We've Got a WINNER!!!

Last week the Life List Club celebrated 3 months ofexistence. To commemorate the occasion, my fellow life listers and I offered an exciting number of giveaways to our faithful followers/commenters.

My giveaway was an in-depth 2-chapter critique of your WIP. I will extend it by adding that you can change it for a guest spot of any topic/length/etc. on my blog OR taking part in my new SECRET project this month. I’ll let the winner choose which sounds best.

Party with the Life List Club. There's presents!

Hey! Where did all the boy hats go?!

Today we celebrate!

Well technically, we should do this every day to keep our skin glowing and grow younger instead of older... like Benjamin Button (though that was kind of creepy). But in case you only celebrate if there’s an occasion (which is ludicrous, shame on you), here’s a good reason for you to put on a party hat and stuff your face with cake. Remember, if you’re on a diet, this is your day off it. If you’re at work, take your lunch break and live a little. And if you’re depressed… well, don’t be.

Conditioning the Muse and Drooling Dogs

Muses come in many shapes and colours. Being an artist includes the ability to recognize a good Muse from a bad one. A Muse is almost never bad from the start, but it can grow weaker in time. On some days, the Muse sprinkles the magic fairy dust that makes you fly right into your brain cells (different Muses like different routes of administration), and if he or she are not properly trained, they will take leaves and go missing for long periods of time, sometimes without notice.

Basically, Muses can be flaky.
