My secret identity

If the title of this blog post makes you think of Jerry O'Connell, you're not alone.



But today we're talking about a different secret identity! Last week on my blog I introduced you to the talented Megan Crane. She's the one with the secret identity. Okay, well, it's not really quite so secret since we're talking about it here and most of her readers know about it, but.... Well, just go with me here!

Better than Disney!!

Okay, I know that the subject line is totally sacrilegious, BUT- New York Mag is reporting that there are talks to create a LOST theme park!!!

She's a total rock star!!

So, I know we all use the expression "you're a rock star!" all the time, but one of my girls from the Girlfriends Cyber Circuit really is one now!!!

The fabulous Wendy Nelson Tokunaga just recorded a video that is a companion piece to her novel, LOVE IN TRANSLATION. The book features a Japanese song called "The Wishing Star," and Wendy wrote that song!! Her hubby then composed the music, and voila!

Check out Wendy belting it out-- in JAPANESE, no less!-- here:
