and look where she got the idea!!
Dear Janet,
You've inspired me! In early January, you blogged about Jennifer Jackson, calling her a "maassketeer." That name stirred up a creative fire, and the next thing I knew, I'd made a video.
(You may recognize a guest appearance from Lara Zielin, of "editing letter" fame.)
Anyway...enjoy, sing along if you like, and thank you for the inspiration.
Sincerely,
Margaret Yang
I feel exactly the same way I do when I open a client novel and see the acknowledgments page: THRILLED!!!

LOLOLOLOL! Did she really throw those books? I yelped when I saw that. Haha. Wouldn't it be nice if Don really did have Maassketeers seeking us out like that?
Loverly video! Thanks for the laugh. :)
If my boss looked over, he would've thought something was amiss. I'm horrified in a totally awesome way.
CLASSIC!
Forever let us hold our banner high! ROTFL
This made me laugh, but in an uncomfortable way, as I think I'm a Maassketeer. They're extraordinarily helpful books, and if you try the exercises--whoops, there I go again. :)
I watched this and had to let Don know. I emailed him the link. He watched it and emailed me back to let me know. Great job!
@Lydia Sharp,
No books were harmed in the making of this video.
Nice post, thanks for sharing this wonderful and useful information with us.

As a died-in-the wool Maasketeer, I found this video hysterical. Thanks for the laugh. I needed one today.
I have uploaded a sharper, HD version of Maassketeers
You have THE most creative followers. Thanks for the smiles.
Pure awesomesauce. I've blogged about the religious transformation I experienced after reading The Donald's "Writing the Breakout Novel Workbook." He really has sacrificed himself for us lesser peasants and I, for one, thank him. (Please, sir, may I have some more?)
Ooh, I'm so glad Margaret cleared that up!
Janet-you seem to like funny YouTube clips. Wondered if you'd seen the Parnell Hall video?

Look forward to meeting you at Malice. I'll just look for the fin...

Cute :)
Laugh out loud funny. Thanks for sharing!
This is such a cute video! So much fun.
I've been pushing the cult of Donald for a while now because his book speaks to me and makes a lot of sense.
Uh-oh, there I go proselytizing again.
Very funny-- thanks for posting it!
