Aar, Mateys...Ahoy!

I signed up for the Buccaneer Blogfest and then realized I'd be at camp for the first week of posts. So here I am writing my first post days before it will go live. I didn't want to slack off before the ship even left port!

The first post is supposed to be about me. Well, I've written a lot of stuff about me. It's one of my favorite topics. Well, no, not really, but it's the subject I know the most about, so I tend to default to writing about myself on this blog. If you want an intro to me, please read the About Me and FAQ sections. There's a lot of stuff there that will explain who I am.

Sorry this post is kind of lacking in detail, but since I'm not here to see if there were more specific instructions or advice for this post, I hope this will cover most anything anyone wants to know.

If you have any questions about me, and are patient enough to wait until the weekend to get answers, please feel free to ask. I like answering questions! Hey, Jeopardy! champ here! Then again, I suppose that means I prefer questioning answers, rather than answering questions. I'll try to phrase my replies in the form of a question.

Thanks for playing!

  4. Oh my god, your FAQ was hilarious! I love "Mittens of Sorcery." *BRB laughing forever*. Me and Hubby make up silly names for our kids too, oldest was BurlyBug for the first three years of his life.

    I'm following you, because I cannot wait to get to know more about you and your writing.

  14. I have to reply to the nicknames thing on your FAQ page. And since I already feel like I know you, its something we should already know about each other - I too love nicknames.

    My daughter's name is Faith Isabella, and we still call her Princess Bella. She's rules the land, so it makes sense.

    The great dane's name is Bronco. We call him Dumbledore. Go figure.

    The chihuahua's name is Lola, but she is Lolly, Lala, Lollygirl, and whatever other random thing that flies out of my mouth at any given moment. I'm pretty sure she just responds to how happy my voice is whenever I see her and has no idea what her name is. My mom calls her Lola Macaroni.

    My mom's dog's name is Haylee. We call her Doodlebug. Or Doodalicious.

    Are you shaking your head at me yet?

    I've always been Rosebud (Bud) or Skeet, as far as my mom is concerned ... and I still answer to both. :-)

  15. I am a new follower from the Buccaneer Blogfest. I think it is great that you took the time to post your writing assignment because you would not be here. I am more of a slacker- I was out of town so I am just now joining the party.

    Nice to meet you.
