Here it is,Kim! I won't have it up for long. I don't want to get in trouble.
Let me know what you think!
In one of my novels (that I will totally self-pub under a pen name if I don't get an agent or get an agent but doesn't want to shop it) the MC's name is Shawn. And it's a girl. I love boy names for girls. Or at least names that have a boyish nick name. In my paranormal romance thriller my main character is Sam(antha). And in my current wip, the MC's bff is Alex (short for Alexandra). But I LOVE the name Shawn for a girl. I really love her. And her story. (dystop thriller)
I do love many of my character names which I will probably never get to use on actual children. My current favorite name is Malaki, a pale-skinned, blue-mohawked militant lesbian in my dystopia.
Very cool, kitty! is that you in the vid (and in your siggy)?
I think a good baby name is different than what you name a baby. I always liked the name Margo, but never got to use it because I have three boys. It seems one of those rare names that is cute for a baby and suitable for an adult.
You could play with this tool, Lisa. Just type in a name and you can see its popularity over the years. It is fun.

Love the book trailer. I think the hardest part would be finding the music and getting around the copyrights.
Sounds like a fun conference. Are you part of the Linguistic Society of America or the American Dialect Society? I want to join. LOL.
And I was hunting back to find my quote to nightowling with sympathy for the loss of her cat, because apparently, I was prophetic in worrying about my totally healthy boy. In the last 48 hours, he suddenly went from happy, healthy cat to being in kitty ICU. So now I'm waiting for news. It could be something totally treatable, or I may have to put him down, and they can't tell yet. Sad Jess.

Question for peeps who print off their MS for editing/revising.
What sort of formatting do you use? I'm looking to change things up, so it looks different to me, but I'd also like to save as much space as possible. I could puzzle around with it, but life is so much easier when others tell you the answers
I hope everyone is having a lovely Saturday.
