Nothing in the rules says you can’t have fun while writing books Yay! So Shelly Koon over at Dark Writes is passing the fun around with a game of TAG. Writer’s Platform Building Campaign people, here I come.
Here’s how it works: I bore you with 10 exciting, tantalizing . . . okay, boring things about ME! Then I run around to a few blogs and pounce on them with my, “You’re it!” No obligation, of course. Just do it if it feels right for you.
1. I’m a real sissy about heights. Glass elevators are the worst.
2. When I was ten I was in an orchestra, playing (really) a violin.
3. I’m basically lazy and I’ll procrastinate doing something until I absolutely have to. (Shhh. This is a secret.)
4. I so hate circuses.
5. When it comes to sharing, I’m not good at it. Ask my sister.
6. Once I ate an ant. (Okay, I was five. I was curious. I’m not curious anymore.) Sorry ant.
7. I was sure I was going to be an archeologist when I grew up. Didn’t happen.
8. Since I have an ocean a few miles from me, I still body surf, but not like I did when I lived in San Diego.
9. I can eat three lobsters at one sitting. My stomach prefers I don’t do that.
10. Blogging doesn’t come naturally to me. (This is a huge surprise, right?)
Now on to my Tag Buddies:
Rachael, I know you’re a busy lady, but if you have a moment, go tag somebody!
Carrie Butler. She’s a great Campaigner. Your it!
Rebecca Enzo: Another one who has a natural talent for blogging.
Meredith Mansfield. Wanna play?

Hi love your ten. I get a bit wary of heights too.
Shelley Koon says
I hate the circus too! It breaks my heart to see all the animals confined. Ants taste like pepper – that I remember 😉
Next time I am down in your area we should go get coffee/tea – we really do have a lot of commonalities Lee!
Carrie Butler says
Hah! #6 killed me. (I'm glad you're not curious anymore! *grins*)
What a fun post! Thank you for tagging me. I'll try to get something together in a day or two. 😀
Angelina C. Hansen says
I love this! Thanks for making me laugh. I hope someone tags me with this one day. It seems like a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing ^_^
Melodie says
3 lobsters! *goggling eyes* Wait – w/ or w/o butter? If you ate them with butter, I am officially amazed. I can barely finish one.
Coleen Patrick says

Your list made me laugh, especially about the ant! You brave soul, still body surfing. Wow, that's impressive. No, I never would have guessed that blogging doesn't come naturally for you. Well, you sure had us fooled. Sounds like you're having fun with the campaign. That's great! Oh, I passed on the One to Follow award in my post today and I mentioned you. That's such a cool award! Thanks again.
Alison Miller says
Great interview!
And I'm a total neurotic when it comes to heights too!
Samantha says
I tried to eat a slug once because I thought it was chocolate…mom saved my life.
DazyDayWriter says
What a fun idea, Lee! I'll be checking back to see how it goes. Working my way through a rather formidable to-do list this week! Hope you're enjoying some lovely fallish weather … Daisy
C. Lee McKenzie says
Looks like we have an anti circus group here. And that ant was au natural, Samantha. Burnt like hell.
Samantha Vérant says
Haha! I'm afraid of circuses, too! It's those freaky clowns! I hope the ant was chocolate covered!
jenniferpickrell says
I hate circuses, too! They are completely depressing to me – sitting in a hot, smelly tent and watching sad-looking animals parade around. And glass elevators give me major vertigo…ick.

It's totally awesome that you think blogging comes naturally to me 😉 Talking about myself comes naturally for sure, but sticking to a blogging schedule? Ha! 🙂
Thanks for tagging me! I'll post my 10 things next Tuesday 🙂
