Today is Monstrous Monday!
(For PIP blog tour update, please scroll below)
To see the official rules, join, or follow the participants, go HERE.
It's simple. Just post your favorite monster. One you like, love or hate. It could be from your own novel or someone else's or from a movie - anything!
I don't care for the really scary monsters, because, well, they're scary!
But I do adore the Fun-Scary monsters.
And so today, my feature monster is...
Sally!
Why do I luurve her? She is just so sweet - and talented.
She can cook...
If she falls apart...
She can sew herself back together...
She can sing...
And that's why Jack Skellington loves her, too!
Are you participating in the blogfest?
What is your favorite monster?
**************************
Now, on to more blog tour information...
Thank you to Tyrean Martinson for hosting me and Angela last Friday. We appreciate your hospitality ever so much!
Today we're over at Dianne Salerni's blog talking about Real Case Partners in ParanormYA files. That's right, real paranormal stuff that's happened to us.
And of course, we still have our blogsitting teens over at Partners in ParanormYA, holding down the fort. We hope they're behaving after last weeks revenge scheme against the Devourer (Neverlove) and the Dark Shadow! (Givin' Up The Ghost).
There is still a giveaway going on over at PIP, so please stop by.
I'm not participating in the Monstrous Monday blogfest but I must say you've chosen a unique one :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping the girls are doing okay over at PIP HQ. They've been the adventurous ones since we started out blogtown tour lol!!
Thanks Angela - I love Sally. She's my favorite character on The Nightmare Before Christmas.
DeleteI be over at PIP shortly to check on the kids!
And who doesn't like a woman that can put herself back together?
ReplyDeleteAlex, I know. Such a handy skill, lol!
DeleteI wish I could sew myself back together again. And no, I'm not doing this particlar blog hop. I've been ordered to pace myself.
ReplyDeleteHugs and chocolate,
Shelly
Shelly, if you've been ordered, then it's definitely a good idea!
DeleteSuch a great choice, Sally, a woman any monster or non-monster could love! Next blog hop should be a tribute to all female monsters -- Sally could be the honorary host!
ReplyDeleteYolanda, I truly think that's a great idea!
DeleteThere are so many wonderful monsters out there that aren't scary. Sally is a great choice!
ReplyDeleteT, you are so right. Monsters don't always have to be scary. They can be fun and nice and have morals, too!
DeleteI LOVE Sally! She is wonderful and every time I see a purple nightshade while out hiking I think of her. :)
ReplyDeleteElisa, lol! Is purple nightshade what she used to drug the doctor? *sigh* But what's a ghoul to do?
DeleteYes! I have recently learned our local plants and that one was easy to remember. She is why I knew it was poisonous. We learn good stuff from movies sometimes :)
DeleteLOL, of course we learn lots of stuff from movies:)
DeleteThe idea of being able to sew yourself back together is pretty creeptastic. I've gotta say. Excellent monster choice.
ReplyDeleteS.L., creeptastic it is! Even so, Sally is such a special ghoul:)
DeleteSally's too cute to be a monster. =) What a fun blogfest! If I'd been around the blog-o-sphere the last couple weeks I would have joined up for sure, but alas, there are only so many hours in the day... (And so much sugar in the bloodstream...) I love that your post is mostly pictures.
ReplyDeleteCrystal, I know! She is just so precious. And I thought I'd keep my post short, because there are a lot of stops to make:)
DeleteWhat not to love about Sally?
ReplyDeleteI love Nightmare Before Christmas. It is one of the best modern-day Christmas tales out there.
Thanks so much for joining my bloghop, I really appreciate it.
Tim
Tim, I agree. A modern classic, for sure. It's been a fun day. Thank you so much for hosting:)
DeleteThat's so kewl that she can sew herself together. If I could do that, I'd leave off a few pounds. Hmm, maybe double that.
ReplyDeleteJoylene, isn't she so talented?! And I'm with you, if I could do that, I'd leave more than a few pounds out of my body, lol!
DeleteExcellent pick Gwen from an excellent movie.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary. It's my Halloween night movie choice this year:)
DeleteYay! A monster that I actually liked! I mean...that didn't scare me to pieces. We need monsters like Sally to show us that the dark isn't so scary after all. :)
ReplyDeleteErin, me too! Sally's not scary at all - except maybe to a little kid, lol!
DeleteGreat pick for a sweet monster.
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan. I don't really do scary monster stuff. I'm a big chicken, lol!
DeleteGreat choice. I actually like this one!
ReplyDeleteDebra Ann, Sally is so sweet you have to like her:)
Delete'Tis the season for that movie - from now until Christmas. Not many holiday movies can claim two holidays.
ReplyDeleteDiane, that's right, it's suitable for both!
DeleteI love how Jack loves her too! Love this movie. I need to see it again.
ReplyDeleteMina, it's a classic romance. Once Jack opens his eyes and sees what's before him...the rest is history:)
DeleteOh, I do like Sally, she is a sweet fun-monster! I also adore the Corpse Bride.
ReplyDeleteJ.C., I like the Corpse Bride, too, and Tim Burton's style in general. It's very different, but fun-scary.
DeleteYay! Sally is wonderful. Speaking of which, I meant to watch Nightmare Before Christmas with my kiddos as their Halloween scare.
ReplyDeleteShannon at The Warrior Muse
Shannon, she certainly is. I've talking the hubs into watching it with me as our Halloween movie - with a little pumpkin carrot cake bribery:)
Deletegreat choice! love me some sally!
ReplyDeleteTammy, lol, I love me some Sally, too!
