Number 1: The talented E.J. Wesley, whose blog (The Open Vein) is both entertaining and inspirational and you should visit it, has given me this awesome award!!!
Number 2: Today Is National Donut Day!
Can you believe it? A (w)hole day devoted to that (w)holesome (NOT) confectionary delight, the donut.
Let us admire:
The traditional plain donut...
...the jelly donut...
...the glazed donut...
...the frosted donut...
... and the cider donut...
 |
| my personal favorite! |
Not to be confused with the cruller...
...the turnover...
or the cinnamon bun!
What, you may ask, does this have to do with writing?
Well, I'll tell you.
1. Donuts make an excellent writing snack, especially with coffee.
2. As writers, we often find our stories have a hole in the middle.
3. Given the amount of butt in chair time, our butts may begin to resemble the round shape of a donut if we do not get off them from time to time and take the dogs for a run :)
And you thought donuts had nothing to do with writing!
Please feel free to tell us all which is your favorite kind of donut (mine is the cider donut!) so we can see which is most popular! (And by "favorite" of course I mean which type of donut helps your writing most, and by "popular" of course I'm referring to how much it helps your writing so we can all benefit by trying it :))
Have a wonderful, donut-filled weekend everyone!
