Monday Miscellaneari

I am still into creating new words after having so much fun with "bognati" yesterday, hence my new word Miscellaneari. Doesn't it sound more interesting that the usual word? Though I think that simply adding an "i" to the end of most words makes them more interesting (perhaps there is a new game in that!)

 Several people came up with great definitions for bognati yesterday - among them, a bog filled with gnats, and a bog in Cincinnati!

I think that my Nail Polish Story is supposed to go up today, but it's not there yet, so I'll let you know later when it is.

There is, however, a wonderful review for The Christmas Village over at Literary R&R. I'm always delighted when the grown-ups enjoy my book as much as the kids do! I keep saying, "It's not just for kids," but it's nice when someone else says it for me.

Hope Monday treats you well.

  4. Dear Melissa,
    The review was one to treasure. I noted that the reviewer said the book was written in a "simplistic" style. I've read the first page or so and I'd say rather that it's written simply. And that's a fine way to write.

    I'm finishing two books that were mentioned on two other blogs, but I'm looking forward to what I'm sure is your wonderfully told story. I'm eager to find out what happens in that village!

    Peace.
