There's some cool stuff going on in Sherri's world today. Thought I'd give a little linky love today so you can join in.
- Writtenwyrdd is having a contest on her blog to celebrate three years and a thousand posts. A thousand! Wha? You heard me. Here's her description of the prize: "I've got a bunch of hand-screened cards (black on cream) that I made years ago as part of my arts and crafts phase. The winner will get a couple dozen, each individually wrapped (a $50 value). They can be framed as well. I carved the originals in lino blocks and turned the prints into card designs. Various Celtic designs, fantasy designs and pagan designs." She's taking entries through next Friday, so go leave a comment to enter.
- Ian coined a term to describe when, as a writer, you get in your own way: Eating your earlobes. You'll have to go to his blog to get the whole story.
- A friend of mine had a great job interview today. I'm not naming names because we're being cautiously optimistic, but I wanted him to know I'm behind him!
- The thing I'm most excited about is coming from my buddy Marta. For as long as I've known her I've loved her art and wished I could afford to commission some to hang on every wall of my house. Now I'm going to have a little piece I can hold in my hands. A little while ago she had a contest on her blog, and I won an original copy of one of her books, bound by Marta herself, with original art included! She let me choose the book and everything, and now she's posted pictures of the art-making process here. It's fascinating and beautiful and exciting. Won't you go on over and see my prize and be jealous? She's really giving me a gift, and I'm not just talking about the prize. It's been a pleasure to know her.
Have a great weekend, y'all! I plan to.
Thanks for the linky love! :-*
ReplyDeleteCool stuff in Sherri's world because Sherri is cool. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your prize! :D
Hey, awesomeness on the contest win! Woo!
ReplyDeleteI have in no way mastered the art of bookbinding, but I'm making it with love and hope, really hope, that you will like it.
ReplyDeleteWell if it's made with love, how could I not?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, Sherri! Marta's art is so cool (I've been wanting some, too) so I'm glad you got a piece for yourself!
