Good news abounds! I
have had a fun couple weeks. Sure there
was one rejection letter in there, but you know it didn't completely knock me
down this time. I must be toughening up!
If you have an aversion to exclamation
points, please sit down before continuing (bad habits die hard.)
I bought myself! At
the low price of $10, I am a steal. My
name at least- as in "www.laurimeyers.com." Woot, woot! "But what about the dirty girls?"
you cry. No worries. The girls are still dirty, and their mom's
parenting is still lacking. More things
I am too embarrassed to share but do anyway are bound to occur!
My first page picture prompt got selected for agent critique
over at Writing and Illustrating! Ever
since dragons took over London, poor Copernica has not been able to keep up
with fashion at all. If you are a YA writer looking for
prompts, please check out Kathy Temean's site.
The award requires me to share 7 things I never get tired
of:
1. I never get tired of staring at the kids when they are
sleeping. They are precious. And the house being quiet doesn't hurt
either.
2. I never get tired of a really fabulous spreadsheet. Analysis, graphs, and spectacular color
coding speak to me like music. Nerd alert
noted.
3. I never get tired of the excitement a thunderstorm warning
starts. The sky darkens. The trees start to sway. The air is scented with the coming
storm. Then I chicken dash into the
house.
4. I never get tired of swinging. Well, sometimes my rear falls asleep, but
that's different.
5. I never get tired of really good/bad sci fi. Did you see the History Channel Mermaid show? If that and "Revenge of the
Chupacabra" were on at the same time, my head would explode.
6. I never get tired of finding the moon. It always makes me feel a little better
knowing it's there.
7. I never get tired of pizza.
'Nuff said.
Here are my 7 nominees for the Very Inspiring Blogger
Award. Thank you to these blogs for
partying with my blog:
Well, I am going to store up all this bliss, glee,
happiness, joy, contentment, delight (I couldn’t pick just one synonym) to pad
myself for any rejections that may be lurking at the post office. Or maybe just maybe, good news will beget
more good news.
What do you have to be
thankful for? Share your good news in
the comments!
