Overheard at... Starbucks

6/6/2013

"Seriously? You've been nursing your coffees here for two years?"

That's right.... It is my Two Year Blogiversary today, June 6th. It was only two short years ago that this blog journey began, and now I see how far we've come.

So, to celebrate, I am holding a raffle for a $10 gift card to either Amazon or B&N. All you have to do is 1. share this post with a friend on Twitter (or click the Facebook 'like' button at the end of the post) and 2. comment about your favorite post over the last two years. (I personally love the squirrel ones.... there is no end to the amusement I get from venting about them. But then, some of my original overhears at Starbucks are pretty darn good also.)

In any case... I appreciate your sharing this marvelous journey with me and look forward to the next two years together. The contest will run until Tuesday June 11th - when it will be back to my usual posts about what I overhear while writing. Until then, enjoy this peek into my world at Starbucks, and good luck with the contest.

Warmly,
Deanne Wilsted

    Background - Overheard While Writing
    It's hard to explain, but 12 years ago, when I started to write seriously, the only place where I could get my work done was at Starbucks. 

    Since then, 4 manuscripts and 4 favored Starbucks later, I sill find myself drawn to a cozy corner and a half-decaf Americano.... not to mention the many friendly faces that greet me when I arrive.

    And, while I try to stay focused, there are some times when the conversations or interactions that surround me draw my attention away from my own characters, and into the world of life's own characters. 

    This BLOG captures some of those funny, sincere, inspiring moments. Maybe they will give you a reason to write as well.
