Thank you SO much, Jessica!! I'm sipping coffee with you in spirit. And is that a picture of my fave big mustache in your sidebar–Hall & Oates? Sarah…Smile! 🙂
And I'm eating a giant cookie in celebration with you! Great way to start my day!:) And I can't answer any of the above questions because I chose going through life w/o answering questions…already it's bugging me.
Haha!! Yeah, that question was downright depressing! What kind of cookie are you nibbling? (I love cookies!!)
I would rather work really hard at an interesting job
I am SO with you, Robin! Being bored doesn't excite me!
I would say I'd rather go through a hurricane with loved ones than a tornado alone.
Same here, Becky! Who wants to be alone in a terrible storm? Not me!!
Congratulations Jill! The book sounds awesome! I love to read good romance and this one sounds like a winner. Thanks Jessica for sharing Jill ' s book with us
Thank you, Dana!! I love to read romance, too! Do you have a favorite author?
Hi Jill! Congratulations on the release of your first book, Small-town Bachelor. This series looks really good and I can't wait to read them. I would rather be stuck in a hurricane with my loved ones because I don't like being alone when disaster strikes.
My poison is coffee and chocolate. I'm drinking my coffee right now while reading your guest post on Jessica's blog. Have a good day.
Hi Rebecca! Pass me a cup of that coffee! It's snowing here. Snowing! UGH! Yeah, I do not want to be alone in any kind of disaster. Thank you!!
Congrats, Jill! So happy for you!
Thank you, Loree!! I hope you aren't like us today–getting snow! Yuck!!
Congrats on your book Jill! It sounds like a great one! Oh, and I just had a cup of hot vanilla chai tea & some peanut butter sandwich cookies to nibble on as I read this.
There's a couple of those questions I'm not touching…I mean really…pain or itch….hmmmm….LOL!! But I would rather be with someone you love in a hurricane & work hard at an interesting job. And the question one…not touching that one…I wouldn't want to do either…I mean, I'm such an inquisitive person anyway…lol! I NEED questions asked & answered..haha!!
This was great fun getting to know a new-to-me author and some laughs along the way…oh & cookies of course! Thank you for the chance to win a copy of "Small Town Bachelor", sounds like a great book! Congrats again Jill & blessings!
