Mark Koopmans has to be the best sport in the blogosphere. Mark made the mistake of calling me his cyber-sister due to our shared lack of sensibilities. What a guy, right? To thank him, I have tortured him relentlessly, like any good sibling would ;)
Mark is hosting the Got Green Blogfest 2.0, this Friday~ March 15.
Hurry on over...sign up...write up a post that makes Mark's life difficult, er, I mean enjoyable!
I'm also throwing my two cents in on best movies by adding my name to the Top 10 Movie Countdown! Blogfest. Hosted by Ninja Captain, Alex Cavanaugh on the 18th. Should be fun to see which movie wins. (Think the Oscars were impressive? Wait until you read these lists!)
And if you're a new writer, an old new writer, or just an old writer who has been trying to pound out words all alone from whatever rock you are living under...you need a beta.
Easier said than done?
Nope.
Join the ladies of Falling for Fiction! They are hosting a Beta (first reader)/ CP (critique partner) mixer!
It's the Matchelor and your next best friend is a blog hop away!

And if you're a blogger who wants to meet more bloggers...maybe some who are giving up their life under the rocks for life among humans (writers are human!)~ then you will want to check out DL Hammons blogfest!
Wow, there's a lot going on in March. I'm doing a couple - I'd better go and check which ones!
ReplyDeleteLOL. This smart lady once told me to cut and paste the blog address and save it to drafts. What a life saver!
DeleteWhen will you sleep?
ReplyDeleteMidnight-7:00 Monday through Friday. Sleep in on the week ends. ;)
DeleteThanks for mentioning my blogfest! Signed up for the Blitz as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to see what the best movies will be! Should be an interesting list. :)
DeleteOh my...what fun. Lots of stuff coming up this month and next...gonna be busy :)
ReplyDeleteIt's good to be busy...houses don't need cleaned, do they?
DeleteNever heard of the last one. Checking it out now. I'm already in the first two, nice of you share these bloghops with others.
ReplyDeleteI know I have a hard time keeping up with all the good stuff going on and I figured there were others out there like me!
DeleteSo much happening, have to see what I can fit in!
ReplyDeleteSo little time, huh Suzanne?
DeleteWow, the blogosphere is choc-full of interesting blog hops!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing all these links!
My pleasure!
DeleteMarch blog madness! I'll keep an eye out for these. So much stuff going on!
ReplyDeleteEnough to keep you hopping...double puns...yes, I am that sad!
DeleteThe "Matchelor" ha! Great idea. I'll see you at the Movie Fest for sure.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see all the choices! I say we keep score and give out a blogger award!
DeleteWow, lots of hops in March. I'll have to watch from the sidelines I think. Thanks for the FFF shout out. ;0)
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure Jenny! Finding a beta/CP is so crucial. You guys are wonderful to offer the help!
DeleteI wish I could join these, but I already have blog plans. I look forward to the posts, though.
ReplyDeleteI have seen other interesting ones, but you're right, you have to have some limits!
DeleteBusy lady!!! I'm hop free at the moment, just can't commit to anything right now. I miss them though!
ReplyDeleteSince you're still recovering from that illness, it's best you take it easy!
DeleteYou is 'da woman! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm signed up for Marks! I'm so pathetic at hops these days, but I can't miss out on that one! And I'm excited for the Matchelor. Hope we can make some great connections. :)
I'll see you at Mark's!
DeleteSo much going on in March! And then there will be April and the challenge. Wowsers.
ReplyDeleteI wussed out of the April challenge. That's for the better coordinated than me! Maybe next year. :)
DeleteLooks like you're in for some blog time. I love blog hops, and I think I'm going to sign up for Mark's. I somehow didn't know about Alex's (and I'm usually so good about getting my news from his blog!), but movies are near and dear to my heart.
ReplyDeleteHop on over and sign up. (No, I don't ever tire of tacky puns!)
DeleteI'm doing Got Green and The Matchelor. :)
ReplyDeleteBoth will be a lot of fun! See you there. :)
DeleteGirrrrrl, seems like you've been around the block. I mean, to check out the goods. Oops, that sounds wrong, too. Ok, let's try again, you sure know a lot about stuff. Yes! Hahaha... ill be signing up for the majority, in my pink flannel jammies with bedazzle on the rear.
ReplyDeleteI can't find my bedazzler...you wouldn't be guilty of sneaking round my block and taking it would you?
DeleteMaybe
DeleteMaybe

ReplyDeleteLots of good stuff going on! I need to see what I can whip up for the Got Green fest, not easy though when you're French/Italian . . . :D
ReplyDeleteI know. This mutt doesn't have a drop of Irish!
DeleteAlex's blogfest sounds like fun! I look forward to seeing your top 10. Knowing you, it'll be GOOD!
ReplyDeleteI can't decide if I want to go with the predictable or the surprise list of sleepers :)
DeleteI signed up for the Blog Blitz and Alex's blogfest.
ReplyDeleteThey ought to be fun!
DeleteHey Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteOh my, blog hops, blogfests, yikes! I know it's such a great way to accumulate followers, I mean to rejoice in the sharing, caring ethos of the blogging community. Strangely enough, when I suggested several different blog hops or fests or whatever, they never came to fruition.
Seriously, all the best with them all and have fun. One of my um blogfests was the following. Sadly, it never happened....
The "Groundblog Day" blogfest : Wouldn't it be great for a blogfest? This would be where we repeat the same paragraph, over and over again. Yes indeed, a paragraph that repeats over and over and over...If you get what I mean?

I think it's a rather fun idea! You should go for it.
DeleteI think it's a rather fun idea! You should go for it.

See, even I could get into it!!
evil fun temptations! i cannot do them all and i feel bad to leave some out, but time leaves me no choice!
ReplyDeletelooking forward to making you over! will send email tonight!
I'm so excited Tara!! Anticipation is killing me.
DeleteSo many great fests! I'm doing Alex's but I have to hold off on any others since I"m doing A-Z. Plus getting ready to pound out a first draft of a new story and you know what a time-suck that is.
ReplyDeleteA-Z is plenty! You guys who do it are real blog heroes!
DeleteWith all the work involved in co-hosting A to Z, I'm not sure I have the energy for much else.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even have the energy to participate in the A-Z challenge much less host it! Rest up!
DeleteBusy, busy, busy. Then AtoZ is next month. After Alex's, I'm taking a rest until April, then will taper off some in May. Can't wait until then. :)
ReplyDeleteBut we're happiest when we're busy, right?
DeleteWow, lots of blog hops going down! I don't know if I can keep up! :)
ReplyDeleteI understand. I get that anxious feeling every now and then knowing I will forget something!
DeleteWow! There is a lot going on. Have fun with all of them.
ReplyDeleteLOL,
ReplyDeleteIt's OK, Sis, I have a long memory :)
Thanks for the mention and I am sooo taking a blog break - until May :)
I love your new banner, Liz! Absolutely *LOVE* it! Tara did an awesome job! :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the Movie Countdown on Monday! That awesome Ninja Captain Alex!
Crud, woman! I'll ready the straight-jacket. That way, when you lose your mind, it'll be available at a seconds notice! I may need one too. I didn't bite off as much as you did, but I got a fair share of the evil pie. I was up until 3:00 a.m., working on the top 10 countdown and tinkered w/it more today. Mind you, I still didn't get the stupid video clips place where I wanted them. While in draft mode, everything looks swell, but click over to preview mode, the idiot things are nowhere close to where I put them. Finally I accepted defeat and decided it'll be good enough. MY BRAIN CAN'T TAKE ANYMORE!!!! Okay, deep breaths, lol. Now that it's all over, I'm excited about Monday. I can't wait to see everybody's picks. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, just looking at the list makes me antsy! I have to finish this WIP I've been working on since last winter. And I'm only at 61Ks. Darn, or I would sign up for everything. Have fun.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds as if you will be very busy! Thanks for posting all of the different blogfests.

ReplyDeleteSounds fun!
These blog hops sound awesome!
