Tuesday’s Riddle! Solve it first and win a copy of The Arrival

March 15, 2011 by Nicole 7 Comments

In your preferred e-format of course.

So how is everyone?  It’s such a crazy time at the moment and I find myself refusing to read/watch the news as it makes me cry yet unable to stop.  I won’t go over it all again and again, so many others are.  But my deepest sympathies to those effected by the earthquake and tsunami.  And to all those seated on the ring of fire like myself please, please have your survival kit’s ready.  It isn’t unforeseeable that this might set off more such events – we are all linked remember.  Much better to be safe than sorry.
We got stuck into finishing our kit on the weekend and all we’re really waiting on is a decent first aid kit we ordered online.  Otherwise we have clothing, food, pet food, a picnic set (utensils etc), sleeping bags, tent, airbed and lots of water.  Actually I think we have a few more things but I can’t remember them off the top of my head.  I know we’re adding to the food stash this Friday (shopping day).  It does make you feel better knowing it’s there.  We’ve put it in the garage in the steel drawer left behind from the stove my parents took to our hut.  Makes a darn good spot!
And on to cheerful exciting stuff 🙂 I’ve sent off my Goodreads entry so fingers crossed.  I am a little concerned it won’t be funny enough but hey.. I still am really pleased with the result and am even considering popping it on Amazon as a cheap .99c thrill *giggle*  And now it’s back onto my draft while critiquing some other authors work.  It’s surprisingly helpful to be editing others while you work on your own – makes you more aware of bad habits (which let faces it.. we all have a few of those ;p).  I’m looking forward to revealing tomorrow’s book review which is 100% indie as the other review I intended to do fell through.  A pity but this book I’m going to introduce you to is an utter riot!
So until then J here is the riddle – and good luck!
What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?

Take care all!

    For Japan.

    I wish I could remember that riddle – wasn't that the point of Indiana Jones – to teach us a lot of riddles – or am I confused with a different movie?

    bahaha I know the answer! Wow… that's a first! Hint… baths, beaches, and dishes 🙂

    I totally agree with how it is actually helpful to help others while you edit your own WIP. I am doing that right now too, and every time I am done with my reading that day of my friend's piece, I just want to dive right back into mine!

    I have no idea! Yes, I am that lame.

    I agree; it's so helpful critiquing others' work.

    Hmm, how about a towel?

    I'm really sad about the news in Japan. I'm like you, I can't watch. However, I did find out my family are all safe. Some friends we're unsure of but family, they're all right.
