Quote and The Whole Shebang

Today I have the fortune to be a guest on The Whole Shebang Site. TWS has dedicated itself to promoting not just writers but other fields of creativity like music and art. When you visit, check out their archives and meet some very interesting people. I'll be talking about reading across genres and how it helps my own writing. I would love to hear your apinion on it. See you over there where you can get a first peek at my newest book cover for The Marine's Queen.

Today is make up day Movie Quote. I would laugh at Alex Cavanaugh for forgetting the romantic quote from last week except I totally forgot it also and I had it written down. Searching for this quote made me realize how few romantic flicks we own or even watch. So I had to go back to teh movie that explains everything in life.

From The Princess Bride, Wesley: "As you wish."

Which if you watch the movie, you know those words mean 'I love you.' Is there anything more romantic than a couple that has their own secret communication? Do you have that with your significant other? Do you understand what is beneath his or her words?

Thanks Alex for running this fun quote day. Thanks, Misty, for having me at Shebang.

Sign Up and Fantasy Quote

An exiting mid week day. Wednesday means the week is half over. Not that I'm counting down the weeks until retirement. I think from now on, I'm going to write that word in all caps. RETIREMENT! Yes, I'm counting days and weeks. But I'm also counting down to April and 2013's A to Z challenge. I might be doing a theme this year. Other years I did post on general writing thingies. Something more specific this year.

Go over to the A to Z blog and sign up or visit the blog of any of the many wonderful, energetic hosts and sign up. Sign up. It's a great way to grow your followers, meet some very clever bloggers and gain a wonderful feeling of personal accomplishment. When you're finished, you also find yourself more efficient at posting and visiting other bloggers.

Another thingy going on today is Alex Cavanaugh's newest brainstorm, Wednesday Movie Quotes. Today the quote is supposed to come from light fantasy. I'm sure I won't be the only one quoting this movie and this character.

You keep using that word. I do not think it mean what you think it means.
