Confession time. This post has nothing to do with writing or reading.
I just gotta say it: I love rings.
And not ordinary ones.
Crazy, kitschy, funky rings. Big and loud.
I’ve spent too much time trying to act my age. And why? I’m a picture book author! I should be able to wear Legos on my fingers, right? And polymer clay sushi. And dictionaries. Yes, dictionaries.
Let your inner goofball shine!

Tara,
So you are adding more rings to your collection? And I thought the Lego ring was the winner! I think the POW! one would work well for me. What do you think? 🙂

This post has everything to do with writing / reading…because it brings the fun inspiring us to write with innocence and read in the pursuit of enjoyment.
I love the LEGO and POW rings. Where does one purchase such crafty little diddies?

Hey, good comment, Crave! You’re so right!
I should have linked the photos to Etsy–that’s where you can buy them. Search etsy.com.

Awesome! I love them!! I’m all for inner-goofball shining through. I wear crazy socks. I have no time to match socks to my outfit, so I wear Valentine socks and snowman socks and monkey socks and so on. Yay for silly!

Totally cool beans, Tara! (and yes, I still use that expression all the time!)
I’m not much of a jewelry wearer, but I love funky t-shirts. The kind with old bands, funky “sayings” or shirts that are obviously cool beans. We found one for my daughter that said, “You’re so vain, I bet you think this shirt is about you.”
I wish I was her size. I’d sneak it out of her drawer! 🙂
BTW – you are being featured over on the Write2ignite “Thrift and Gift” blog. Linda Andersen has some awfully nice things to say about your blog and critiques! (http://write2igniteblog.write2ignite.com/2011/01/27/thrift-and-gift.aspx)

LOL! I just got in trouble with my husband for having too much “silly” fun. 😦 I could soooo wear that Lego ring!
