FRIDAY FAVORITES

FRIDAY FAVORITE #1: AUTHOR FRENDS

Only one writer responded to my call for followers books, but I'm happy to post the totally *wow* cover of Nebula's Music by Aubrie Dionne from Lyrical Press. From Aubrie's website:

When the cyborg Nebula plays the piano she experiences memories from a time before her creation. These memories…which involve a captive rebel fighter being held on their ship…bring with them complex human feelings and awaken a desire for her to discover her origins.

If you're not a follower of Aubrie's blog, please visit her here. You'll be glad you did. I love her posts on writing, flute playing, teaching and life.



FRIDAY FAVORITE #2: CANDY

Lucinda asked yesterday what my fav confection was, since I didn't like chocolate. The answer is, I love candy, almost all candy. So instead of a favorite, I'm giving you the top five.
  1. SPREE


  2. LIK-A-STIK STICKS


  3. GUMMIE PEACHES, FROGS & APPLES


  4. ORANGE TIC TACS


  5. NERDS (including Nerd Rope)

Please play! What's your favorite candy?

BONUS BREAKING NEWS: Head over to agent Mark McVeigh's blog. He's giving away 15 minute phone chats to anyone who can get 10 authors to join. More importantly, he'll be posting great things like giveaways, videos and interviews with the rich and famous (well, we are talking writers so maybe just 'famous'). Check it out here.

  2. Oo DL, I like Heath bars too! I scrape all the chocolate off and they're great. Do you ever sprinkle them over ice cream?

  3. Thanks so much for posting this! Lyrical Press does a wonderful job on their covers, I'm so lucky! And I love candy, especially nerds and orange tic tacs!

  4. You're welcome Aubrie! And it's nice to know, in addition to both playing the flute, we both like tic tacs and nerds.

  5. My primary sugar kryptonite is Little Debbie Nutty Bars- chocolate-covered peanut butter wafer bars.

    As far as actually CANDY, I'm a big Reeses fan. Peanut butter and chocolate gets me every time.

    Do you want me to be one of your ten followers on the Mark McVeigh thing? Cause I totally will.

  7. I wish I could have responded to your call for follower books - maybe next time. My favorite candy is probably also Heath bars but WITH the chocolate!

  8. My fav. candy is currently KitKat. I don't know why. Although my sister sends me these "Snicker Crunchers" from overseas and those are amazing. It would be like if a Snickers and a Whatchamacalit got together and had a delicious baby. Wait, that sounds kind of cannabalistic.
