Julie Particka aka Selestial aka a pretty great author friend of mine and fellow OWG member has awarded me a Versital Blogger award. Now I have to tell you seven interesting facts about myself.
And nominate a few bloggers myself.
First the nominations: Mardel of Rabid Reader fame
And Tammy Crosby aka CNDWMN
You two have to post 7 interesting facts now too 🙂 bwahahaha. Tammy is a fellow OWG member, great beta reader and awesome banner artist. Mardel is a wonderful book reviewer, friend and proof reader 🙂
Interesting Facts
1. Like Selestial, Halloween is my favorite Holiday, followed closely by Thanksgiving. I love holidays that are all about parities and food and dressing up. Talk like a Pirate day is pretty cool too. lol.
2. I’m a sailor. 🙂 No, really, I race one design dingies.
3. I have a horde. three cats, one dog and a horse and a boyfriend. Quite the horde.
4. this one might not come as a surprise, but I have a vampire jedi living in my head. Recently my friend also told me that I had a vampire shoulder angel and a Jedi shoulder angel.
5. I’ve been writing vampire fiction since before it was popular. Kat, aka Ekatarine, is one of my favorite characters and she will see publication some day 🙂 (she’s the vampire Jedi living in my head. Long story that.)
6. I’m convinced that shaving your legs (if you’re a girl) is completely overrated.
7. I’m crazy. Oh, wait… that’s common knowledge. I waited ten years to get a dog, even though I’ve wanted one ever since I left home. I wanted to make sure I had as close to a good lifestyle for a dog as I could. Especially since I knew I wanted an active, intelligent dog. Yeah, I got a Border Collie, doesn’t get more active or intelligent than that 🙂

Awe jeez, thanks Julie! I love more work… lmao! 😉 JK!
Great post and I LOVE the monster cover, sooo fun! 🙂
Oh, and I should have noted, it’s a tough call between the Russet fur monster and the bright blue one. But I like the bright blue one best. It would defineately get noticed and be a good conversation starter. Alas, I am Canadian and have a Kobo. lol! 🙂
Yay more work for you! I had to share the love. LOL. Kim’s monsters are pretty kick ass.
Tammy I’m reposting your entry over on the site. I did a direct copy and paste of the rules without completely reading them. So you actually gotta post on her blog. Sorry.
