10 signs a book is written by me

Fellow blogger/writer Lee has tagged me with the meme. I haven't memed in awhile, and this one fits my blog's topic, so I'm playing. Thanks, Lee!

10 signs a book is written by me

1. It takes place somewhere else entirely.

2. It has a sequel, and possibly a prequel.

3. Its first draft was written in a month. (I do National Novel Writing Month to get my novels started.)

4. My characters like to talk a lot.

5. A fair amount of silliness interrupts pages and pages of serious drama.

6. It's action packed.

7. While neither unicorns nor chocolate appear in its pages, it is still full of many splendid things.

8. It is often unbelievable, but in a good way.

9. Two words: dream sequences.

10. It has my name on the front cover.

I am now tagging rel, Crafty Green Poet, Becca, Bleeding Espresso, and Rooted. If you'd like to play and I haven't tagged you, go right ahead, then drop back by and leave us the link.

Hello and welcome!

My name is Kristin Gorski. I recently earned my doctorate (EdD) in instructional technology and media. My research focuses on technology and literacies, writing in digital spaces, and how media literacy may support academic literacy (among other incredibly interesting topics). On occasion, I’m also a freelance writer and editor. “Write now is good.” is my personal blog about writing, creativity and inspiration (with healthy doses of technology in relevant places). I started it in blogging's heyday (2006) and still post to it, time permitting. If you'd like to collaborate on a project, have writing/technology/creativity info to share, or want to say, "Hi," contact me at kgwritenow (at) yahoo dot com.
