There's a whole lotta hopping goin' on

Jen over at Crazy for Books hosts a weekly blog hop and I LOVE her for it. I like bouncing the blog-o-sphere and finding new people to stalk - I mean, follow.
 Here's this weeks topic...

“As a book blogger, how do you introduce yourself in your profile?”

My answer...
Here, it's all about the love... of reading YA, that is. I love to read it and write it. To me, even at 20-something, it's the best genre out there and I love to talk about it. That's why we're all here, right? I also search the blog-o-sphere for giveaways and share them here with you guys. I've even been known to do a giveaway or two on my Twitter and Facebook pages, feel free to add me as a friend or follow my random tweeting...

Also, here's my "About Moi" Introduction...
I am a 20 something, Stay-At-Home mom of two beautiful, smart, talented kids. My wonderful hubby works out of town so I have TONS of time for books, writing and sometimes blogging. I am also an internet junkie and tattoo addict. All of them are girly and meaningful, oh, and easily concealed. I am the product of two preachers (My mom AND dad ) so i was sheltered as a child and lived vicariously through fictional characters ;p.



~Fluent in sarcasm and Alabama Redneck

~I'm clumsy and forgetful

~I'm as goofy as goofy gets

~I love my family...



What about you? How do you make your virtual first impression? Hit me with your best shot and introduce thyself, peeps!

Bloggy- Blog Hop # 2!!

I love blog hops, you get to meet so MANY great, new bloggery type peeps. So, this week i'm doing it again.  Crazy for Books  is the weekly sponsor and this week's question is...




“Many of us primarily read one genre of books, with others sprinkled in. If authors stopped writing that genre, what genre would you start reading? Or would you give up reading completely if you couldn’t read that genre anymore?”




My Answer is: I LOVE YA. I basically only read YA (any kind) and V.C. Andrews, and that may as well be YA. Would i stop reading if YA was never made again? No, but I would read WAY less and write WAY more to bring the genre back, even if it was never published.


How do you all feel? Would you stop reading if they stopped writing your fave genre?

P.S. If you're a blogger too, don't forget to mention it so i can follow you back! ;p
