Paying it Forward!

Cool stuff and big announcement today!

Don’t forget the next posting of Insecure Writer’s Support Group is Wednesday October 5. If you haven’t signed up to participate in this awesome monthly event, click on the tab below my blog header for details.

The very beautiful and talented Elizabeth Mueller is hosting a blogfest to celebrate the release of her first novel! “I'd love to christen Darkspell by brewing up an online "If I had all the magic in the world, I'd ..." spookfesta. On Halloween day, share with me what you'd do if you discovered that you had all the magic in the world at your fingertips.”

Oh, and did anyone see the comments on Blastr about Terra Nova? The good, the bad, and the funny! My favorite was:
“I’m watching Terra Nova on Tivo delay. Someone let me know if Fox cancels it before it ends.”

Now for the big announcement!

This is the brainchild of Matthew at the QQQE. I’m helping with this awesome blogfest.(Okay, I just made the button for it.)

Pay it Forward! October 14, 2011 The idea is to introduce all of us to everyone else. We want this to be easy - meet and follow as many other bloggers as you like. In your post, we would like you to please list, describe, and link to three blogs that you enjoy reading and know that others would enjoy as well. And what’s cool, is this can be part of your regular Friday blogging.

Visit those who’s signed up. Visit those they recommend! If you don’t have time to comment, just follow. Take the weekend to go through the list. You might find some really cool blogs out there, just like you did during the first post of the Insecure Writer’s Support Group or last April during the A to Z Challenge. (Or during any of my odd blogfests. Really, I am a writer and an author! Just a little movie obsessed…)

Now, who’s with us???

And did you watch Tucker & Dale vs. Evil Wednesday night? (It was fun and a really good movie. Very gory, so be prepared.) Seeing it this weekend? Seeing anything? Back of your eyelids perhaps…?

    So you didn't like Terra Nova? I was planning to watch that. Both blogfests sound really cool and easy. I signed up. Honestly, I haven't been watching much TV lately...except there's a new series "Ringer" that I'm actually enjoying. Have a good one. :)Looking forward to Wednesday!

    Alex I would love to take part i "Pay It Forward" but to be perfectly honest don't know how to link with anyone, when it comes to anything like that I'm like that child on the slide except that kids nowadays know more about computers than me,

    Have a good day.

    It seems weird that I ended up third on the list. Even at like 6:15 AM I couldn't get here fast enough. Oh well, it's kind of funny.

    I also love how you designed the button with a cash motif. Very clever, Alex!

    Yvonne, I can show you! I'll email you later.

    Matthew, sorry! Posts go live at six and Laila is always the first one here.

    Cool blogfest! I didn't see Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, but I finally watched Trollhunter last night. It was amusing. It was done Blair Witch style except you got to see the trolls in wonderful clarity. The trolls were pretty awesome. Where do a bunch of kids get a better budget than SyFy?

    Have a great weekend!

    I liked Terra Nova & am willing to stick it out for a month, if it makes it that far. It has an Avatar meets Jurassic Park feel with a little Lost thrown in.

    I signed up for your blogfest. You always throw the best parties, Alex! I can't wait to make some connections.

    Great blog fest idea Matthew has. I signed up and can't wait.

    I think I'm the only one who did not tune in for Terra Nova. Just does not appeal to me at all. I'm anxiously awaiting the return of The Walking Dead on Oct. 16. This weekend is edits and concert. Christian Kane is playing Joe's Bar. He's a country act and I don't know how I got hogtied into this, but I intend to have lots of fun.

    George, I was surprised by the 'sweet' element to it.

    Clarissa, no worries.

    Christine, knew you'd like it. And that is a very good question.

    Talli, that's great! I figured this one is short enough, you can still post about something else as well.

    Charles, that's a fair description.

    Lynn, you'll be glad you did!

    LG, that would be totally stunning.

    Rusty, that's a good idea.

    Jeffrey, that's because you are in control!

    It is weekend and I am trying my best to watch a movie on DVD or in HBO but this time, while the storm was busy pounding on my rooftop, I got the chance to watch an old movie titled "StepMom"...watching it alone in my comfort zone made me too emotional, tears, tears, tears...oh gosh, i haven't had a good cry for quite a long time now, and this movie did me good...plus...I guess it is really hard to be a stepmom huh!

    Old or new movies, if they have feel-good story lines, I would'nt have second thoughts watching them even when I am alone :)

    Stephen, I know you have a challenge with that new blog. And if you've seen How to Train Your Dragon, you've seen a story similar to Dolphin Tales.

    Hey Julie - welcome!!!

    Ruby, I'm sorry if I've missed your posts - I never anticipated all of this!!!

    Isis, glad you're on board. I read one great review of Terra Nova and felt guilty, but no more.

    Wow, this week's Medieval Mondays post was on the Five best medieval history twitter feeds, so it's a weird coincidence that you're doing this.
    I'll be sure to join in on the fun. Picking only three blogs is going to be tough.

    Okay, this may be a dumb question but are we supposed to link to 3 blogs from the list or any 3 blogs that we like?

    Pay it forward is my all time favorite saying. I'll pay for someone's coffee behind me in Starbucks drive thru, try to smile at people who look like they are having a bad day, etc... I'm a huge fan of this so I HAD to sign up. Thanks for such an amazing blog hop idea!

    Pay it Forward - awesome idea! I'm in! And I'm giving Terra Nova a chance...it might have potential. But, I'm with you - just didn't grab me from the start. I'm sort of looking forward to American Horror Story this week ~ you?

    I signed up for the blogfest a few days ago but now I don't see my blog listed. I tried to refresh and now I can't even see the list anymore. Did you remove the list?

    Phew! I almost missed it! Thanks to A Daft Scots Lass for stopping by and giving me the heads up!

    She stopped by my side-blog Join-Something! which is exactly what the site is for, sharing of blog events! Unfortunately, I've been lax in updating it...

    awesome idea! And, I watch Terra Nova and have liked it, but they need to up the ante and get rid of some of those cliche storylines.

    Yay for the Pay It Forward Blogfest! Can't wait.

    Congratulations to Elizabeth Mueller on her new release.

    As for Terra Nova... erm, I feel like such a dork. I've never watched it (*hangs head in shame*)

    I didn't see Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, but I finally watched Trollhunter last night vimax canada . It was amusing. It was done Blair Witch style except you got to see the trolls in wonderful clarity...!!
