Guess what I got nominated for?

Thank you John Satisfy for nominating me for the Liebster Award. What an intuitive way to get our blogs seen and recognized. I'd like to invite you all to experience a taste of Erotic Satisfaction where  you can find out more about John, his books and his Liebster Award post. He has some wonderful answers as well as good solid advice for fellow authors... oh and let me not forget his unique style of romance writing. I have read a few of John's stories and let me just say 'Satisfaction Guaranteed'. Don't take my word for it though. Read a sample from Teased&Pleased or find him baking cookies in the Sexy Holiday Bites collection.

OK- Let's get back to the Liebster Award. What are the rules. Yes, I know... no one likes rules, but these are easy-peasy to follow. Trust me, if I can do it, so can a caveman near you.

1. Thank the person who nominated you, and post a link to their blog on your blog.
2. Display the award on your blog — by including it in your post and/or displaying it using a “widget” or a “gadget”. (Note that the best way to do this is to save the image to your own computer and then upload it to your blog post.)
3. Answer 11 questions about yourself, which will be provided to you by the person who nominated you.
4. Provide 11 random facts about yourself.
5. Nominate 5 – 11 blogs that you feel deserve the award, who have a less than 1000 followers. (Note that you can always ask the blog owner this since not all blogs display a widget that lets the readers know this information!)
6. Create a new list of questions for the blogger to answer.
7. List these rules in your post. Once you have written and published it, you then have to:
8. Inform the people/blogs that you nominated that they have been nominated for the Liebster award and provide a link for them to your post so that they can learn about it (they might not have ever heard of it!)

Here are the questions that John picked out for me to answer. 

1. Where do you like to write?

I like to write next to a window. Preferably on a sunny day. Something about being on the inside looking out inspires my imagination. 

2. Do you listen to music when you write?

Nope. I find myself singing along and then can't concentrate on what I'm doing.

3. What is your favorite fruit.

Strawberries. 

4. What is your favorite movie.

This is a hard one. I don't watch many movies. I mean, I start to watch a lot of them, but then I end up falling asleep before the end. 
I'm going to have to say it's a toss up between The Wizard of OZ and Titanic 

5. What do you consider your most triumphant achievement?

Raising my children and seeing them become almost and mostly, successful well adjusted individuals. 

6. When will you consider  yourself successful?

I already do. (see answer #5)

7. What addiction do you have?

Do I really have to limit this to ONE? I have many. #1 is Coffee. I've tried rehab but I keep relapsing. I'm looking for a new sponsor, anyone interested? 

8. What do you consider your best trait?

Honesty 

9. Where is your favorite vacation destination?

The fantasy worlds inside my head.

10. What's your earliest memory?

Halloween of 1971. I was two years old. My dad insisted on dressing me as a Green Bay Packer for some silly contest. The shoes were to tight, the helmet was cumbersome and heavy. Most of all though, I remember getting upset because I won best costume and my Dad wouldn't give me the $5.00. (I really think this is why I don't like football to this day)

11. Who do you admire the most?

My Parents 


11 Random Facts about me that everyone should know.

4. I like liver, but not onions.
5. When I was 6 years old I lost my first tooth and cried when it slipped down the drain. 
6. I love listening to it rain. Someone said there's a name for that. Pluviophile! 
7. There's a vampire bat on my chest... yes, really.
8. I love happy dreams that make me wake up smiling or giggling.
9. Math was my favorite subject in high school because the teacher was hot!
10. Peoples minds fascinate me most in life, including my own.
