So Tabula Rasa is the theory that babies are born with a blank slate . . . meaning they know nothing in the beginning. Every experience they have fills their slate [read that, mind] and makes them who they are.
This is my mind right now. I want to claim that there was a glitch in the system, and the whole hard drive just crashed. Perhaps it was a burn out. Nevertheless, there we are.
So I've seen others do this and I've been saving the idea for just such a moment as this: Go ahead, ask me any question you would like, and I may or may not answer it in the next post.
And in the mean time, feel free to add your vote to the last This vs. That debate if you haven't already. The results are coming next week! Don't get too excited, now. ;)
And now go, and have a wonderful weekend!

About Me
I am a wife and mother of three who works as a chauffeur/chef/maid/evil tyrant. In between times, I write middle grade books, with a special love for all things fairy tale, and am repped by Lauren Galit of the LKG Agency. Here on my blog, I talk a lot about books, and the publishing process, plus I mix a little fun with a little inspiration, and sneak in my fascination for personalized license plates.

If you didn't write, what would you do creatively?
Happy Friday :)
Justine cheated. She saw that on Elana J's blog this morning. ;)
What is the thing you like best about writing fiction? :D
Ooh! I love asking questions to writer friends. :o)
I'm going to ask 2:
1. What would be your ideal writing life?
2. When did you first know you wanted to write? (But not necessarily get published.)
Have a wonderful weekend as well!
What interesting bit of history about yourself would no one ever guess, the first time meeting you?
What is your favorite go-to book? Have a great weekend!
Do you believe in Tabula Rasa ? :D
What's your favorite book?
Who is your dream publisher? If you could chose who would do it...who would you want?
Edge of Your Seat Romance
What's one thing about writing that, before you wrote, you never imagined would come up? (Presuming you haven't been writing since, you know, birth.)
And, was it awesome to have your picture taken with Oscar?
HI, Janet,
I just hopped over from Rach's. Nice to meet you fellow crusader...
Have a great weekend.

Interesting thought about babies being born with a blank slate, knowing nothing in the beginning. I feel like that sometimes when I'm tired! Do your children give you much input about your writing?
