorite movie.

4. I'm a Trekkie at heart. When I grow up, I want to be just like Lt. Uhura...except I don't think my thighs would look that great in such a short dress.

5. I can cook. Really. But doggone if I can't make a batch of Rice Krispie Bars that don't turn out like bricks.

6. Centipedes make me scream.

7. My secret identity is Jayshua Porter. Oops. Did I say that out loud?
