It's not everyday that two people from the same small blogging group (the Girlfriends Cyber Circuit) get chosen by World Book Day, a UK site of some renown, to have their books on the best 100 list. But, wait! Just like the Popeil commercial, there's MORE! Not only did Joshilyn Jackson and Elizabeth Graham make the centurion list but they made the TOP TEN! Amazing, or as they say in England, brilliant.
Both these books deserve the notice, and, just like in the good olde days of Chicago under Daley the first,, now that they've made the short list, my motto is, vote early and vote often. I'll give you the link below, but before you go there, please know you'll need to register if you haven't already. So far, I've only gotten a tiny tiny bit of spam and most of it does not involve penis enlargement, Nigerian dictators with money to unload or hot coeds ready to do ANYTHING. What is up with those English people? Have they no spunk? All I've heard from are bootleg designer clothing, jewelry and handbag makers and were I in the market for such fripperies, i'd be all over it.
Anyhow, here's the link to go vote for my girlfriends. Just do it. World Book Day Wants You to Weigh In Do so for no other reason than you can spare a couple of minutes to make someone's day. Joshilyn has been mighty sick with the FLU, and I do put that in capital letters because EVERYONE has been SO DAMN SICK that they can't even come to super bowl parties. I have become an even more FURIOUS hand-washer and the trick is (you heard it here first) after you wash, you then take the paper towel (or the sleeve of your sweater in an emergency) to open the door to the bathroom as you leave. Also, no bannisters, no party dips where someone might just have double dipped their flu encrusted Dorito, no sex with male or femail prostitutes. Just part of the clean living campaign we're waging here in the Panhandle. Clean, clean, clean.
Thank you for your support, Shelia!
