Yeah, I thought so. Hehehe.
Guess who can’t blame me because she was nominated by her so-called friend (that K Z can be so mean sometimes):
Clare London! Come on down!
No excuses. Read these now! You know who I’m talking too!
*rubbing hands together* Let’s star-… what do you mean you don’t know what to do?! *sigh* How soon they forget my awesomeness…
Step 1. Virtual folk choose different elements to be included in a story.
Step 2. After counting the votes, I let you know the results and…
Step 3. Hand over the lot to Clare, who has managed to carve out 2 weeks in her busy schedule to write a short story incorporating your choices. This literary masterpiece *no pressure though, Clare* will then be posted on the blog.

Don’t worry. Clare’s much nicer than those other two. 😉
Kris + Books = Good. *Sometimes*. 
And I thought my 6 year olds powers of persuasion were amazing. You've simply kicked her out of the running. Poor thing, now I'll have to buy her a new toy. 😦

LOL. I thought isome of the references might send a few people to Google… and I just realised I should have numbered them for you. Oh well.
Hey! I can’t be blamed for this one, Tracy. It’s totally K Z’s fault. *Clare is sooo gonna kick her butt.*
You think so, Matthew. Hmmm, I hear they have good parties down there. Hehehe.
OMG!!!!! Good luck Clare. HAHAHAHAHAHA

Did you steal traffic cone from Craig? I do NOT want to see it used as it was discussed today. Clare, do you hear me? NO INSERTION OF TRAFFIC CONES!!!! I’m firm on this.
Tam, after reading Craig’s blog, the traffic cone has been in my head all of the freaking morning. Dear God. There are some visuals you just shouldn’t get early in the day.
*Stop laughing. You might upset, Clare!*
Ooh, you’ve chosen all my favourite British things. How can I decide? *ponders*.
Setting: a
Food: b (obviously. Hub makes the best yorkshire puds ever).
Character: c
Conflict: b
Phrase: b (I’m hoping for BDSM)
Object: b
Can’t wait for this – good luck, Clare!
Jen: Clare mentioned that she was hoping to give the virtuals a taste of England so I thought I would help her out a bit and liasied with the Mumma. Thus proving once and for all that any evil streak is definitely hereditary. LOL.
OMG, where on earth do you come up with these choices, lol, too funny!!
1- C
2- D
3- C
4- C
5- B

Looking forward to reading this one. Good luck Clare!!!!!!!

4. B
5. C
6. D
Good luck Clare!
Geez. You all are making it sound like I spend hours trying to come up with choices just to mess with the minds of authors. Do you really think I would do something like that??
Umm ye… I mean NO of course no!! Why would you even have that idea??
Lily ;D
Humph! Sissy is a bad girl! AND her Mumma is not evil!
I only helped you with one or two of the choices.
Poor Clare… Will she get to nominate the next author?
You didn’t answer that question Sissy…
Lily: Call me a cynic but how else was I to interpret – and I quote – “OMG, where on earth do you come up with these choices”?? Well, Lily??
Mumma: Don’t be acting all innocent and motherly.
Her choices were “Please Sir, can I have some more?” and “the Crown Jewels”. Both suggested with a nudge, nudge wink, wink I might add.
“Call me a cynic but how else was I to interpret – and I quote – “OMG, where on earth do you come up with these choices”?? Well, Lily??”
Kris, that was an OMG of admiration, as in “OMG, I stand in awe of the brilliance of the choices you provide for us.”
Feel better now??
Lily ♥
Oh… that’s okay then.
My thanks for the due acknowledgment of my greatness and humble apologies for doubting you.
You are such a suck-up Lily. 😛
Tam, don’t pick on Lily for admitting her love for me.
<>Geez. You all are making it sound like I spend hours trying to come up with choices just to mess with the minds of authors. Do you really think I would do something like that??<>Ummm. That’s a trick question, isn’t it?
And OMG! I’m currently reading Sean Michael’s Bent and…..*fans self*
No, it’s NOT a trick question, Orannia. *pouts*
You’re reading Sean Michael?? S/he gives good smut, doesn’t s/he. LOL. I was actually thinking about doing a post about ‘guilty pleasures/smut reads’ and this author immediately sprang to my mind – we must be on a similar wavelength. 😉
“Nicer than those other two”?
HOW VERY DARE YOU.
1. a
2. a (marmite… barf!)

Good luck, Clare!
Don’t be such a drama queen, Sean. *muttersomepeoplecanbesosensitivemutter*
<>“Nicer than those other two”?<>
Ahem. Yes, that comment did not go unnoticed.
[grumbleeffingwereeffingkangaroogrumble]
<>[grumbleeffingwereeffingkangaroogrumble]<>Ah, but I prayed very hard, KZ, for justice and mercy. And yes, no effingwereeffingkangaroo’s *coughcough*.
Don’t worry – my suffering still lies ahead, as you all gang up on poor little innocent ME! *ulp*
LMAO
Misery loves company, Clare! *g*
K Z: *sigh* Would you just get over it already!!! *And I thought I could hold a grudge. Bloody Hell.*
Clare: You should be thanking your lucky stars because I just had the AWESOME idea of… wait for it… “A WereKanga in London”. O_O
Don't listen to K Z. This is seriously fun…. for me. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!
