Awards - Part Two

So, yesterday I wrote a REALLY long blog post giving out the Sunshine Award which I received from Tobi Summers and McKenzie McCann. When I woke up this morning, the post had vanished. This makes for a very unhappy Kyra!



Even though my post disappeared somewhere in cyberspace, I wanted to show it off again! As it happens, I got given the award again, plus another award by the lovely Cassie (thank you!), so what I'm going to do is give both awards out now, just in case you missed them yesterday!

Accepting the Sunshine Award means you have to answer the following questions:
  1. Favorite Color?
  2. Favorite Animal? .
  3. Favorite Number?
  4. Favorite (non-alcoholic) drink?
  5. Facebook or Twitter? 
  6. My passion? 
  7. Getting or Giving presents?
  8. Favorite pattern? 
  9. Favorite day of the week?
  10. Favorite flower?   
Apologies if you missed my answers - I hate re-creating things! :p

The other award I received was this:


I really like this one a lot! :D  So I am now going to pass BOTH awards on to the following people:

Clare Dugmore
Elizabeth Seckman
Angela Cothran
Kelley Lynn
Rachel Schieffelbein

I also gave a reminder about the WIP: The Movie blogfest, which is just a week away! More details can be found here. 

Finally, I remembered the thing I was supposed to share yesterday. My goal for March. It's pretty simple (well, in theory lol!). I want to finish editing my WIP, ready to share with my CP. It's going slowly, and giving myself a deadline should help a lot! 

P.S If this post disappears too, I might just give up lol!

    It posted yesterday, because it came up in my reader. But when I went to read it it wasn't there. :(

    But now here it is! Thanks so much Kyra!

    Sometimes this has happened to me because the post was a draft, and it had a really old date when I first made it a draft...so when I published it, it appeared way in the past. Not sure if this happened to you? I don't think it happens on the new blogger platform, so if you're on that one then this clearly isn't your problem. But I thought I'd share just in case ;)

    Congrats on the awards anyway!

      Lol, no my post actually went live at the right time, and even had comments on it but when I woke up in the morning, it was all gone. :( And yes, I am on the new platform which makes it even more frustrating lol!

IWSG: Performance anxiety

Welcome to the August edition of IWSG, hosted by the amazing Alex J.Cavanaugh ! So, as most of you know by now - because I haven't shut up about it LOL - my first novel, Game On, has been released. The blog tour officially starts next week (YAY!) but I find myself becoming increasingly nervous. A blog tour not only highlights my book, but me. What if people don't like me? What if my guest posts suck, and everyone thinks I'm boring? If I can't engage people in 300 words on a blog, they probably aren't going to pick up my book. And then there's the "what happens next" question. I plan to make Game On into a series, which feels a bit arrogant of me. I don't know how many people are going to like the first book, should I really be planning to keep the series going? So far, Game On has actually been incredibly well received. I've had great reviews, so maybe I shouldn't worry about people not liking it, but what if Book Two isn't as goo

First Fight/First Kiss Blogfest

Yay, it's blogfest time! Many thanks to Danielle and Jackie for hosting! Here are the details: Share your 1 st FIGHT and 1 st KISS scenes in your MS’s or WIP’s. Crack open your current project or dive back into an old one. We want to feel what your characters feel. From the sting of their first fist-to-the-face to the tingling taste of their first kiss. Today is First Fight day, and I wanted to bring you a small excerpt from my NaNo novel which centres around Jesse Shaw, one of the characters from Game On. It's a bit rough, and a bit vague - mainly because I wrote it quickly, Jesse's voice still needs work, and this fight in full would be packed with spoilers, but hopefully it gives enough info to make sense!   Just to clear up a small thing - Georgia is Isabelle's twin sister. :)   ** “Izzy,” I said. “You know the right thing to do.” Isabelle looked down at me with those big brown eyes, and my insides twisted with guilt. Right away, I realised

IWSG: Am I doing it right? And does anyone care?

Happy IWSG Day! This genius idea created by Alex J. Cavanaugh is a place for all of us insecure writers to gather together to talk about our worries, and cheer each other on. Check out the full list of participants here ! Think right now about your favourite writers. How do you feel when you know they have a new book being released? It's usually something like, "HURRY UP, I CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE!" right? And also, think about when one of your super talented blog buddies announces they've got a book coming out soon. That is even more exciting because it's someone you know, someone you may have seen struggling to reach their goal of publication. Someone you've seen go through the rough times, and have finally made it to where they want to be. I can tell you that when Jolene Perry, or Nyrae Dawn announce a book release - I bounce up and down like a crazy person! These two awesome ladies are writers I absolutely adore for their ability to write so natural
