Tagged - Writing Meme

Anya tagged me. I’ll tag NJ, Shelley, TJ and Charli

Turn to page 123 in your work-in-progress. (If you haven’t gotten to page 123 yet, then turn to page 23. If you haven’t gotten there yet, then get busy and write page 23.) Count down four sentences and then instead of just the fifth sentence, give us the whole paragraph.

I’ll do that and give you a teeny bit more from Goddess With A Blade…

He jerked his head, gesturing at the room. “I get here, three floors below and Ben is there, telling me you’ve moved. What did you do to warrant this place, Rowan?”

His lips were so close to hers she felt his words as he spoke.

“It was a bonus from my employer. I just returned the day before yesterday. I called you last night but you weren’t in. Did you miss me?” She couldn’t help but ask.

He pressed into her harder, leaving no doubt. “What do you think? And you didn’t answer my question, where’ve you been?”

“On a case. I told you that before. Things got complicated. I needed to deal with some fall out and it’s done. I’m back.”

10 Weird Things

Lori tagged me so here I go…

1. The sound of iceburg lettuce being turn or cut makes me gag. I’m not kidding.

2. I know the entire soundtrack for Hair the musical

3. My cousin Trena and I made up a cheerleading routine to Loverboy’s Working for the Weekend the summer I was 12. I still remember the opening parts.

4. Any time the movie Valley Girl comes on I watch it. At one time I knew the whole script, I still know about 50% of it.

5. I was in the Andy Gibb fanclub.

6. I love to dip french fries in chocolate milkshake

7. I collect books with disobedient secretaries and wives in the title. I don’t read them, I just like to see them on my shelves.

8. I love funky socks. Luckily my husband indulges this habit and brings me home a great new pair every once in a while. If you’re going to be at RT, you’ll probably see some of them.

9. I say “dude” too much

10. I love navy beans. With catsup.

Yes, I am odd and that’s just the surface, LOL!! I’m supposed to tag people but I’m pretty sure everyone’s been tagged. How about TJ, Shelley, Megan and Anya?

Thirteen Things I Say Too Much



Thirteen Things I Say Too Much

1. Fuck (it’s such a great word and you can add all sorts of things to it to dress it up - some of my favorites: monkeyfucker, fucktard, fuckadoodledoo)

2. Dude (I know, it’s terrible but I can’t help it!)

3. Stop That! (you can throw in, “stop touching your_____” and “Get your finger/hands out of your _______)

4. Get out! (and not “get out of the pantry Morrigan, if you get near the chocolate powder again I’m sending you to convent school” but in a no way sort of way)

5. Although

6. Whatever

7. What is that? (usually followed up rather quickly by, “no, don’t tell me, just wash your hands - with soap and water, please)

8. Yeah, yeah, yeah

9. As if

10. Ew

11. Nu uh!

12. Conversely (see, I do have a brain in there somewhere!)

13. Come here and let me kiss it (by the way, my husband likes this one as much as my kids do)

1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that’s playing
