Book tour: Blue Like Play Dough by Tricia Goyer
Woohoo! Time to giveaway another book. Aren’t you excited?
The book: Blue Like Play Dough. Author: Tricia Goyer, whom I happen to follow on that crazy time suck machine Twitter. Trisha is always tweeting mundane bits of her life, how she hates to cook and go to Walmart.
Er.. Monica those are your tweets. Tricia lives to shop at Walmart, is a great cook and has three teenagers, so her life isn’t boring. In fact, she’s like a Super Woman – she’s a teen mentor, novelist and missionary. Why can’t you be more like her, huh? Huh?
Oh, shut up.
That’s lovely. Tricia Goyer would never say shut up. She’s a PERFECT CHRISTIAN.
Wait a minute, Crazy-Monica-Voice-in-My-Head, I’ve read Tricia’s book and she’s not a perfect Christian! I have the proof – her book, Blue Like Play Dough – very encouraging to folks like us. You know, Christ follower, wife, mom, home schooler, and writer. Sometimes she screws up, but she keeps on going, letting the Lord mold her like a lump of play dough.
You do love those dashes, don’t you? You need an editor. Maybe you could hire Tricia.
ARGH!!! Go away, Crazy Monica!! I just want to tell my friends about Tricia’s book, how encouraging it is and to leave a comment if they want a chance to win a copy.
Whatever. Aren’t you going to start dinner? I bet Tricia can cook, write a smashing good blog post and lead an expository Bible study all at the same time. And her kids would never interrupt.
You’re not listening to me, Crazy Monica. Weren’t you paying attention when I read her book?
Uh. What book?

Leave a comment to win Blue Like Play Dough. Use the Tweet This for an extra chance (and because you love me!) Then go follow Tricia on Twitter cause her tweets are really much more entertaining than mine.

I don’t need to enter for the giveaway, but I started chuckling as I read your crazy-talk to yourself. Used to be a stand-up comic back in the day named, well, Monica who would do the “anybody here ever . . . ” bit, to which she’d always be greeted with silence and would do this deep echoing “No, just you, Monica” into the microphone. I’m pretty sure reading this here that you just had to be there, but your post gave me a good laugh anyway. Have a great evening.
