@catwing Book signings add value.
I actually just watched the Skit Guys for the first time. I think the one I watched was called “mommy goggles”.

Then too, your blog posts should be above and beyond what people expect.

@catwing That’s true. A blog can give people extra value.

@catwing Well, I think what you have inside of the book is certainly part of it. If you write a book that blows people away, then you’ve gone above and beyond what they expected. I’m more interested in things besides your story though. No book can blow every reader away. We need other lines of defense.

@daughteroftheking @winter-rose And usually I stay a dragon…just because it’s easier to roam middle earth that way.

So folks, let’s see how inventive you are.
I was just at a conference and, in one of the talks, a guy said that whatever you do, you should practice the principle of going the extra mile.
I immediately thought of writing. Immediately after that, I was stumped. How does one go the extra mile in writing?
What people expect is a good story, a…[Read more]

@seekjustiace Oh yes, I heard about the Vegemite chocolate. My friend and her mum and brother tried it, and I think they said it was disgusting. It just sounds disgusting.

@f5a8c3e92 @shannon Yeah, people who don’t know it do take too much. It’s not like peanut butter where you can spread it all over and the worst you get is a sticky mouth. I once watched American people trying Australian foods, and when they got to the Vegemite, they were spreading too much, and one dude took a whole spoonful and ate it, and gagged.

@Majerot *shields you from potential assault with her dragon-wings* That’s okay. 😉 I get it.
