Sunday Roast


Just prior to David McMahon's sign-0ff from Authorblog to work on his novels, he asked me to participate in his Sunday Roast interview segment. Now, the fabulous Eddie Bluelights of Clouds and Silvery Linings has taken over for David and my interview is featured this weekend! I do not like being 51 (years old) but being 87 (in a prestigious list of weekly interviews) has a nice ring to it.

Please stop by and check out my interview. And while you're at it, please scroll down to the next (most recent) post by Eddie to get to know him better. His plate is pretty full these days so show him so love. Eddie was a real gem to work with on this and I'm looking forward to many more Sunday Roasts.

Thanks and have a great weekend. I'm still loving my vacation. I'll be back Tuesday!

Welcome to The Fifty Factor - Joanna

Nice interview! I enjoyed the answers. I so agree with you on the word verification thing. I hate it!

Nezzy said...

Great job, girl. I so enjoyed the interview. I certainly hate the word verification thing especially when those plumpy fat letters squish up against one another and you can't tell whats-what!

Have a great weekend surrounded by blessings!!!

This is a great interview. It still surprises me to be reminded by you that you are a fairly new blogger. You are a savvy, seasoned blogger with a lot of heart and humor in my book.

Now that you are a celebrity we can say we read your blog when......

Eddie Bluelights said...

Great fun Joanna and I am so pleased the whole venue enabled me to meet and to get to know you. That's the beauty of taking on the Sunday Roast. And thank you for your very kind comments on your post. If you want some humour I would suggest having a peek at the first two episodes of my Wizard Of Oz - soon the be revived! Take care ~ Eddie

Okay Joanna. It's official...

You are now my most favorite person on Earth. Not only do I bow to you completely for you awesomeness and brilliance and level-headed ness and lack of freaking out over your sliding pool - but I adore you for liking me and my stupid silly humble little blog and for recommending me in you Sunday Roast. OMG. I'm stunned! I wondered how that happened. Thank you my goddess. Thank you for your kindness and your friendship and your support and your love.

And please know that you have all that and more rebounding right back at you from Casa Hice.

I love you Joanna. Gotta dash now though because I need to get my shrine to you built before the sun goes down.

Your interview was great, Joanna. I especially like what you said about writing for yourself and reading other blogs of interest. There are so many good ones. Don't let being in your fifties be a bad thing....I just finished them and I thought they were great years and am finding even early sixties to be pretty good.
