This is going to be a relatively short Friday Favorites post because there is something so cool going on in the blogosphere today that I’m going to send you off to check it out.
But first, a couple of fun posts that had me grinning:
Myndi Shafer struggled with writing log lines and decided to have a little fun with it.

Jennifer Liberts Weinberg, the Kvetch Mom, has a great post on shopping for jeans after giving birth to 3 kids. I can totally relate.
Tiffany White does a great job as usual talking about TV. This week she talks about the return of Breakout Kings. I watched the first season and enjoyed it enough to keep watching, but like Tiffany, I don’t have to see it the moment it’s finished recording. I use it as filler whenever I have spare time.
I only have 2 writing related posts:
Marcy Kennedy made my heart swell with her post on grammar mistakes that will cost you readers. As an English teacher, I cringe at these kinds of mistakes.
Jenny Hansen has the 4th post of a great series of posts on using Triberr. I know nothing about Triberr, other than it’s supposed to help you simplify social media and networking. I’m not sure I totally believe that claim, but Jenny is certainly convincing.
Beauty of a Woman Blogfest
That’s all I’m going to link to today because over on August McLaughlin’s blog, she is hosting a Beauty of a Woman blogfest. All of the posts are about what beauty means to different people.
I managed to see a few of the posts by people I know and they are simply amazing. The whole concept is fantastic and inspiring and I thank August for dreaming it up. Go to her blog now for the list of participating writers, but be prepared: You will get lost for a long time in excellent reading 🙂
Oh, yeah — there are prizes too.
Shannyn Schroeder's Blog 
Hi, Shannyn! Thanks so much for linking back to my blog. I appreciate it! And now I’m excited to get to know you & your blog 🙂
Right back at you. Your blog is great. Usually funny, but even when you’re serious, you give me lots to think about. Thanks for stopping by
Always happy to meet another Breakout Kings fan… who’s your favorite character? Thanks for including me in your Friday Favorites!
Erica is by far my favorite. Although she’s guilty of doing so much more than she was convicted of, it just seems a little unfair. Part of me wanted her to get away with it. It’s not like she went around attacking innocent people. Plus, I think of the inmates, she has the most to live for to make her life right.
Great mash-up Shannyn. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for your support, Shannyn!
No thanks needed. I saw a few posts popping up and I was totally amazed by them. It’s the kind of stuff I want to print out and save for my daughters.
Shannyn – I’m so sorry to be late to the party! Thanks so much for the link to my Triberr posts. I’m glad you’re finding them helpful. As you know, I Heart Triberr. 🙂
Great mash-up!!
