Favorite Genre's Bloghop

Oh. Let's see. My favorite genres you ask? That's easy to list!

This will be a short, fun post:)

Fiction:

 Christian Historical Fiction. Take me to another time and place and fill my mind with the romance of another era, and I may never come back.


Movie :

 Drama. I love to cry during a movie. and if I am sitting on the edge of my seat during the entire movie, then it gets brownie point:)

Music:

 Classical is my favorite. But no one in my house would listen to it, except during study times. So I guess I'll go with Christian Contemporary.

Guilty Pleasure?

Fantasy, Sci-fi Fiction and movie

50' and 60's sock hop music!
No wait. It's opera. No one in my family likes opera. But I do. Especially after a very stressful day.

    I love a good cry during a movie too. My last time I cried I watched The Help, and then there was War Horse. I can't watch any movie about a horse without bawling.

    Thanks for sharing! Love the new look of your blog!

    Hi,

    Dropping over for the blogfest. I must say I think your blog is THE most happy one I have ever seen. It speaks volumes about you ... quirky, fun, and especially welcoming and friendly.

    Glad I dropped by and followed.

    CLassical music is so inspiring. Too bad the family doesn't enjoy it as much as you do...

    I love classical music. One of my biggest personal frustrations is that I've never made a bigger effort to educate myself about it. That doesn't stop me from listening to classical radio stations, but I'd love to take a college course on the different periods/eras/composers.

    Lovely choices! And I love how Christian Contemporary has become so much more mainstream now too. Such great music.

    Nice to meet you today!

    Although rock is my favorite genre of music, I also enjoy classical. Some of my faves are Rossini, Schubert, Mozart ("Barber of Seville") and of course, Beethoven.

    I once read a study (Harvard newsletter?) where it was proven that classical music significantly improved study habits and increased comprehension.

    As for crying in a movie, nah, not down with that. lol

    Classical isn't my favorite but there are times when it is just what I need. And I'll only watch a movie that makes me cry once.

    I do enjoy classical music. Now if only I could tell my Mozarts from my Schuberts. :)

    I like classical music to listen to, but if you ask me WHO I'm listening to, I'd probably have no idea!

    Hi. Thanks for sharing. I write horror with a Christian spin to it, so I thought I would say hello. I listen to rock and 80's hair metal, but lean on classical music when writing and in need of drowning out the noise of the teenagers in the house. *laughs*
    Very good to meet you.

Operation Agent Ink

UPDATE: PLEASE FILL OUT THIS QUESTIONNAIRE AFTER YOU SIGN UP. Have you ever wondered what agents were dying to find in their inbox/slush pile? There have been many times I entered a contest and not even received a comment, not even from one of the agents. Or maybe the agent was kind enough to leave a comment that simply said, "Sorry, this just isn't what I'm looking for, but I love the premise and your voice." I always walk away feeling unsatisfied. If I had known exactly what the agent wanted beyond, "YA" or "Fantasy" I might not have even entered a contest I knew I wouldn't win! Even more, I wasted a very busy agents time! Well, your time of guessing is up! OPERATION AGENT INK to the rescue! That's right! This workshop will help aspiring authors get on the list of an agent's WISH LIST! When the workshop is over, your manuscript will be ready to view by a group of AMAZING agents who are dying to see what you've wri...

The Writers Voice Entry

How excited am I? Can't you hear me laughing and squeeing, right there where you are? Yep! I'm excited! I made it tot he first round of the Writers Voice!! So today, I've posted my entry, here int his blog post, for the coaches to come around and read and decide if I'm ready to move on to the next round. Keep your fingers crossed for me PLEASE:) The entry I'm posting as went through numerous rounds of edits and revisions to get it where it is already. I've cut, squeezed, rearranged and replaced so much, I think my brain is on fire! I've changed names, combined characters, cut characters, and I've changed titles a couple of times and agonized over my genre until I cried . I've put th e first three chapters through a couple of workshops and had feedback from a few agents, so I'm sure I 've got the results I wanted. (I can be honest, can't I?) So, here we go, you beautiful guys and dolls. Feel free to leave any comments that might ...

I live in a camper. My writing spot? Usually in bed. But sometimes I get a chance to write in the "living room" but that's rare. When I am at home (yay!) I have my own little office:) I love m space there and I can write during the day light hours. Oh, who am I kidding! That's rare. -Quick. Go to your writing space, sit down and look to your left. What is the first thing you see? My husband. Yeah, he sleeps with me! -Favorite time to write? At night. When it's quite. Aaahhh. Sweet quite. -Drink of choice while writing? Depends on the time of day I get to write. In the morning, coffee, coffee and more coffee. (with Creme Brulee creamer!) Afternoon it's iced coffee. After school, it's Dr. Pepper. Night it's water. -When writin...
