You won’t believe this but Snoop got his first piece of mail today.
SNOOP SAYS:
For me? It’s for me?! Wow!!!!
Hey, do I have to wait until Christmas to eat it? Huh, huh?!
Maybe I could just start with the envelope…
YUMMY!!!!!
IN OTHER NEWS:
If you haven’t voted for Snoop’s best carols 2006, get on it. Enjoy what your fellow writers have shared with all of us this holiday season.
Alright, folks, tune up the singing voice in your head, OR sing them out loud. We need two winners! One from the new-tiquee category and one from the re-tiquee category. Votes must be placed by 11:59PM CST. Place them by commenting below with the appropriate numbers. Good luck, contestants (you may also vote, but please don’t vote for your own. No cheating)! In the event of a tie, Snoop will decide.
FOR A HOLIDAY FREE-TIQUE? (READ RULES FIRST BEFORE EMAILING)
It’s Friday night. The perfect time to admit you have nothing better to do than win a free-tique slot. I am only giving two away. One for a new-tiquee, one for a re-tiquee (see my free-tiques page on my website if you don’t know what I mean). To win, you must re-write at least one STANZA of any holiday song for Snoop, about Snoop, (cuz he really likes that kind of stuff).
Well if this isn’t another piece of fabulous news from one of my esteemed critique buddies! Who had any doubt she’d hit yet another homerun in the picture book category?! (that makes three, in the last twelve months, baby. Count ’em. THREE! Holy cow.) And they said the PB market was bad. WhatEVER!
IN OTHER NEWS:
Who wants a free-tique for Christmas to celebrate Tammi’s good news? GET READY. Doors are not open just yet. But they will open today.
IN OTHER NEWS:
Look, guys, I’m back. Just wanted to say…five vet visits, thirty-six dumplings, and a 20-hour plane trip later, things are finally under control.
IN OTHER NEWS:
If you’re a free-tique winner and waiting for a tique from me, please drop me a note and attach the latest version of the work. If nothing has changed, drop me a note anyway so I can find your original email. Thanks!
SNOOP SAYS:
My paw hurts, I hate my medicine, and I don’t want to go to the vet again (her hands are cold). Please brighten my spirits by sending “get well soon” gifts to Snoop AT cynthealiu DOT com.
Due to recent events, all free-tiques will not be completed until after November 18th. I deeply apologize for the delay. Snoop says he misses you all. Thank you.

Popping in to announce the winners from Snoop’s breakfast today.
The numbers are….*drum roll please*…#5, #14, #20
Congratulations! Please see previous post and free-tiques for redemption rules.
People, will you quit it with the good news?!
I have one more announcement to make. David Yoo’s GIRLS FOR BREAKFAST is out in paperback. If you haven’t read this book, well WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? This one is a must-buy, must-read! And NO, Dave and I are not related (but we might look alike.) And yes, he did pay me to say this–somewhere there’s a free fountain pen in it for me.
And now Yoo’s brilliant novel can be yours for $5.99.
