Reasons I Didn’t Write a Blog Today

  1. My best friend was here.
  2. We ate Mexican takeout and watched Lord of the Rings.
  3. The first day back at work after a long weekend is BRUTAL.
  4. I had a headache.
  5. I got a six-paragraph long rejection letter.

Blergh.

I’m sorry for this cop-out. I will be back with your regularly scheduled blogging next week. In the meantime, how was your weekend?

I’M BACK!!!

Hello fellow bloggers!

After an unexpectedly long summer hiatus, I am back! And better than ever. Even dealing with a heat wave and no AC.

I’ll be back with real blogs next week, so what topics would you like to see?

And how was your summer?

Top 5 Best Disney Stage Musicals (according to me)

So this is going to be my last blog for a few weeks (I’ll be back). I’m leaving for vacation in a week, and things are going to be hectic. Feel free to follow me over on Twitter (@edohertyauthor) for all of the vacation fun.

Where am I going, you ask? DISNEY WORLD. It’s pretty much my favorite place, and I am insanely excited.
So for today’s blog, I thought that I would rank my five favorite Disney stage musicals.  For the record, I love them all. But these ones hold special places in my heart. (NOTE: I have NOT seen all of these on Broadway. In fact, most of them have been regional productions or national tours.)

Book Bingo Books and Tropes

Flash Poll: Which hypothetical musical would you rather see?

Dear readers,

I need your help. I’m currently brainstorming future blogs and novels. As you could probably figure out from this blog, I am a big Broadway fan. In fact, my first series, which will be out later this year, centers around people who work on Broadway. I’m also looking forward to doing more Broadway dreamcasts.

So, for these future projects, I have a question for you. Would you rather see a hypothetical musical/dreamcast about:

1) The Kennedy family and their trials and tribulations

2) Expatriate writers in Paris in the 1920s (Hemingway, Stein, the Fitzgeralds, etc.)

Comment below with what you’d like to see.

Thank you so much!

Elizabeth
