I really obsess over what to list under music because my tastes change so often and I listen to so many different things that I always have a hard time narrowing it down. And for a lot of musicians, I only like one or two songs and hate everything else they've done. So with that in mind, a few of the groups/musicians I currently listen to are: Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Fuel, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Howie Day, Lifehouse, Tom Petty, The Dandy Warhols, Shawn Mullins, The Perishers, Guns N' Roses, Silvertide, Kay's Choice, Blind Melon, The Fray, Eminem, Jewel, Garbage, Jonathan Cour
Movies
Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, 10 Things I Hate About You, Labyrinth, Willow, Elizabethtown, Clueless, The Princess Bride, Mallrats, Office Space, Romeo + Juliet, The Pest, The Goonies, Shrek
Television
Veronica Mars, Joan of Arcadia, Avonlea, CSI: Miami, Numb3rs, Family Guy, The Simpsons, Gilmore Girls, Criminal Minds, Sex and the City

I'm Shana Norris, author of the teen books Something to Blog About and Troy High.
I'm not nearly as overdramatic as my main character Libby is in Something to Blog About (although my husband says otherwise). I do, however, share my klutziness with Libby and can often be seen walking into walls or tripping over my own feet.
I currently live in a small town in eastern North Carolina, although I also still call South Florida home. My husband and I share our house with a hyperactive dog named Chloe and three cats who think they're human named Elmo, Callie, and Bandit.
Thank you for being a friend. I look forward to getting to know you.
As you may know, 2009 is Harlequin’s 60th anniversary and they are celebrating all year long. May is Harlequin Historical books Spotlight Month and there is so much going on. Watch for bulletins and blogs from me to keep up on everything. Plus, I have a contest this month in which you may win 3 SIGNED books and one unsigned book.
Do you like to read? I'd recommend Willow by Julia Hoban (summary in the About Me). It's out on April 2, and if you buy the book by April 30 you could win a ton of awesome prizes.
More details about the contest is in the right hand sidebar on this blog:
