Weird Fact Weekend

Okay, busy busy weekend ahead of me, writing-wise, but before I take off, I just thought I’d point out a few things:

1. Editor and author Jason Pinter has a hardline blog up about hiring agents, which goes well with Julie Leto’s latest Marisela blog on the topic.

2. I’m officially on the list to sign at the RWA Literacy signing in Atlanta, which is interesting, because I wasn’t sure what the final decision had been. However, if I am signing, there won’t be many copies, so come early! With any luck, we’ll crank those babies out quickly and then I can get out from behind that table and hit the bar.

It’s officially “Weird Fact Weekend” at Diana’s Diversions! This is how it works. I post a weird fact about myself. Then the first person to post in the comments will comment upon my weird fact, then post a weird fact about him or herself. The second person to comment will comment about THAT person’s weird fact, and then include a weird fact of their own… and so on.

Here’s mine:

I have an excess adoration of cauliflower. I love it. I think it might be my favorite vegetable. I actually crave it sometimes. Raw, steamed, roasted, covered in cheese, curried, stir fried with szechuan sauce, I love it. I actually dinged a CP recently because one of her characters didn’t show the proper love for cauliflower in her book. My new thing is buying those jars of California Hot Mix and eating all the cauliflower out of it then throwing the rest away. When I go to the store, I sift through all the available jars on the shelf to find the one with the most cauliflower in the mix, an action which has earned me no small amount of odd stares in the pickle aisle. I would kill to find a company that just made California Hot Caulifower, but I think they need the jalapenos in the mix to make it work. Mmmmmm, cauliflower. (Guess what I’m craving now? Do you think 8:45 a.m. is too early for hot pickled cauliflower?)
