Hello everyone, I know I've told you all that I'm taking a break from Twitter, Facebook and blogging to put focus on finishing book #2 and #3, but I have to share with you another web gem. I stumbled upon a talented singer on YouTube one evening and his voice just blew me away. His name is Drew Dawson Davis .

Those of you waiting to hear the name of my “MG” book, I have not decided on a title just yet. I have some ideas, but I am not telling anyone what they are (except for two people so far).

I would like to wish a Merry Christmas to all my readers. I hope everyone is having a safe and warm holiday. You all have a special place in my heart and I appreciate your continued visits to my blog. I try to entertain you in a variety of ways by writing short stories, passing along news and (my personal favorite blog posts) Web Gems. I hope you've enjoyed my writing throughout the past year. Please feel free to leave me a comment or send me an email to let me know your thoughts, ideas for stories, and/or websites you want me to check out. (You can even leave a complaint, if you feel the need to do so, but I won’t guarantee that I will listen to it.) ;) Today’s blog are more Web Gems, so gather the kids around the computer for this first link. How about we start with something cute? Here is a video of a precious puppy trying to whistle. http://video.yahoo.com/watch/6544400/16989568 I think this dog may have a shot at Hollywood.
