Black Boxes & Yellow Ball in the Sky

I've just started reading this book and am thoroughly enjoying it.

I was wanting to post Caroline Smailes' Black Boxes link here as it's great fun, but couldn't manage to, so please click on the widget to the right of this post. You'll be asked various questions and given a link to another site. Loving it. Wish I had the self-control to stop playing on it and get on with some writing, but I'm just having too much fun.

I think I'll give myself five more minutes then I'd better get outside and make the most of the heat radiating from that big yellow ball in the sky. I'm sure I know what it's called, hang on, oh yes, it's the sun.

Have a great day.

Where did the sun come from? I'm worried it may be strangely linked with the black hole experiment! :-)

This is just something else to keep me from my writing too! But what fun it is.

Lane Mathias said...

I saw that big yellow ball today too. Amazing wasn't it:-)

I spent most of the morning in my apple tree trying to get the best of the crop so I could make a crumble for dessert. Make the most of the sun as it won't last I best!
I read Lola Jaye's book too. I enjoyed it. She is a lovely person too.

annie bright - I do hope it isn't. That black hole business is rather strange, I think. I can't help thinking how all those billions could be put to far better use.

kaye manro - I know, me too. I really shall have to stop playing for a bit.

lane - very unusual, but so exciting.

irishkat - thank you for popping in too. I'm loving this widget, and spending far too much time on it too.

sarah *g* - my step-father was the one in my apple tree today. I have so many now and shall have to make sure they start having them in their lunch boxes.

Karen said...

I've been fingering that damn widget for far too long now (as it were)!!

Heat? Sun? That's that then?

I'm craving sunshine like you wouldn't believe at the moment. Sigh.

Have you considered on-demand self publishing for that finished manuscript gathering dust on your desk? Or maybe even publishing your blog as a book?



I found a new website, WorldWide Alliance of Writers, www.wwaow.com. It only takes about 10 minutes and you get your book published instantly worldwide. For less than $100 you will receive 5 printed copies of your book and a listing on their e-commerce web site.

Oh yes - the sun. We are veryyyy familiar with it hear in the desert. We are just hoping it might finally cool off for a while for us.

Annieye said...

Agree wholeheartedly with you on both the book and the widget. I think I'll just have ONE more go .....

karen - I sympathize, it's far too addictive, but such fun.

It's sunny again today, thankfully.

hayes r. - no I hadn't, thank you for letting me know.

chad - yes, I suppose you don't have a lack of the sun in the desert, shame we can't swap for a bit.

annieye - I know, I do that. Just one more go, then another...
