I found it here
I think we might need a contest along these lines, don't you?
Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.
If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.
Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.
If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
Yes! Extreme awesomeness.
ReplyDeleteMs. Mafi is nothing short of brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try that, though all I can see from where I'm currently sitting is a tall stack of my MILs Harlequin romances. They're creating a somewhat . . . earthier poem.
If you have a contest along those lines I concede because I cannot approach the opposing shores of that level of awesome.
ReplyDeleteOh, definitely! It'd be even cooler if the titles had to be books that you own.
ReplyDeleteWow that is incredible.
ReplyDeleteMost definitely!
ReplyDeleteYay! Always in favor of contests!
ReplyDeleteSo what shall it be?
Write a poem using only the titles of the Sharky One's clients' books?
or
Describe your WIP using only the titles of published novels?
or
Predict the next "it" creature (vampthingy, merthingy, werethingy) and write a dedicated ode using existing titles about said thingy?
or
Ode to the QueryShark... using only oceanic titles?
Love this! More please.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Thanks for reposting!
ReplyDeleteCONTEST! CONTEST! CONTEST! (to the chant of Toga, Toga, Toga)
ReplyDeleteYes, what a great idea, and I like the caveat of using one's own books, but as my free time is vanishing INTO THIN AIR until I get all my parent-teacher interviews done on Friday, can I BEG FOR MERCY?
ReplyDeleteAs Roger Rabbit used to say, P..P...Please.

I would definitely have to try that.
ReplyDelete@ Josin
ReplyDeleteI like all of of your suggestions!
Ms. Mafi is made of win.
ReplyDeleteThat's brilliant! Love it!
ReplyDeleteSo disappointed. When I read the title of this post I thought it was about me. (I also believe in unicorns and that Sarah Palin is super-smart.)
ReplyDeleteOh, and the poem? Like you, it's awesomely awesome.
Love it!
ReplyDeleteThat was fantastic! :D
ReplyDeleteComposing something from our own books would not only be original, but it would also be a personal tribute to the authors we love. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteThe moment I saw this I looked at my book shelf.
ReplyDeleteThe Georgette Heyer books almost make a poem as they stand and the fantasy and crime shelves are not far behind.
I never noticed. Thanks for showing me.
I have to leave another comment:
ReplyDeleteIf you do a contest, please don't make it books we own. Some of us only "own" what we can borrow from friends, what's in the local library or what's available through Project Gutenberg.

ReplyDeleteYOU are amazingness.
That is exceptional.
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun, count me it!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try this!!! First thing after I get home from work tomorrow I'm going to start rummaging through my book shelves!!
ReplyDeleteYes, something like that would be a great contest.
