Welcome to Running With Quills, your online newsletter designed to keep you up to date with what your favorite authors (that would be us) are doing throughout the year. Here you will find the release dates of our new books and get information about our backlists. We'll preview our cover art here long before the books hit the stores and we'll keep you informed about works-in-progress and special projects. You'll also receive advance notice of signings and appearances. From time to time we'll give you a peek at our worlds, tell you what we're reading, and introduce you to some new authors.

(Incidentally, it's extremely cool to see how many authors get along so well and support each other - be you chicken or quill, you guys rock!)

You're so cute, quills. Such naive, wide-eyed little nimbies. How can you think, even for one nanosecond that Kitty is to be trusted? You'll pay, quils, and we squawkers will have the last laugh....


MUAHAHAHAHAAAAAA

Fine, Quills, have your fun. For now. You're about to learn that a chicken hijacked is a chicken fried. And not like Kitty gets fried, either. As we say in the chicken world, revenge is a dish best served with a little potato salad on the side. And your potatoes are about to get saladed bigtime. Just you wait.

Note to sister Quills: You guys don't think those Squawkers could actually do something to our blog, do you? I mean, they're chickens, for Pete's sake...And we did bribe Kitty, right? She wouldn't turn on us, would she?

Do you all think maybe we need to appoint a Head of Security here at RWQ?

Hmm.

CORRECTION: It was not a few Green Ghosts -- few being a relative term, of course -- that lured Kitty into dropping her feathers and becoming a Quill. Can we all say: Manolo Blaniks?

For more details on this bribe -- oops! bloodless coup -- check out my post at that "other" place, aka www.squawkradio.com.

P.S. Jayne, not to worry about security. Feathers are soft and scruffy and they itch. Quills are elegant and pointed and dangerous. Hence, that famous saying: "The Quill is mightier than the feather."

En garde!

Did someone mention fried chicken? With potato salad? Hmmm... If Kitty did indeed backstab us, bamboozle us, or otherwise take us to the cleaners, perhaps we should plan a picnic.
Who wants a leg?

But surely Kitty wouldn't do such a thing. SHe looks so... well, not exactly trustworthy. And surely "innocent" isn't the right word.
I'm starting to get a little worried here. What do you other Quills think?
I've got the frying pan. Anyone got the flour?

Is this anything like "flour power," Lori?

*spits feathers out of mouth*

*clears throat with green ghost marg. served by blue vampire special*

Well, that was an unusual experience!

Who was that masked woman with a skillet and an axe?

yikers

No one ever warned me what would happen if I started blogging.

*wonders if evil twin has something to do with all this*

The chickens are looking sick. Don't think I want the smell of them cooking in my house.

Oh, what am I thinking about? They don't have to be fried, we can make Drunken Chicken, a fine old Chinese dish I'd forgotten. Think how little preparation there'll be when they're all ready to go.

Pre-pickled chicken for Drunken Chiken? Someone ought to be selling that.

Another thought there. We can pick up a few pennies by selling Drunken Chicken. I'll have the stall. Ann, you're on drinks and watch for underage customers, please. Jayne, you're so good at sauces . . . Lori, please stay awake long enough to dress the chicken--don't waste any rhinestones. Sue, you write the blessing--something like, "None of these chickens came home to roost."

Pshaw, Stella. You can't scare us. Drunken Chicken is pretty much Standard Operating Procedure around our blog.

Now if you'll excuse me, Lisa Kleypas found a stray hairpin, and we've just about got it twisted into the proper key shape for this lock on the closet door. Could someone cue the stalker music please...?

Blogger elizabeth said...

*slides Green Ghost drinks under the closet door*

*poofs in some blue vampires specials to tickle the lock pick*

That should slow down the break and speed up the squawking.

ROTFLMAO!!! Okay, good come back, Elizabeth. But won't drunk chicks have a hard time manipulating a hair pin to open a lock???

And your point is?

BWAHAHAHAHA

Blogger Elizabeth Bevarly said...

Hey, you know, these Green Ghosts aren't too bad. Connie? Terri? Xtina? Have you tried these? Hey, Lisa, how's the lock coming? And somebody nudge Eloisa. She's snoring again...

Jayne, you should have hired the Mole Rangers to handle security before the multiple invasions started. Now I have to go knit them some more of those little kevlar-and-wolverine-fur balaclava helmets...

ymxkwj -- You moles, exfoliate Kitty, wash Jayne!

2:51 PM  
Blogger Santa said...

Eww, Talpiana (can I call you Tal - you Mole Ranger you)! Are you getting the visual of Kitty exfoliated? It's too horrible for words!

And if anyone can do amazing things with a hairpin it would have to be Lisa!! And once Eloisa wakes...well, boy....watch out!

Don't you think these chickens might be a wee bit inedible? They sound tough and the age they're at... I mean, sure, you can pluck and fry them but I'd just leave them out for some hungry cats.

LOL. I'm just watching Lori's Smiley yawn. It's contagious!!! I'm yawning, too. And I just got up from my...ahem, afternoon nap. It's 2109 EDT! Hey, maybe I'm on PDT after all. A good way to explain my after-midnight ramblings each day.

Well, watch out for those chickens. They may indeed try something even if the quill is mightier than the feather and the sword. So just don't let them at any swords and you've got it made.

Holy *@!*!, we're hip deep in feathers in here. The Squawk take-over? Kewl. Trusting Kitty? Not so much. I'm thinking we should find a way to turn Connie--the girl's got computer skills. And I for one could use someone to show me how to get that little picture dohickey in the upper right hand corner.

Connie. Babe. I hear you like the boys of the Nimitz. Well, its home is Bangor Navel base, which is just up the road a piece from my family's summer home. I can offer you unlimited Mai Tais, buff boys, and the prettiest view of the Olympics you'll ever hope to see.

Think about it. You'd look good in black and red.

HEY!! My pic appeared. It's magic.

Or, okay, maybe it's from when I actually figured out how to do it as Guest Blogger on the squawk station--and going back to the susan andersen sign-in name instead of susan a, which came up susana. Either way, who knew?

"scuse me, but isn't a Quill nothing but a feather?????

In the case of "the chicken or the egg" coming first, I'd have to say the chicken came first. Thus Quills are SECOND!!!!!!!

Ann - returning to the safety of the coup.

But without Quills, the chicken is merely a pinkish bagpipe with legs...

Jay, I guess it's what the philosophers talk about--the difference between being and beakcombing...
