Nathan Bransford's procrastination subforum has a popular thread just like this. It's a friendly place where your spam can be cherished and celebrated.

Today, I blogged about how to write a great author bio, and your favorite gay boys from In Living Color's 'Men on Film' made a guest appearance:

Let's Talk About Bios, Baby. Let's Talk About You and Me.

Okay, your turn.

Yep!

In fact, this is the 42nd day in a row that I've updated my fiction blog, where all of my first draft prose stuff dwells.

I'm actually pretty pleased with that, as consistancy tends to be a problem of mine, so string together that many days is a small but significant accomplishment for me. I'm still not hitting the numbers I want, but I've completed four short stories and twelve thousand words of a novel this year, which is pretty good.

Especially since one alledgedly short story ended up being eleven thousand words.

My 2011 resolution for my blog was to post at least twice a week. Sometimes I'm hitting it more than that. There used to be days where I had no visitors. That is no longer the case. I even have other blogs now that link to mine. It's the little things in life that make me so happy. I'll probably post tomorrow. I'm thinking that the post is going to be about how hard it has been for me to define the genre of Belvoir. Any thoughts on that one, somebody let know. Multiple genre personality disorder at peelingcheek.wordpress.com. I've already picked out the title.

However, what about the grand exit? What would you like to be known for when you leave this little planet?
I have a statue in front of my old school already for political activities. At nine feet it is under life size. I would like them to make it bigger, and to bulge more realistically at the crotch.

I posted another book review last night for Steven L Hawk's first novel.
Read it here.

There was an inner need to redress some of the points raised in a media article about the fate of Borders and Angus and Robertson in Australia. So I wrote a post on it. My favourite part is the basic maths fail that people have.

I've also just finished Lee Goldberg's new book and will have a review for it soon. Suffice to say for now that I enjoyed it and am looking forward to more in the series.

Every. Single. Day.

Today, I posted about how much fun I'm having on this forum and the one for Echelon Press authors.

I also posted how to add a PubIt button to your blog that links to all your books rather than just one. The permalink, should you care to use it, is http://www.marianallen.com/2011/02/saturday-with-fora/.

Thanks for sharing that link Marian. My book is not yet on Barnes and Noble. Hopefully soon, though. I don't post every day. So congrats to you. But my 2011 resolution was to post at least twice a week. I usually get in at least 2-3 posts a week now. Today's post is about multiple genre personality (dis)order.

Shelia, I loved your post on multiple genre disorder! I have the same problem. If I have to choose one label for a book or story collection, I go all Sophie's Choice and dither my brains out.

Thanks for the Quiet link. It's lovely!

My Advice for Indie Authors series continues with Alain Gomez: http://networkedblogs.com/ex2Ew

Yesterday author Anne Rice talked about this series on her Facebook page and posted a link. The blog got HUNDREDS of hits from her post. She wrote:
"Here's a link to her very impressive blog. She's talking about self publishing. Should be of interest to all of us. It is quite a wonderful site, and there is some invaluable info here offered to authors who are contemplating going independent. Kathleen's posts on other topics on our page here are always excellent, substantive and responsible and enlightening."

Yo, Kathleen, I posted your two samples to my Facebook page.

I'm a bit new to this, so tell me if that is not what the Facebook button is for, if you want your material taken down.
