http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Blogging4Books-Announce/ For those interested Blogging for Books has a fun topic for this months competition.

Since Off The Record is about a plain, predictable, responsible woman named Jane Marlow who discovers that a one-hit wonder 12 years ago was written about HER, this month's topic should be about your close personal relationship, real or imagined, with a song. If you, like me, are dead inside and have no close personal relationships with songs, I suggest you lie. You could, for example, write about your close, personal relationship with your childhood dog, and substitute "Tainted Love by Soft Cell" for her name. This will inevitably lead to sentences like, "Ah those halcyon days running through the meadows with Soft Cell's Tainted Love gamboling innocently beside me..." and "Tainted Love by Soft Cell brought back the stick no matter how many times I threw it." But that's what you get for being dead inside.

B4B closes at MIDNIGHT your time next Monday.

I'm going back and forth between a couple songs but hope to have an entry for this one. I never win but I have fun getting the creative juices flowing. So, if you aren't a subscriber to B4B but love to write you might want to check them out.
