The Magnificent Eight Blog Tour
Is coming to take you away… Sorry, couldn’t resist myself.
The name of the game is the peppermint twist… okay, really, I’ll stop now and get on with the regularly scheduled programming.
All this week, I’m blog touring with some pretty fan-f-ing-tastic authors! We’re asking each others questions and want all of you to play along. We ask a question on our blog. You answer it in our comments section and you’re entered to win a prize! At the end of the week, I’ll select a winner from those of you who have commented! Don’t forget to visit each of the other authors’ blogs (click their name and it will take you straight there) to answer their question as well for even more chances to win!
My question:
If you had to enter a competition for the "Most Uselessly Unique Talent," what would your talent be?
My answer: I can mimic the voices of the cast of The Wizard of Oz movie from the scene where you meet Glenda the Good Witch– Come Out, Come Out song right up Dorothy meeting the scarecrow. I’ve never been able to perfect the scarecrows voice. Clearly, I had too much time on my hands as a child and missed my calling as the front man for an all munchkin rock band.
Megan Hart: My most uselessly unique talent is: After drinking lemonade, I can drop spit in a runner from my mouth and suck it back up. Gross AND useless!
Joey W. Hill - I can screw up almost any computer-related gadget I touch in such a way that it will stump computer geniuses. My husband (who is a computer genius), assures me of this constantly. Usually as he’s rebooting for the tenth time and muttering vile curses beneath his breath.
Anya Bast: I can make up songs about anything, I mean anything…and I quite frequently do, much to my husband’s dismay. I use the melodies to well known songs like the theme from The Empire Strikes Back, for example, or Rigoletto, but I make up my own words. Heh.
Patrice Michelle: I can fold and roll my tongue all kinds of funky ways.
Lauren Dane: I’m utterly lame, I have no real talents. I can do a great Irish accent. Once Megan and I pretended to be Irish for two days in Las Vegas (much to Anya’s annoyance I’m sure). But it’s not unique!
Jaci Burton: I have a completely unique memory for useless old Hollywood trivia like where Bing Crosby is buried or what John Wayne’s real name is. Though it can be helpful in games like Trivial Pursuit or when my husband does the crossword puzzle.
(Its a super secret LOL)
