What I'm tweeting about - SHILOH WALKER

23:03 Need a last minute gift for a hard-to-to-buy-for person?: wp.me/p2E96-11Y #
12:29 @mark_henry is it good? i’ve got it on DVD but haven’t watched it yet #
13:18 @mark_henry Will break it out soon, then. ;o) #
13:24 @ErrantDreams only way I like marshmallows is melted with rice krispies or toasted over a fire.@angelajames #
13:35 @MichellePillow well, now. doesn’t that make you feel all warm and fuzzy? #
13:36 @MichellePillow 🙁 how sad. #
13:37 @MichellePillow now stop reading the news. you are depressing me. #
13:38 @MichellePillow the divorce. That makes me feel all toasty and nice, yes? #
13:38 @MichellePillow but the drunk child-especially if the mom is being upfront about the story behind it? that breaks my heart. #
13:43 wanna know one way to guarantee I never buy anything from your ebay store? spam me. That guarantees I won’t buy. HATE spam #
13:46 @emeraldjaguar well, since you asked so nicely… :OP no. #
13:47 @IngelaHyatt i don’t watch the news if at all possible. #
13:51 @emeraldjaguar I’ll ditto that-people thru out history have been dumped out-truly successful people are those who move PAST their hardships #
13:52 @emeraldjaguar not those who harp on them. @McVane #
13:58 @McVane Dealing with experiences and trying to improve things are one thing #
13:58 @McVane but there are many, many, many people who just want to complain-they don’t want to move forward, they don’t want things to imrpove #
13:59 @McVane they don’t want others to learn from past mistakes-they are more content to just gripe about their miseries. #
14:01 @MichellePillow oh now she is just so sweet. I loved that. @DakotaCassidy @IngelaHyatt #
14:01 @McVane and if all one does is harp on the bad to the point that they are bitter-they aren’t making much of a life for themselves. #
14:02 @McVane and if they harp to the point of bitterness, then those around them start tuning them out-so the message is lost any way. #
14:03 @McVane it’s all about balance-has to be-things can be learned from the past but if you let the past color the present? You lose anyway #
14:04 @emeraldjaguar EXACTLY. @McVane #
14:10 @McVane but would you tell authors they shouldn’t write about deaf characters? And uh (sorry, I’m nosy) are you deaf? #
14:14 @McVane no, you didn’t say that. and no, I don’t thinkyou would. but i’m getting the impression that the guy emmy is talking about (cont) #
14:14 @McVane doesn’t want women writing about gay men. period. whether they try to get it right or whether they don’t care. #
14:14 @McVane writers are all about writing experiences that aren’t ‘theirs’… I’ve never killed a person, but I write about it all the time. #
14:15 @McVane right now, i’m writing a blind heroine-I’m trying to get it as factual as possible, but I expect I’ll make some errors. #
14:15 @McVane if writers only wrote the scope of their own experiences, we’d have some very, very boring books out there. #
14:16 @McVane and again, what I’m getting from @emeraldjaguar is that this guy thinks womenz shouldn’t write gay men cuz they ain’t gay men #
14:18 @McVane some do. some will. just like some idiots that write the medical romances bastardize the medical field to the point of idiocy. #
14:19 @McVane use a deaf character to make who more vulnerable? my blind heroine? #
14:22 @McVane nah. my blind heroine is paired up with a state cop on leave. #
14:23 okay-the DH is on overtime so i’m gonna make an early dinner…. off twitter for a while to cook. #
14:23 @McVane @emeraldjaguar thanks for lively discussions. ;o) #
15:25 @angelajames dunno if you can do lemon drop martinis but those are awesome. #
15:31 Saw this online…sounds so arrogant. "as a published writer myself, I know what it takes to be a good wr
iter" #
15:32 anybody else think that sounds arrogant? Readers know good writing-which, seriously, can be very subjective. #
15:32 being a published writer doesn’t automatically make anybody an authority on good writing. People. They kill me. Really. #
15:33 @angelajames oh, now that sounds awesome. very awesome. #
15:39 @emeraldjaguar *G* Gasp really????? you? not polite? ;o) #
15:40 @limecello what is ‘good’ writing for some isn’t always ‘good’ for others. certain books R like crack 2 some-others can’t stand them #
15:41 @limecello mechanics, yeah-that could be argued, but there’s a lot more to a good story than mechanics. #
15:41 @emeraldjaguar LMAO. Yes. you are a ray of southern sunshine… a sip of sweet tea, a mint julep…all wrapped up in one. #
15:43 RT @YasmineGalenorn: Unless they ask for it, guys do NOT give your wives boob job GCs: bit.ly/6C1Jvb May be the last gift you get her #
15:44 @limecello LMAO. I care more about whether or not I can enjoy it-lousy quality means I WON’T enjoy it… so mechanics do play into it. #
15:44 @limecello but for me-first and foremost-the story is going to be the most important. #
15:45 @StaciaKane beats me. something I saw on RT blog… I’ll post a link. #
15:46 the ‘I know good writing’ comment came from here. bit.ly/58Ntnr #
15:46 Read the comments. I haven’t read the author discussed in the comments, but it’s not about the author-it’s about one of the comments. #
15:47 Again… READ the COMMENTS… you’ll see where my original comment came from. #
15:48 @emeraldjaguar hmmm… maybe you’re a … what’s a Hawaiian flower? #
15:50 @limecello and I feel like a moron… *G* because I’ve no idea who that is. but oh well. ;o) #
15:50 @limecello I have strawberry wine and that makes me happy #
15:52 @StaciaKane LOL. That was sort of my take on it. #
15:52 O_O @caitmiller @KeriStevens #
16:01 @emeraldjaguar hibiscus. you’re a slice of hibiscus. assuming that’s a sweet flower. #
16:01 @limecello beats me. #
16:02 @cranberrytarts LOL. Hey, I’m a writer. I make up words all the time. And sometimes, my editors even let me keep them. #
16:08 FYI. I’m a mean mom. I take great pride in this. #
16:16 @ladyeclectic oh, i’m mean. I take pride in it. ;o) #
16:21 baby bratlet is doing yoga on Wii fit. #
16:21 wanna see something fun? it’s watching a 3 y.o. do yoga #
16:27 @emeraldjaguar sigh. you just likes to try and make me feel bad or something. i swear. #
16:28 i’m making Christmas cookies. I’ve made these before but the recipe went kinda ….wrong. The cookies look like mutants. #
16:28 but hopefully the mutant cookies will taste good. #
16:30 @emeraldjaguar ahhhhhhh…. #
16:31 @emeraldjaguar But then I’d have to defend myself for being a female. ;o) #
16:39 @emeraldjaguar eh, I like what I write. I’m good. #
16:39 okay, about to render the verdict on the mutant cookies. #
16:39 they are delicious. ugly as hell. but delicious #
16:41 @emeraldjaguar ttthpppttt…. I didn’t say I was GOOD at what I write. I said I LIKE what I write. I’m GOOD. :OP troublemaker #
16:42 @e_bookpushers of what? the cookies? seriously? #
16:47 @e_bookpushers LMAO. If you insist. tweetphoto.com/6859509 #
16:47 my mutant cookies are basically THIS recipe…which I’ve made a million times…and they’ve never turned out this ugly. bit.ly/5SDC0v #
16:47 but they still taste awesome. #
16:48 @marjoriemliu ooooohhhh… i like your new twitter pic…. you back home? #
16:50 @e_bookpushers I would never cook for a gift. gift certificates are so much easier. #
16:51 @rebyj that is so wrong. #
16:56 @marjoriemliu 13 hours. shudder. I tremble in symapthy. had a 9 hour from Alaska last year. WITH a toddler. #
16:58 @rebyj tramp #
16:58 just to make sure I was fair. rechecked mutant cookies. second batch tasted as awesome as first. #
17:00 @Wildcatcdc nope… somebody on the blog at the RT blog. Was kind of odd. #
17:00 @e_bookpushers well, they are also still very, very ugly. #
17:01 Maybe the third batch will be more athestically appealing….@e_bookpushers #
17:01 @e_bookpushers oh, they do. chocolate. peppermient. sugar cookie. what’s not to love? #
17:03 @Alessia_Brio but one cookie from each batch should suffice. I mean, I’m watching my caloric intake here. #
17:05 @DakotaCassidy well….of course. I mean, i’d hate to feed my kids nasty cookies…. #
17:06 @limecello go look here. bit.ly/5AwWrg #
17:09 random fact about me: if you leave me a voice mail and I don’t know you? I’ll delete it without listening. Hate voicemail. Hate telehphones #
17:12 @marjoriemliu interesting. Let’s be honest. It was TERRIFYING. BEYOND. I openly admit… i resorted to benadryl. #
17:15 Yikes. No wonder some kids freak about seeing Santa. RT @ColleenLindsay: .@DonLinn OMG! That’s FABULOUS! bit.ly/7pnNxd #
17:19 Starting to handle the e-ARCS for BROKEN. Eek. Is already time for that? Sigh. I live months in the future. #
17:21 @katiebabs um… a hello kitty crucifix? seriously? #
17:24 @IngelaHyatt LOL. Eh, that comment kind of raised my eyebrows. I see where you’re coming from. #
17:24 @katiebabs heloo kitty. sheesh #
17:25 @emeraldjaguar or salespeople. I mean…. drug reps…. HELLO? #
17:26 @michellej I moved my blog from blogger to wordpress… most of it was automated, I think…fairly easy. luv wordpress. #
17:28 @trelaina eh, hard copies are all but nil. less than 8 so unless you wanna move to the dig age… :(. #
17:28 @trelaina the pub is likely moving away from print ARCs for trades, so something you might wanna think about. 🙁 #
17:55 @katiebabs I think it’s going to happen overall with all of them. but i’m not getting ANY traditionally printed ARCs for Broken- #
17:56 @katiebabs trade paperback with Berkley. Last year, I did get them for the prequel, FRAGILE #
17:57 @emeraldjaguar I got them for Hunter’s Need, mass market. Not getting them for BROKEN, trade paperback. #
17:58 @emeraldjaguar bigger names will likely still get traditional ARCs. But I bet as time goes by, midlist and lower? Probably not. #
18:47 @katiebabs I’ll have you know, I did my own e-ARC. Shoul;d be just one page on one. :OP #
18:50 Ok. Time for Christmas party at church. Fortunately, there is no need to share the mutant Christmas cookies…. #
18:50 ciao, twitter world…. #
20:49 woo hoo! you can track santa on twitter @noradsanta #
20:50 back from the party at church… had to call it quits early-youngest rotten kept trying to open presents NOT her own. #
20:50 Had my first taste of real wassail though. yummy. very yummy. #
20:50 tasted like…well… Christmas. Sweet, spicy #
21:03 dunno if I’m in a reading funk or what. tried four different books that had been on my TBR stack yesterday. #
21:03 all relegated to donation pile. Should I try another today or not? hmmmmmm…. #
21:07 @flchen1 the membership could reach into the thousands. #
21:07 i am craving french fries. #
21:11 @RachaelfromNJ well. I don’t have a pile. I have a bookcase. Liike… uh…. four+ shelves of unread books. at the minimum. O_O #
21:18 tempted to start doing a re-read of cat & bones but then I’d get
depressed by how long I have to wait before next one by @Jeaniene_Frost #
21:18 @rebyj i have some very ugly, very tasty mutant cookies. #
21:18 @StaciaKane um. that sounds so wrong. #
21:19 @RachaelfromNJ trying to decide which one that might be though. #
21:19 @RachaelfromNJ of course, part of the problem-am on new RX for headaches and it’s killing my focus. seriously #
21:25 @rebyj veyr ugly cookies. lemme find the twit pic #
21:26 RT: @e_bookpushers LMAO. If you insist. tweetphoto.com/6859509 #
21:26 @rebyj @e_bookpushers LMAO. If you insist. tweetphoto.com/6859509 #
21:27 @rebyj there. mutant cookies. veri ugly #
21:28 @nightsmusic my kids don’t wanna let go of any of the mutant cookies. And I am their slave. #
21:28 @rr4r well… I’m not a fruit cake eater. If God brings it back, His other faithful followers can have my share. #
21:29 @rebyj *G* They are good though. ghiradelli chocolate, candy canes and sugar cookie dough. *G* #
21:30 @nightsmusic I’ll have you know I loved them plenty. All the way down to my chubby tummy. @rebyj #
21:30 @StaciaKane then they musta been obnoxious fumes, too. 😉 #
21:37 Mutant cookies: wp.me/p2E96-12f #
21:38 @nightsmusic @rebyj I posted the mutant cookie recipe to my blog. make your own. #
21:42 @JulesBennett am jealous. 🙁 can’t talk my oldest into it. and my youngest? #
21:42 @JulesBennett would be wasted $$$ as she won’t sit still long enough for the freaking commerical. #
21:42 @nightsmusic @rebyj *G* enjoy #
22:01 I have a karma bubble bar and I’m not afraid to use it. bit.ly/7cnSsr (and if you’ve ever had one, you wouldn’t be afraid either) #
22:01 @laurendane should I drink a glass of wine for you? #
