it was a neat writing project open to anyone who wanted to participate. all you had to do was go to the site and pick a charm and write a short story or poem inspired by that charm. and...there was a BONUS! you got the for charm you picked. yep! miss sally sent it all the way from australia. WOW! how cool is that!
i picked a bus charm and wrote a fun poem about a island country bus "rumbling on her daily run, underneath the island sun" on the way to market. its in book 2.
i liked being part of the project not just cause of the writing...but i loved doing a togetherness project with three of my neat blogger buddies: miss sharon and miss theresa and miss robyn. their stories are in the books too!!
you can get more details about the books at my blogger buddies blogs. just click on their names and WHAMO youll be transported there. and...miss sharon is gonna give away a signed copy of book 2 (the one her story is in) to one lucky commenter WOW! how charming is that!
fun project! have you ever been in a writing project like this?
...hugs from lenny
I saw that on two others sites - congratulations on being part of it! I've done two anthologies and they are a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteI shall go visit those sites. I know Sharon Mayhew speaks very highly of you.
ReplyDeleteI am very proud of you and congratulate you. I am sure that you will do very good things in life. God Bless you.
Hugs!
I loved that we did this project together. It made it even more. Fun.
ReplyDeleteSo awesome that you did the project with Sharon, Theresa, and Robyn. Congrats on getting published. Hope you have a great holiday and do lots of fun things. Have missed seeing you on your blog lately.
ReplyDeleteVery cool that everyone was invited to take part in that project, and it sounds like you contributed a great poem.
ReplyDeleteAnd you got to do it with your friends, too! :-)
Nope I never have Lenny, I am not really a writer although I have written poetry in the past. I can imagine taking part would have been terrific fun. Way to go for all of you.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like an awesome project, Lenny! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI think it would be fun to write a book with bunch of author friends :-)
Very cool, Lenny! It looks like it was a fun project. Your poem sounds terrific! I wouldn't mind being under the island sun right now. It sure is cold in PA these days!
ReplyDeleteHope you're well! Watching football? The Eagles have picked up the pace (surprisingly!), and my fingers are crossed they'll be in the playoffs. How are the Falcons doing??
Have a great weekend, Lenny!
Happy reading and writing! from Laura Marcella @ Wavy Lines
That makes you a published author now, Lenny. Right?

ReplyDeleteThat's really awesome Lenny! Congrats!!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Lenny! I have a story in the third volume. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Lenny .. I know your bus poem and it is such a fun read .. I'm sure many will enjoy it. Miss Sally seems to have collected some wonderful story tellers for her crocks .. such a good name "Crock of Charms" ... I've asked Sharon how I get hold of the three series .. they'll be good reads.
ReplyDeleteWonderful to hear from you ... and isn't that amazing that you're a published author - what a wonderful Christmas present ...
Happy pre Christmas week ... lots of exciting things going on .. I can hear your tummy rumbling in excitement! Big hugs - Hilary
