My Question For Maureen

Today, my family and I watched Mama Mia, and my mom is a big ABBA fan, and my dad just likes to sing during musicals. So, I was in the kitchen, and my parents and an aunt of mine came upstairs singing Dancing Queen. I asked them to stop.

They sang louder.

I begged them to stop the audio terrorism.

It wouldn't end.

So I went over to Maureen Johnson's blog, and she's doing this Live Blog thing, where she takes questions from the comments and gives a funny answer. Well, I posted one. I was the 60th or so to post. Look what I saw on her blog 10 minutes later:

QUESTION SEVEN, 11:35 PM

What should one do when confronted by loud parents who refuse to stop singing ABBA? When these parents cannot sing?


WHERE DO YOU LIVE? I WILL BE THERE IN TEN MINUTES.

My question was chosen! Isn't that so cool!!! (I know, I'm a nerd.)

It's always cool to have authors answer your questions, no matter what they're about. I plan to ask a few questions about writing at the Something Rotten discussion.

I think it's great when authors answer their readers questions. Plus it's a great way to connect with their readers.

COOL!!!!! That is so cool. Do you have any books of her's to sugjest?

Sorry I haven't commented in a while, my dad just wiped our computer clean, and now everything is gone. My writing (all of it, no hard copys made), my web sites that I book marked, my photos, all gone. Ugh.

I'm wishing you a late merry Christmas and a happy next year.

BookSnob: I recommend memory sticks for anything you plan on writing on the computer. I use them for all my books so I don't lose them. Good thing too, because the desktop computer is all wonked out right now and might die.

My deepest condolences for your lost writing.
