Captain's Log, Supplemental
Lynette tagged me. So I am tagged twice. But I love this particular meme so here's another 15 things to entertain or annoy you:
16) I love Levenger.com. It's a store for writers and book lovers. I spend time every month perusing their catalog from cover to cover. Pathetically.
17) Cussing in books does not bother me.
18) Sex in books does not bother me. I have read Harlequin Blazes and various erotica. GASP! And I still call myself a Christian!
19) I love ebooks because I can carry a several dozen with me in my PDA. What sane book lover wouldn't enjoy being able to effortlessly cart her books with her everywhere?
20) I recently bought 45 MASTER CHARACTERS by Victoria Lynn Schmidt because Dineen was raving about it. And I have to admit, it's a great book so far.
21) I also bought WRITING THE BREAKOUT NOVEL WORKBOOK because both Robin and Dineen raved about it. I'm just a lemming.
22) I am mentioned by name in SAHM I AM by Meredith Efken in her acknowledgements section!!! And she put me before three published authors!!! Bwahahahahahaha! Who says Randy Ingermanson is the only one interested in Total World Domination?
23) I love the old Regency romances. My Listmania list on Amazon.com has most of my favorite authors.
24) I usually have 3-4 books I'm reading at a time. I have a book in each room of the house, including one in each bathroom.
25) How do I know how many books I own? Because I have an Excel spreadsheet listing them all by author's last name. Before you gasp in organizational horror, Heather has the same thing.
26) On that Excel spreadsheet, I also list the books I've read in the past few years, whether I kept them or not. I put down my impressions of the story and characters next to the title.
27) Reading now: WITH THIS RING, I'M CONFUSED by Kristin Billerbeck.
28) You can get a free download of the MP3 of PYROMARKETING by Greg Stielstra at www.pyromarketing.com. So far, it's been a great book.
29) I just finished a Betty Neels book, THE COURSE OF TRUE LOVE. Sure, it was predictable, but it's so romantic and comforting. There's also a lot of neat subtexting.
30) I mentioned I love eating while reading. My favorite snack is taro chips, which my parents brought to me from Hawaii.
Writing: I'm now going to go revise because Robin scolded me.

I'm anxious to see you pubbed, so hurry up.
Hugs!
I sat for an hour yesterday and wrote ONE PARAGRAPH. And I don't even like the paragraph. I hate days like that.
I want to write 10 perfect pages every time I sit down. Is that too much to ask?
ARGH.
Mir--who also doesn't mind sex in books, only minds badly done, salaciously done, pages and pages and pages of cliched sex in books.
Okay, you've been shaken. :)
Mir, sounds like my day. Except after that one paragraph started looking somewhat decent to my tired brain, the computer fritzed and I lost said paragraph. Nothing like losing something you convinced yourself you wanted, eh?
