Freaky Friday - Twilight, Kardashians, and Other News from the Land of Odd
It's Friday, and you know what that means!
You don't?
Oh, right ... because I haven't told you my Brilliant Blogging plan. See, when I decided to blog regularly, I realized something startling: I'm boring. My life is dull. Snooze-worthy. I'm putting myself to sleep writing this, in fact.
So I did what I always do when I have a problem. I made a list! Wheeee! (Told you I was boring.)
Spontaneity is overrated (and really hard to spell). If you know about my issues with prime numbers then you'll know how much I enjoy orderliness. And how badly I need therapy.
Anyhoo ... I thought I'd try to structure my blog using the following topics:
- Movie-star Mondays - Actors we love and the shows in which we adore them.
- I'm-a-Tool Tuesdays - The craft of writing/the business of publishing.
- Wild and Woolly Web Wednesdays - Featuring wonderful web sites.
- Thumpin' Thursdays - All things music. But I'll try not to get too street, yo.
- Freaky Fridays - Anything weird, funny, or funky.
I don't know about you, but I'm totally jazzed about this. I think it's the alliteration. Does it to me every time. That said ...
It's Friday, and you know what that means! Time to get our freak on! Allow me to tickle your funny bone and then possibly make you vomit.
Today's snort-fest was brought to my attention by the lovely Rebecca, whom I adore (and not just because she pimped my Facebook "Author" page and brought me lots of new Likes). But also because she knows quality writing when see reads it. Obviously.
Here is an Honest Movie Trailer for the wonderfully mockable Twilight:
"The romance of a lifetime ... expressed entirely in stares." These people are brilliant. I snorted my tea at the ketchup comment. And the cast of characters.
Speaking of things that become enormously popular despite a suspicious absence of talent ...
The Jenner sisters (from 'Kardashians' fame) are writing a novel. Yay! Because it's totally easy to write a book and like, every 14-year old should totally do it. The good news? They haven't even finished, and it already has a publisher. That's right, an imprint of Simon & Schuster will publish the as-yet-untitled book next summer. The better news? According to E!, it "could be the first in a possible series."
In other news ... a piece of my writer's soul just died.
Hope y'all have a fabulous Friday and a wicked-cool weekend.
