Practice Number Three: Practicing


Welcome, welcome, step right up!
Pull a topic from this cup.
Take your topic, write a scene.
Mine may seem somewhat obscene.

Rest assured, you'll see it's point
This'll take an effort that's joint
It's all about community
We're here to promote unity!

That's the theme for today
Others sharing their favorite way
Now it's time to be understood
So, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ , WiP _ _ _ _ _ _ _!
Whip it, WiP it Good!



Clue #1 @ 3:30 EST
These flashy writers make up a team of seven crafty fiction writing challenge creators. Say that five times fast! 1/7 of the group is an alumnus of Heather's Feature Friday. Another 1/7 celebrated a 'birthday' on 2-04-2010.

Clue #2 @ 3:40
Her weekly word count challenge intimidates me, but her daily diversions for writers inspire me to be inky!

A member of the first novels club, this aspiring author entertains and inspires with parodies of the CW's Wampire Diaries and teaches with her recently started Psychology for Writers segments.

Clue #4 @ 4:00
4. Playing telephone while sitting on used carpet squares, a girl whispers into my ear, "More on emotion and plot." I turn and whisper to the boy on my right, "S'mores and marshmallow plop."

Practice Number Two

The Year 2010 is here and…

Clue Number One:
Have a Hamburger and watch Release Day: The Musical. 2/9/2010. Look for comment # 2. And leave your own(You don't really have to watch it now, but come back later. It is great.).

Clue Number Two:
Did you know 2010 is the year of the Tiger? Well, escaping the tiger IS cause for many and varied celebrations.

Clue Number Three:
Find my comment on this very familiar blog! Unconventional, true. Gollem-likesesss you say, also true, but this Author-friend Jamaican-Nigerian-New Yorker-superhero has a Superzero of a story and no book-blog of her own.

Clue Number Four:
Toilet training and drafting: Margie says child rearing and book writing can be perfect together. Inconvenient? Not for Flux Books.

Clue Number Five:
Lindsay and Jane both have books with sensibility in their titles, but Jane’s was published in 1811.

Practice Number One, Or, READY? GET SET? GOOOO!!!

Welcome, to the very first, practice edition of Where In the Blogosphere Is Jon?! For an extra treat, and just to keep you guessing, today, it is Heather who is littering the blogosphere with her uncanny wit and secret phrase. Please take note of the rules at the right.

*sound of running feet, door slamming*

And, Heather's off! Here are some clues so you can follow her to Agent/Editor Blogs (note--I picked these blogs so as to be less intrusive) And, in the spirit of connections, please make a note to go back and visit those blogs which you enjoyed seeing today.

Clue for stop #1: Rachelle, my belle, these are words which go together well, my Rachelle!

Clue for stop #2: Heehaw, heehaw.

Clue for stop #3: This Agent Assistant does not have eight arms, but describes herself as "underpaid and whiskey swilling."

Clue for stop #4: Heather might get waylayed (although not the urban dictionary definition) at this next blog--she might be laughing to hard to see the forest for the trees.

Clue for stop #5: Was it possible for Jacob Wonderbar to increase traffic at this blog? No, but the forum certainly did! Who needs almost 3,000 followers, anyway?

Clue for stop #6: Mary, Mary Quite Contrary, how does your book deal grow? With fantastic authors and publishers' auctions and Andrea Brown in the know.

*sound of starter gun* Sign in, and get moving! Go find Heather's comments. Remember to comment on the blogs in a respectful manner, and then head back here and enter your unscrambled phrase!
