a bit of a byte
Just a quick note to let you know Chapter 7 is up at ChapterBytes, written by Jennifer at Thursday Drive. You did an awesome job girl! I love the twist!!
Anyone else want to write a bit? Don’t be scared! Some of our authors have NEVER written fiction before and you’d never know it. Don’t want to write yourself but you know someone who loves to write and might want to have a little fun with us? Pass it along! Email me at chapterbytes at gmail dot com or catnip35 at gmail dot com.
Not into chick lit? I’m thinking the next “book” is going to be a little scifi/fantasy, what do you think?
oh my!
We have a first over at ChapterBytes. Our first only male writer has written his part of the story. Backpackingdad is, self-admittedly, very comfortable in the mommyblogger world, so when I approached him to write for us I knew he would be awesome. I was right.
When you’re done reading (and commenting 
you have to go see his “alternative” chapter posted on his own site that he tried to pass off as his real chapter yesterday. I almost had heart failure when I first saw it. My plan was to make the next writer turn it into a dream. It actually took me a minute to realize it was a joke. If this “book” ever got published for real, I’m totally putting that chapter in.
uh, hi!
Hey, how ya been? I’ve been a little busy this weekend with *gasp* real life stuff! During my craziness I never got a chance to tell you Chapter 5 of ChapterBytes went up on Friday! Oops. 
Erin met the challenge and it’s getting really juicy…
I ate a lot of ribs this weekend, what did you do?
fresh byte
Guess what? ChapterBytes just keeps getting better! Did I mention Ms. Flutter has written quite a twist in chapter 4? Go see!
another byte
Chapter 2 of Foodie is up at ChapterBytes! Kristen did an awesome job – go see!
nervous stomach
Are you all sick of ChapterBytes? I hope not.
I titled the book Foodie. There’s nothing I like better than food! Heh. I’d like to keep my own personal thoughts about it over here so I can keep it professional over there. I’m really nervous about it. I’ve never put my fiction out there for more than a couple of people to read. Let me know what you think!
not as bad as I expected
Nothing to see here folks! Only because I’ve done nothing particularly special except survive the week.
Okay, that’s not true. The week so far has been extremely easy. The boy has been on his best behavior, I have no idea why, and my co-workers have left me alone. I sure hope I didn’t just jinx myself by saying that! Mostly he’s been playing outside, inside, near me as much as possible, but playing, playing, playing. And STILL not asking for TV. Woohoo!
So what have I been doing? Well, I started that other website, and once I did it, I felt the pressure to write. Someone has to start the first chapter! What the heck have I done to myself?
I’ve also been trying to keep up with the housework, which I would normally let slide during the week, since my MIL is thinking about coming for the day Saturday so she can see the boy’s t-ball game. It would be nice if the house was semi decent before she shows up, though we all know she loves to come here and compulsively clean it for me. And I do so love her for it! Kinda wish she’d come more often! Heh. We once made a deal that if she ever came to leave near us, they could come over every night and I would be happy to cook as long as she cleaned up. We both thought we were getting the better end of the bargain!
See ya’ll later, maybe when I have something real to write about!
ChapterBytes launch!
I’ve been working up a little something new. I love to write, don’t you? You wouldn’t have a blog if you didn’t! But do you like to write fiction? Well I do that too, but here’s my problem, I get a few chapters into my Great American Novel and I give up. Here’s my solution: let’s write a book together! All of us!
Intrigued? Go check out ChapterBytes and if you’re interested in writing for it send me an email at chapterbytes at gmail dot com.
