Belated Tuesday's Theme #7

Hello dear readers. My apologies for my belated replies to those who have participated or left comments. I have 4 blogs, under two different identities, and I sometimes become overwhelmed and neglect this one. I've thought about deleting this blog as I've had so few participants, but it seems as though I'm starting to gain more so I'll continue with it for now. Thanks to everyone who reads and participates!

To those who are just joining us I am running a contest to find a new name for my Saturday prompt, currently known as Saturday Free For All. I find that name to be rather unimaginative and I'm looking for a new one. You can find the specifics of said contest in this post and the books up for grabs in this post. I have not yet set an end date as I've only had one participant so far, so it will be running indefinitely. As I'm starting to gain more readers I hope that I will have more participants in the contest as well.

Onto Tuesday's Theme...

With Valentine's Day coming up this Saturday I though I'd pick a theme having to do with that. There are plenty of lovey-dovey, fluffy bunny posts out there about love and romance, and as they tend to make me nauseous, I'm heading in a different direction. So, Tuesday's Theme this week is:

Tainted Love

Write your poem, story, blog post, essay or what have you and leave a comment here with a permalink to your post, not a link to your blog in general so we can all check it out.

May inspiration always find you!

Saturday Free For All #17

We are onto the Saturday Free For All #17, which is my lucky number. I still only have one contest entry and it would make my day if there were more, the contest will run for at least another 2 weeks, so offer some ideas, please! You can check out the prizes here.

Yes, I'm a day late with this, but yesterday I was ill and just couldn't post.

I'm borrowing from a theme at Sunday Scribblings (I hope you don't mind! If so, let me know and I will delete this one and post a new prompt for today. You can read my post on Phantoms and Shadows here) and twisting it just a bit. I want to hear about your memories, but not normal memories, this theme is:

Odd Remembrances

What are your strangest memories? What are the most unusual, out of the ordinary, twisted memories you can conjure?

Write your poem, story, essay or blog post and leave a permalink to that post (not your blog in general) in the comment section and I will follow it and check it out!

Tomorrow I will write a post thanking my top Entrecard droppers for January, so come back to check that out.

May inspiration always find you!

New Look, Contest Books and Tuesday's Theme

Ok, in case you haven't noticed I changed my page some and added my fav writing quotes to my sidebar.

Also, I have decided on the books I will offer the contest winner to choose from once the contest has concluded. You may choose one of these 3 books:

Me Talk Pretty One Day~David Sedaris

Interpreter of Maladies~Jhumpa Lahiri

Queen of Camelot~Nancy McKenzie

All three of these books are amazing, it is a hard choice. The first 2 are collections of short stories by amazingly superlative authors and the 3rd is a novel about the reign of King Arthur and his beautiful, enigmatic wife, Guinevere, told by one of my fav authors, Nancy McKenzie. You can read my review of this novel here.

So, come on people, I've only had one person offer their idea for the contest. I'm a damsel in distress and I need your help finding a new name for Free For All Saturday! Help a gal out, won't ya?

Now, on to Tuesday's Theme....

Confusion

Write a story, poem, essay or blog post regarding this theme and once you are done leave a link to that post (not to your blog in general) here in the comment section. Also, please remember to link to this post in your post.

May inspiration always find you!
