Ghostly Hands in the shower, and Linky Love

I'm having a good old time laughing on my Facebook page about, um, the weird thing that happened to me while I was in the shower. This came after a night of really bizarre dreams. But the comments about it are cracking me up The weird thing that happened is this, and I'll just cut and paste from FB status:

At the risk of sounding really weird (hush up! I heard that!) here's what happened: I was in the shower, rinsing shampoo from my hair, pushing my hands through my hair—right hand, left hand—when suddenly I felt a THIRD HAND push against my head! Freaked. Me. Out! I turned, heart pounding: nothing there. Then I realized it must have only been water hitting my head just so—that's my story & I'm sticking to it. Dang.

Ghostly hand helping me wash my hair - good lawd! Then last night, my coffee maker turned on and started the coffee while I was in bed reading -LAWD! - okay, maybe it was accidentally programmed - or ... do do do do do do do do do do do do .... So, anyone have ghostly tales?

Today I have links -

I was a guest at the wonderful William Johnson's place: Life through the Prism: an author's journal - stop by and say hello and visit: Writing out the Fear . . .

I hope you'll go by the Rose & Thorn Journal blog - lots of good stuff there. I am the first post today (we post every Wednesday) but if you scroll down, you will see so many great posts about writers and writing and life. We have a feature called "Back Story" where the writers we have published in Rose & Thorn Journal write a post for the blog about their experience or thoughts, etc, on the story they wrote. My post is actually an arcive from my blog here "Behind the Wizard's Curtain."

I just finished two wonderful novels - one is yet unpublished and the other recently published: Our own Sharla Scroggs (She is writing under Sharla Lovelace) has a novel coming out soon - I read it to "blurb" it for her and was so enchanted; I adore her book! I simply could not put it down and was sad when it was over; BRAVA Sharla!

The second novel is The Secret of Lies by Barbara Abate Forte. What is funny is we were both reading each other's novels at the same time and we both loved each other's novels - I felt so lucky to have read two books in a row where I could not put down the book and where I loved loved the characters and setting, etc. Barbara has a great inspiring blog post up today: If you write it, they will reject it.

You can win a copy of Teresa Frohock's newly almost-released book - Win an autographed copy of MISERERE: AN AUTUMN TALE! on her agent's blog, Weronika Janczuk.

Jan O'hara, Miz Tart, is doing a survey on Author Interviews - she'd love your help and response!

Okay, that's enough for today. Y'all have a good great day and weekend to come!
