posts at The
Write Conversation on tips for using cliffhangers in our books. While
they're effective, they can give the reader ulcers if they're overused.
2. I love Facebook,
but I have to admit some social media platforms leave me cold. Twitter is a
fine example. When I saw Edie Melson, at The
Write Conversation, wrote a post about using Twitter, I thought perhaps it
would help me understand it better. She gives the Twitter ABCs.
3. Breaking
Christian News reports a Senate Committee has referred Planned Parenthood
to the FBI for criminal investigation. The issue is the selling of fetal body
parts, which is against the law.
4. Lynn Simpson
shares her word for 2017 and the challenges she's experienced.
5. Since my birthday
was yesterday, I thought about celebrations and how to make them special. When
Sweetie Mom turned 75 quite a few years ago, I threw her a, "This Is Your
Life," party. I enlisted the help of family members, and we surprised her
with people she hadn't seen in a while - her father, sister, brother and
sister-in-law all showed up as part of the festivities. Friends from her church
in another state were also invited.
I googled for information about parties and found this site. The event planner gives
tips on making those milestone birthdays extra special.
Writers: Do you
incorporate cliffhangers in your writing? Please share.
Readers: Are you on
Twitter, and do you connect with authors there? What are your thoughts about
that Social Media platform?

I hope this finds you and yours doing well. May we display your linked header on our new site directory, SiteHoundSniffs.com? As it is now, the site title (linked back to its home page) is listed, and we think displaying the header will attract more attention.
If you are concerned about me being up to no good, please do a Google search for SiteHoundSniffs (with or without the .com). The results should prove that it is meant to be a very good thing.
Specifically, what we are wanting to do is take a screenshot of your header and display it (linked back to the homepage) in place of the text-link. If you will visit SiteHoundSniffs.com, it should be easy to see how having a displayed header makes an individual site more attractive to visitors and SiteHoundSniffs look better. You do not have to do a thing but grant permission. There is absolutely no charge, nor will there ever be.
