If I ever wish to get published, I guess I need to spend less time blogging and more time working on my manuscript, "Mrs. Zimmerman's Donuts." I was inspired to write this book from Halloween memories as a kid. My mother had repeatedly told me not to eat ANYTHING unwrapped. Being ridiculously obedient, each year I skipped gooey pieces of grease on a plate of powdered sugar. Boy was I a dumb kid!
Years later my mom said, "Well, you could have eaten something unwrapped from Mrs. Zimmerman."
Why didn't you tell me that sooner, Mom? Since it's too late for me to go back and down a donut--having moved to another city and given up sugar--I invented a character named Knob. He wears a buzz cut that makes his head look like a door knob. Unlike me, Knob has a wild Mohawk wearing buddy who will teach him how to break the rules with style.
I hope one day you'll be able to visit your local bookstore and pick up a copy of "Mrs. Zimmerman's Donuts." Until then, read my blog.
Thanks for sticking around for the AtoZ Challenge. Tomorrow I will be participating in the six sentence Sunday. Now what am I supposed to write about throughout the rest of May? Please come back because I know I'll figure something out.

I like the name of your book. Good luck with it. Please find my latest A-Z Challenge blogs here: http://myheartblogstoyou.blogspot.com/
Congratulations on making it through A-Z all the way! I still have to think about what I'm going to write about for the month of May myself!
Yes, I need to spend less time blogging too...PARTICULARLY less than I spent this last month. LOL.
What will we write about now? I'm sure we will all think of something. I have missed a few of my regular memes I participate in so I will be happy to let them know I am still here.
Can you believe it is May 1. Why is it raining?
Thanks to everyone for stopping by. I have a finished trip and decided to go for an extension with the Z-A in May writing challenge. http://www.writewrongorindifferent.com Come join us.
Funny thing about May, there we days in the challenge when I couldn't think of anything for the letter, and I longed for May when I could write what ever I wanted, now I have no idea what that is either. Congrats on getting to Z and I can't wait to be able to buy a copy of your book. Send this post to Mrs. Zimmerman and maybe she will send you a donut.
I also think you should rest ...
