Backstory Bits
You always hear about backstory in terms of fictional characters (in books and/or on the screen), so let’s try it with our Friday Bits today.
1) What state were you born in?
2) Did you sleep with a doll or stuffed animal every night as a kid? If so, what?
3) Who taught you to ride a bike?
4) Someone you admired as a kid (besides your parents)?

P.S. I decided to pick two random names from yesterday’s post to win a book of their choice from those I currently have out. Tho...

Autumn’s Finest
While I’m looking forward to squeezing a bit more “summer fun” out of the next few weeks via an upcomingbeach weekend, I have to admit my thoughts are straying toward Autumn.
Honestly, I love all things Autumn–the colors, the more pleasant temperatures, bike rides, decorating the house, baking in my crock pot, and the writers’ retreat I have coming up in November (can’t wait).
To change things up a little today, I thought I’d put a “book of your choice” up for grabs. I’ll pick ONE random name...

Wednesday Ramblings…
**My youngest if off to her first day of school (11th grade) today and I’m left wondering where the time has gone. Seems like just yesterday I took her sister’s first day of 11th grade picture and she’s a junior in college now…
It’s all gone so fast, you know?
**After my workout this morning, I’ll be starting on a brand new writing project. This one isn’t contracted, rather it’s something I want to try. I have a few weeks to devote to it before needing to switch to my next contracted book.

From Sidekick to Lead…
I’m kind of excited about the book-related question I have for you today.
Ready?
Is there a sidekick character (from any book you’ve ever read) you’d love to see spin-off and be a lead in a book of their own?
Who? Why?

Eater’s Choice
Yesterday, my youngest and I were on our own for dinner. So I gave her the choice of what she wanted to do for dinner.
Her pick? An assortment of appetizers.
My addition? Ben & Jerry’s for dessert.
When you’ve got control over dinner, what do you tend to pick?

Three People
Back to the island again today. 
You can bring three people (NOT family members) to this remote island with you.
Who do you choose and why?

Three Things
Remember yesterday’s remote island? 
In addition to your three books, you also get to bring three objects from your home. What would you bring and why?

Three Books
If you were sent to a remote island and told you could only take three books, what would you take and why?

Geek Alert
My friend, Julie, has never met a shoe store she doesn’t like.
My mother could spend days in a clothing store.
Me? I like office supply stores. 
Yep, I’m a total geek. Office supply stores are, essentially, my mother ship. I love walking down the various aisles and looking at the pens, pencils, notepads, sticky-notes, folders, labels, envelopes, etc. And if they’re colorful, even better.
So while I’m not a fan of the lines this time of year always brings to said stores, I’ll take just about a...
