I'm still learning about Pinterest and it occurred to me this afternoon that I could create a board of quotes, beginning with something kooky my mother said to me after I graduated from high school in 1971.
It was obviously so memorable I included it all these years later, in my memoir: From Pigtails to Chin Hairs: A Memoir & More. It's at the end of the chapter titled: "That Crowbar Changed Everything"

Please click on the link below to go to the Pinterest board and read the quote.
If you haven't already read my memoir, would you say my mother's quote would inspire/motivate you to want to read it?
I'm including a give-away with this blog post. If you'd like to be included for a chance to win a print copy or ebook, leave a comment below about mothers/daughters/quotes and indicate which book you prefer: print or ebook. Give-away will be open until midnight on Friday, October 24th. If you mention this on Facebook, Twitter, or your own blog, you'll get an extra point for each. Feel free to tell your family and friends - - and Good Luck!
We'd love a copy. Have a terrific Tuesday.

Hi Molly! Thanks so much for stopping and commenting! You are in the drawing!
DeleteI guess it's not such a bad thing to have a crowbar fall on your head. Look how you turned out!
ReplyDeleteNice to see blogging again.
Hi Myrna! Your comment definitely made me smile! You're always so supportive!! You are in the drawing, too!
DeleteHaha. Wish I had the excuse of a crow bar. ;)

Hey I never thought of using it as an excuse! Thanks for the idea, Sue!! AND your comment, because you are entered into the drawing, too!
DeleteOh Becky. That was funny. And your Mom probably didn't even mean to be funny. (But she was). Yes, that would make me want to read the book. By the way, I'd love a print copy
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are on Pinterest. I'm there under Susan Gue. I have a lot of boards but it's SO MUCH FUN. Susan
Hi Susan! Thanks! You are so right, too, because my mother definitely did not intend to be funny. She really thought I was wacky! And I'm so happy that quote makes you want to read my memoir. You are in the drawing! P.S. I LOVE Pinterest, but WOW, it is even more addictive than blogging! Can't stay on it very long!!
DeleteYou are so cute!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
