I created this blog to share positive, upbeat information. I only write reviews for books I love and feel good about recommending. I also enjoy sharing my writing/publishing learning experiences with other writers. I'd love to hear from you. Please use the comments link on each blog post to share your own views and experiences.
The general schedule is reviews on Monday, writing tips on Wednesday, pot luck on Friday.

National Humor Month
April is National Humor Month! So, heard any good (G-rated) jokes lately? Read any books that made you laugh? Want to recommend any funny websites or blogs? Use the comments like below to share.
Did you hear the one about the three ducks and an anteater?
When I lived in California, I had a neighbor who greated me every day with the opening of a joke. He usually forgot the middle part, though. He had the opening and the punch line. We'd work together to try and figure out the missing part.
No, I'm not terribly good at remembering jokes. Maybe I should start a file. I get jokes sent to me and they make me laugh, but then I forget them. That's it. I need a Humor folder on my computer.
There was a little boy named Johnny who used to hang out at the local corner market. The owner didn't know what Johnny's problem was, but the other boys would constantly tease him. They would always comment that he was two bricks shy of a load, or two pickles short of a barrel. To prove it, sometimes they would offer Johnny his choice between a nickel and a dime, Johnny would always take the nickel -- they said, because it was bigger. One day, after Johnny grabbed the nickel, the store owner took him aside and said, "Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. They think you don't know that the dime is worth more than the nickel. Are you grabbing the nickel because it's bigger, or what?" Johnny turned toward the store owner and a big grin appeared on his face. Johnny said, "Well, if I took the dime, they'd stop doing it. So far I've saved $20!"
