WRIGHTING REVOLUTION: GUILTY PLEASURES

So, I was at an event a week or so ago, and someone asked me what my "guilty pleasure" was. I knew what she meant but, I gotta admit, I really thought about it later. Why should I feel guilty about something that pleases me? I think what she meant, too, was what is the thing I do that I wouldn't necessarily want anyone else to know that I do?? Well, there are several, I don't feel guilty about none of them, LOL! Here are a few, in no particular order...

1. PEOPLE MAGAZINE: Yes! I just wrote a very literary book (BUTTERFLY RISING), made a movie and all that jazz. But, the truth is, I often read PEOPLE MAGAZINE just to relax my mind! Yes, I do! I even have a button where it comes up quick, fast and in a hurry on my Blackberry. Now, there's been a fair amount of coverage on Butterfly Rising book/movie, but my all-time favorite article appeared in peoplepets. com. Take a look:


That's right. It was the article about my dog that warmed my heart the most. Look at my little Macarena! She's looking square into the camera (unlike me. What was I thinking, LOL!), ready for her close-up. Woof!

2. Here's the thing: I don't know what it is, but I. LOVE. INFOMERCIALS!! Yes! The folks that host them are usually so COMMITTED and so relentlessly enthusiastic about the products they're hawking, I usually peel myself away from the TV just long enough to ask myself how could I live another day without this product??? I will admit though, I have NEVER purchased anything advertised in an infomercial (I really DO want to try out that juicer and the WEN haircare system. I know a person who purchased the FLOWBEE--the hair device where you cut your hair using your vacuum cleaner?-- and it works! It really works!!) Go figure!!!

3. WENDY WILLIAMS SHOW: I LOVE this woman! Everything about her is BIG and FUN!!! She always looks like she's smiling on the inside, which is a rare and wonderful thing. I love her outfits, I love her hair. And the thing is, although she's always dishing on celebs, there isn't anything mean-spirited about her. She usually asks the things people REALLY want to know. Also, in her ASK WENDY segment, she always gives sound, sturdy, common sense advice, not at all what you'd expect form someone whose personality is so...big! Anyway, love you Wendy, and I hope to sit down on the couch and chat wit'cha one day soon:)

These are just a few of my pleasures. And I don't feel guilty about none of 'em.

XO T :)
