Just for Fun

Just for fun I created a Wordle word cloud of my novel (as it stands now mid-editing) and then I took an Instagram picture of it, because everything is better with Instagram.

The best part is that none of my overused words appear anywhere on this! Progress my lovelies, progress!

I am hoping to release the first chapter as a sample soon . . . anyone interested?

Our Fourth of July - Instagram Style

In Which My Kid's Stage a Murder Scene

Otherwise known as "I don't make the news, I just report it."

I can't really explain this picture to you. I don't know why the toy car is turned over, I suppose it was involved in a wreck. I don't know why Barbie is a) naked and b) lying there at Maddie's feet. Speaking of Maddie's feet, I don't know why she is lying under the tree house climber. I also don't know why James is looming above them - but I do know his shadow looks so menacing because the sun was really, really bright that day.

All I do know is that I had to take a picture. And that the picture is best presented in black and white.

Having Way Too Much Fun With Instagram

Today is the last day to enter my CSN Stores giveaway!

I am loving the free iPhone app Instagram! I downloaded it a week or so ago and I am having way too much fun with it!

You can take pictures (or select from your library), add fun filters, and share to your Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Flickr, Posterous, and Foursquare all at once, individually, or in any combination you choose. I mostly share to Twitter and Facebook. You also have an Instagram stream of all of your shared photos, and can follow and comment on other's streams. In case you want to follow my stream, my user name is - wait for it, it's a shocker: narniamum.

The filters are all super cute, most of them with a vintage feel.

You can magically transport your kids to the 1970s . . .

Make any photo look artsy . . .

Make girl's night drinks look as good as they taste . . .

Make your every day life look postcard worthy . . .

(In-N-Out, yums)

Have you tried Instagram? Are you having as much fun as I am?
