Happy wintry Monday morning!
That sentence seems about as congruent as saying, "Oh what a cute, cuddly piranha!"
Mondays stink and I vote that we end winter as soon as the Christmas lights go dark.
Soooo...while I work on the Shorter Winter/ Quicker Spring campaign, I invite you all to enjoy some hot posts for the HEALING SUMMER blog tour to warm you up.
And they are brought to you by this trifecta of female fun...

| Welcome ladies!!! While you write, your avatars can sing! |
The heavenly Celeste Holloway of
Words Done Write wants to know, "Should we tell the scaredy cats hiding out in bunkers that the world DIDN'T end and they can come out now?"
And the blogosphere's favorite redhead, Morgan Shamy ponders, "Who are the Seckmans?"
The redhead really is "out"...got an email from Morgan this morning and she's in the midst of revisions and taking a blog break. She'll be back later, so until then...send Morgan some good revision vibes and bests of luck!
This is the second week of the HEALING SUMMER blog tour. Be sure to check out all the
Tour Page. There is a list of all the stops and the prompts.
*Read them
*Pick a favorite
*Then vote in the comments
And while you're there, sign up for the $100 cash give away and the free books.

| I've got big things on my mind. |
I was asked by Megan Wille of One Word at a Time to do the "Next Big Thing" Meme.
And I will get to that after I try to explain the big (confusing) blog tour idea I have.
All right here's the plan:
(Please be patient with me. I don't do directions well. Shocking, but true.)
~Everyone who volunteered to host me in January (muchas gracias, by the way) will offer up a prompt. A word, a phrase, a question...whatever you want.
I will write up a guest post based on your prompt, send it to you, and you can post it any day in January.
Be sure to let me know the date...because...
I will add a page to my blog.
All of the links to host bloggers will be listed there.
I will then ask readers to pick their favorite post and the blogger who thunk up the post gets a $25 Amazon card.
And for all the readers who stop by the page...there will (oh dear Lord, please let technology be kind to me!!) be a rafflecopter set up for a $100 cash* give away.
*By cash I mean $100 however the winner wants it...certified check, gift card, sack of pennies**...winner's choice
**Sack of pennies will only be delivered in the 26155 zip code area
If you want in on the fun (please God, let this not be a nightmare!)... feel free to email me at eseckman(at)ymail(dot)com.
Now if this makes zero sense, I won't be AT ALL surprised, so shoot me an email or a comment and I'll do my dizzy blond best to 'splain things.
