Yikes, it's been a while!

I just realized I never posted the winner of the contest over here... So sorry about that! The winner was LJ User "Hinode" and her books are on the way!

Hey all, I'm still alive, just trying to get a lot of random bits of life back in order. Nothing terrible going on, just still playing catch-up from last month- and it's almost July! Ugh!

Anyway, I'm really only popping in to promo a contest I meant to mention (and, uh, enter) when she first posted it... Tiffany Trent is having a "Favorite Strong Female Character" contest on her blog (enter here), and you could win a hardback omnibus edition of Tamora Pierce's Song of the Lioness! So head on over and join in the discussion about your fave strong females. She's picking on July 1, so hurry!

I decided to go with Katsa from Graceling (Tiffany S. I swear I will get to Fire ASAP!), but as I was thinking about it, I realized a lot of my favorite strong women characters actually come from TV, not books- like Sarah from "Chuck" or Fiona from "Burn Notice." I'm pondering pondering over this in a blog post soon, but even if that isn't the topic, I promise there will be more posts coming up! I just need to get a few of these "to-dos" off my plate!
