My Fabulous Idea!
Ah, I'm so humble.
So I finally came up with an idea that will help take care of at least a few posts (without me having to plan them out too much in advance or brainstorm topics) and will be fun!
There is a Canadian website called Wattpad that is very popular. People of all ages write novels/poems for the world to see, for free. Besides the regular people who want to be authors someday, it is also used by quite a few Indie authors to publicize their books and create a following (or sometimes books on Wattpad become so popular that people start asking for it to be published...and then the author self-publishes or goes for a traditional publisher).
Anyways, here's the idea: Every once in a while (I wanna say once a week but that might be too much) I will pick a book, and it has to be a finished book, from Wattpad and spotlight it here on my blog. It won't necessarily be a self-published book. I might include author interviews sometimes if I can get them. And I have yet to come up with an awesome name for this... *stage whispers* you know how I am with names. despicable!
What do you suggest? A Tale or Two? Off the Virtual Bookshelf? (yes. i do know that they are really horrible names. thus why i'm asking for suggestions)
I think this is really gonna work out to be something interesting and fun while helping the writers from Wattpad get a little more recognition (that's assuming that this blog has any recognition....anyone?).
Fingers crossed,

P.S. The linkup will be posted soon.

DeleteA long time ago, we used to be friends
But I haven't thought of you lately at all

Come on now, honey,
bring it on, bring it on, yeah.
~We Used to be Friends by Dandy Warhols
At first I was afraid I was petrified
DeleteKept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
...
Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore

You don't own me

So let's leave it alone, 'cause we can't see eye to eye.
DeleteThere ain't no good guys, there ain't no bad guys.
There's only you and me and we just disagree.

It's nine on the dot and we just talk and we talk,
DeleteAnd I just want it to stop,
Cause aren't we here for the music.
And if you dare,
Just get up out of your chair,
Cause this ain't goin' nowhere,
We've gotta move it or you lose it.
