This are the results of what I dragged back from a chaotic trip across the romance blogland:
Karen Scott probably has the funniest 'About Me' blurb I'd come across so far:
Karen likes the sound of her own keyboard, and doesn't mind sharing her thoughts with the world. She's not fond of arseholes, sycophants, hypocrites, Osama Bin Laden, George Bush, JW Mckenna books, and parents who give their children daft-arsed names like Shaniqua, Squirreleesha, or Apple. She also swears. A lot. Sorry.
Found this at Nicole's blog, so ran my blog URL through that thingy from her
How Much Your Blog is Worth post:
I'm not sure if I should jump with joy or creep away with embarrassment because Will is not here to tell me what the figure means. Ha. Yeah, well. Let's move on swiftly, shall we?
I'd better stop as I'm starting to have a banging headache from squinting at the monitor for too long. It's almost dawn, too. I blame it on Allie Harrison's
Dream a Deadly Dream, an old
Silhouette Shadows book. I found a few Silhouette Shadows books in a charity shop yesterday. Since they all are paranormal romances, could I resist buying them? Nooo. I will write up a list of those books tomorrow and if you recognise any that you think I should read, I'd love it. :)
But before I go to bed: where is
Keishon's blog?! It wasn't long ago I saw her new-look blog, but it seems to have disappeared. Please don't tell me that she's deleted her blog and left the romance blogland? If she did ... *cries*
See you tomorrow [or rather, later today].
Be good be bad & be safe.

I remember Keishon's last post was that she was going on hiatus for a bit -- hopefully she'll be back before long?
Silhouette Shadows -- oh, how I adored it when that line came out. Maggie Shayne, Evelyn Vaughn -- I think there were a few other authors I first read there (but too braindead to think of them now).

so, when Will explains how the value thingy works can you then explain it to the rest of us?
Don't feel bad, it took me a while to find Keishon again too.

Meljean - thanks for the heads up. :> Have you read Amanda Stevens's SS books?
Nicole - cheers, mite!
Tara Marie - Will has just explained that the value is based on Technorati's measurement of a number of links/traffic. [Confused? Yeah, me, too] If I got him right, if your blog gets a link *from* a blog that has high traffic, the value of your blog increases because your blog has better chances of being seen by a wider audience. That's what I think Will means, anyway. :)

I do remember Amanda Stevens -- one in particular was about a model...(duh, I can go to the link you provided and find the title) THE PERFECT KISS! Anyway, I still am surprised that it ended with a return to human instead of to vampirism -- at the time, I don't think I liked that ending (Linda Lael Miller had a couple like that, too, IIRC, and my 16-year-old vampire-loving brain couldn't accept it). Now, I think, I'd be much more open to such an ending.
The other two AS on that list -- the titles sound familiar, but I'd probably have to see the cover to actually remember. Stupid brain.

Meljean - I just finished reading Amanda Stevens's DARK SHADOW. My verdict? I feel sorry for trees. I have a similar problem - I'm crap at remembering titles, but where book covers are concerned? I have a near-photographic memory. Which is quite pathetic, really, isn't it?
I mean, I would have thought that if I could remember a cover very well, then I should able to remember book title and name on it as well, shouldn't I? One of little mysteries that I'll never figure out, I think.
