Random Act of Kindness BLITZ!

A smile. An encouraging word. A thoughtful gesture. Each day people interact with us, help, and make our day a bit brighter and full. This is especially true in the Writing Community. 
Take a second to think about writers you know, like the critique partner who works with you to improve your manuscript. The writing friend who listens, supports and keeps you strong when times are tough. The author who generously offers council, advice and inspiration when asked.
So many people take the time to make us feel special, don't they? They comment on our blogs, re-tweet our posts, chat with us on forums and wish us Happy Birthday on Facebook.



Kindness ROCKS!

To commemorate the release of their book The Emotion Thesaurus, Becca and Angela at The Bookshelf Muse are hosting a TITANIC Random Act Of Kindness BLITZ.  And because I think KINDNESS is contagious, I'm participating too!
I am blitzing Shannon Hitchcock because we've been friends, writing critique pals, and conference buddies for years now. Shannon always makes the time to review whatever I'm working on and chat with me about it when I'm stuck. Awesome. So, as my random act of kindness, I'm offering Shannon a Barnes & Noble gift card because she loves to read (of course).  If you have a minute, why not stop by Shannon's blog to see for yourself how great she is? www.shannonhitchcockwriter.blogspot.com
Do you know someone special that you'd like to randomly acknowledge?
Don't be shy--come join us and celebrate! Send that person an email, give that person a shout out, or show your appreciation in another way. Kindness makes the world go round. :)
Becca and Angela have a specialRAOK gift waiting for you as well, so hop on over to The Bookshelf Muse to pick it up.
