To help liven up our one year anniversary, I’ve invited a few hunky friends to join in on the fun today. So please be sure to make them all feel at home and welcome here in the jungle! 
Over the past year, all of us Plotmonkeys have shared various things about ourselves, our writing lives, and most especially our family lives. You’ve learned about our pets, and even our pet peeves. You’ve come to know the good, the bad, and sometimes even the ugly. You’ve laughed with us, cried with us, and even defended us. All four of us have loved sharing a part 
of ourselves, and so many of you have done the same during your posts, and we sincerely THANK YOU for making this such a special place for not only us, but for so many who visit on a daily basis. You all are truly the ones who have made this blog such a pleasure and success!
To celebrate our one year anniversary, I thought we’d do something fun — a little test of your knowledge of the Plotmonkeys. :wink: I know some of you have been with us from the beginning of the blog, and others are just getting to know us — but all these answers are posted somewhere in our past blogs, so everyone can easily figure out the answers!
Of course there will be prizes involved — five (5) of them in all today! And EVERYONE will have a chance to win, whether you guess the correct answers, or not. But the posters who guess all the questions accurately will be eligible for the GRAND PRIZE! Everyone else who posts will be eligible for one of the four runner-up prizes.
One (1) grand prize winner will receive a complete “Take a Walk on the Wilde Side” set that includes a ceramic mug, matching coaster, and mousepad! Winner will also receive an autographed book of their choice from Janelle’s backlist, leopard print bookcover, and book thong! (WOW 8O)
Four (4) runner-up winners will receive a $5.00 online gift certificate to Barnes & Noble! 
Here are the questions. Good luck (no cheating by copying someone else’s answers! 
) and have fun!
1) What Plotmonkey loves the color pink?
2) Which Plotmonkey has a kid in college?
3) Which Plotmonkey has a vegetarian daughter?
4) Which Plotmonkey is a major food-o-holic?
5) What editor do all four Plotmonkeys have in common?
6) What state did the Plotmonkeys spend their most recent plotting session?
Be sure to check tomorrow’s blog to see the correct answers and find out who today’s winners are!
And the winner of yesterday’s Birthday drawing (in honor of Jen’s birthday on April 18) is:
# 18 Vicki!!!
Email me at: carlyphillips@mac.com with your info.
Janelle Denison finds it hard to believe that it’s been nearly 25 years since she first started writing romance novels. At first, it was a way to pass idle time while her husband worked swing shift, but before long it became an obsession to get published. Luckily, she kept at it (it took her over 5 years to get that first book published!) and is now a Waldenbooks, Barnes & Noble, and USA Today Bestselling author! Now, after selling over 45 plus novels, she finds that her Plotmonkey pals help to keep her stories fresh and unique, and she can’t imagine writing a story without their input. Janelle lives in Oregon with her husband, Don, along with two teenage daughters that keep life interesting.

I thought maybe the “guests” were going to be the Plotmonkey spouses and that we’d have to match them up with the appropriate Plotmonkey.
