Inside the Writer's Garret

On writing and life, with a little chocolate thrown in from time to time.

There's a bit of serendipity at work here. As I sat down at my writing desk this morning, I thought I ought to post a writer's garret blog. But what to blog about? Then I opened an e-mail from my fellow writer friend Catherine Cavendish, asking if I'd like an inspiring blogger award for the new blog. Perfect!
The award rules are simple, well, sort of. First off, post the award banner. Done. Then link up to the site of the person who awarded it to you. Easy peasy. I highly recommend Cat's blog, I love her posts. You can find it here

The next rule wasn't quite so easy peasy. List seven things about yourself.  Cat suggested I have fun with it. Hmm, let's see. What can I tell you about myself?


Picture
I live in New Hampshire, a lovely wooded place. I love hiking through the woods. Rocky Pond, pictured here, is one of my favorite hiking spots.

Picture
I've got a thing for gummy bears. Love them. I think this is the first time I've admitted this anywhere.

Picture
I love New York.  My husband and I go to visit once or twice a year. We're big theater fans and what better place to see live theater than the Great White Way? My favorite plays include Once, August Osage County, and Memphis. We'll go again this summer,  and are busy deciding what to see. 

Picture
Although most people would disagree, I like winter. Or, at least, I like beautiful snow bright days when it's not too cold to go outside.  I grew up skiing and, though I don't get to go downhill much anymore, there's nothing much more fun than getting out on my skinny skis and doing some cross country at the the local park. 

Picture
I like to listen to music when I write. I make playlists for all of my projects, music that picks up on the tone of the book. I've shared some of the selections on each of my book pages, you'll find them next to the icon at left.

Picture
Since I've named my other blog 'coffee with friends' it should come as no surprise that I'm a coffee addict. Yes, that is Anton and Lenora floating around in the foam. My publisher did it as a Sweet Lenora promotion. Isn't it terrific? 

Picture
One of my other favorite places in the world is Cape Cod Bay. Sunset on the bay at the end of a perfect summer's day-- oh yes, that's life as it should be. 

 The last rule is to pass the blog award along to three more bloggers. 
I'm nominating
Stephanie Joyce Cole (Compass North) 
Ally Shields

Great post, Ute, and I love the new blog. You've given me a hankering to visit New Hampshire now!
