Hello my name is…Blog Hop

my name is

 

We’re ringing in the New Year with lots of giveaways! And by sharing some fun and wacky facts about ourselves. There’s a new giveaway at each stop so be sure to visit them all! (link at bottom of this post)

5 Quirky Things about me:

1) I love playing video games – dungeon crawler/ hack-n-slash. But with a full time job, family, and my writing, I haven’t had much time to play 😦

2) I have a chocolate/ sugar addiction. Like I can turn away junk food until someone brings desserts – but I can’t stand Milky Way candy bars.

3) I usually repeat things/stories aloud to my husband, family, and friends three times and use the same verbiage. Don’t know why and I don’t realize I’m doing it until someone responds, “you’ve told me this before.”

4) Even though I love reading, I can’t re-read another author’s book. I’ve tried even re-reading my favorites and I just loose interest because I already know the story.

5) I’m not afraid of mice, spiders (unless poisonous), snakes (unless poisonous), tame rats, gerbils or hamsters. However, I hate roaches and wasps – and sharks

And now time for a Giveaway:

Comment below on your favorite or not so favorite thing (animal, quirky trait, etc.) and be entered to win an ebook copy of the following:

Secrets can’t be hidden forever.

  1. My favorite thing ever is my dog. She’s my best friend.

    1. Mai,
      Our pets are our family, but they’ll never let you down. Does she curl up with you when you read?

  2. Hi I love to read and have since I was younger, my favorite books to read are romance, paranormal. Mostly Werewolves, ah I’m lying I love anything paranormal. I love dogs, don’t like snakes (freak me out), bugs ( hate/ love relationship), I love to snack on sweets while reading and glass of wine by my side, I have a couple of series that I can re-read over again and be surprise what is to come in the book even though I have read it.

    1. Elizabeth,
      I wish I could enjoy books over and over, so I even you that. Since you really like Werewolves, have you tried TF Walsh? Her prequel, Cloaked, is coming out soon. She has Cloaked in Fur already out and Cloaked in Secret coming out in few months. Oh, and I’m right there with you on the wine. Thanks for coming by.

  3. I understand what you mean about re-reading books. It has to be really good for me to re-read. My favorite color is purple in all shades. I swear if something has purple in it, no matter how hideous it would be in a different color, I’ll like it. By the way, nice cover (I mean it, but the purple helps)

    1. Hmmm…might have to add some purple to more of my covers 🙂
      Thanks for stopping by.

  4. not a fan of pets shedding fur

  6. “Comment below on your favorite or not so favorite thing (animal, quirky trait, etc.)…”
    I used to really enjoy pyrography (burning patterns into wood), but I didn’t get to do much of it because my house mates complained about the smell.

  14. My favorite animal are sharks:0

    1. Josy,

      My oldest son loves sharks too. Wish I’d taken a video camera with me to seaworld when he was nine. He went up to the shark exhibit, soon all the sharks in the whole tank came to where he was standing, then all the people circled around my son (cause that’s where all the sharks were). When my son left, all the sharks swam away. I’ve never seen anything like it.
      Thanks for coming by.

  15. My Favorite animal is a cat . I just love them !

    1. Patty,
      I love cats too. They don’t require walking and great to snuggle on my lap while I read or write 🙂
      Thanks for stopping by.

  16. I love to read romance, and drink sweet ice tea.

    1. Sounds good. How sweet is your iced tea? My mom made it so sweet it was almost like syrup after it stayed in the fridge overnight and was so good.
      Thanks for stopping by.
