And The Kreativ Blogger Award Goes To…

16 Comments

Thank you to those of you who have recently given me blog awards. I’ve been really terrible about passing these on, but no more! The next few Thursdays I’ll get to work.

I’m going to break the rules a bit. Instead of sharing seven things about myself, over the weeks I’ll give you book-related fun facts from my childhood. Here goes:

I was devistated when I learned Laura Ingalls Wilder didn’t acutally type and create the books  I personally owned. When you dad tells you Laura wrote your books, how can you believe anything different?

And the award goes to…

    Thanks, Caroline!

    But you’re freaking me out. I had no idea that Laura Ingalls Wilder didn’t actually create those books! Who did? Her daughter? *snif* How could that be?

    I thought she took each page from my book, put it in her typewriter, glued it all together, and sent it to the bookstore. 🙂

    Literal young mind.

    Thank you, Caroline! I appreciate it!

    And too funny about Laura Ingalls Wilder. Loved the show. Never read the books (though I do have them).

    But…but…I just finished glueing the last page of my own manuscript to send out to my agent.

    Congrats on your awards!

    I loved the Laura Ingalls Wilder series when I was younger. I had a competition with my best friend to see who could read them the fastest.

    Of course I won! 🙂

    I just had a private conversation with Laura Ingalls Wilder and she wanted me to tell you that she did, indeed, type and paste every page before sending it to you. Just thought you’d like to know.
