What Carly had to say on Friday, July 31st, 2009
We all know Janelle’s a genius so I’m going to copy a giveaway I thought was brilliant: a $25 gift card to any online retailer (that has gift cards that I can EMAIL to you!) You see, when I can email it, I can send to you right away! So post your online retailer of choice … and GOOD LUCK! Winners and joke posted on Sunday!
Carly Phillips would like to take 100% credit for all her stories but the truth is, Carly’s strength is writing family, emotion, funky elderly people and animals. She couldn’t plot her way out of a paper bag, which is why she smartly found her plotmonkey pals early on in her writing career. Thanks to their support, Carly is now a NYT Bestselling author of 23 plus novels. Because writing doesn’t keep her busy enough, Carly is also a wife, a mother of one preteen and one teenage daughter, the primary care giver of her soft coated Wheaten terrier and an expert carpool mom.

Morning everyone. I’m so glad it’s Friday! I woke up super tired this morning and just can’t shake it off.
Any big plans? I’m attending a booksigning for Julie James & Beth Kery on Sunday, so that should be a lot of fun. What about all of you?
Comment
Nice giveaway. I’m surprised that I’m actually online early today.
Definitely count me in for the giveaway. I’d be inclined to go with Amazon, just because I can never have too many books. Now if I could just get my current assignments finished so that I actually have time to read without feeling guilty.
Comment
I’m tired this morning too, Stacy.
Online retailer of choice? Amazon, of course. Is there another?
Hope everyone has a great weekend.
Comment
Count me in. Amazon all the way! Have a great weekend!

Sony, since I do my books in digital. And need to get #2 of Leslie’s series when it comes out.
It’s going to rain again. I have contractor’s coming to put up a new gazebo.Don’t think it’s happening today.

Good morning everybody…Hey Carly, GCs are always great prizes…if I win, Amazon would be my choice…
I can’t believe that it is Friday, AGAIN!!! I feel like we the week just flew by. The weather is looking good here “crossed fingers and toes” and I hope the sun stays out all day…My brother is coming to pick up my nieces and then I can relax a little…having kids around is sooooo different…
I hope to get some writing in this weekend, and I hope Pitch Black came in the mail today…I thought when you pre-ordered, you would at least get the book before it comes out in the stores…I am sooo bummminnng…
Good luck to everyone…have a great rest of the day…I will swing by later…
Peace and love,
Paula R.

I like Amaozon or B&N Both Rock!
I hope everyone has a great day and weekend. :dogrun: I will be trying my best to start on house breaking my two new puppies Rudy and Bruno. They were dumped at my hubbys work and were only about 5 weeks old. Rudy is named for Rudolph Valentino and Bruno is named for the character Bruno in SEP’s book Match me if you can. The little guys are cute but boy am I tired of picking up dog doo!
LOL

I love gift cards – especially when they’re from Amazon.com! There is nothing quite like the joy of ordering books online. Unless you’re picking them up in the store! Love to read

Woke up to a beautiful day here in the midwest and can hardly believe it is not only Friday, but the last day of July…where is the summer going.
What a great prize!!! Although it is a difficult choice between Amazon and Barnes & Noble, I guess I would choose Barnes & Noble because they have a store so close to me in the neighborhood.
Wishing everyone a happy and safe week-end. Enjoy!!!
