As some of you know, I will be participating in the CBC version Test The Nation: Language Skills show. It is taping this Saturday in Toronto. I’m a member of the Romance Writers team and I’m psyched! Completely freaked out that I won’t be able to answer any questions, but psyched!!
The English language is a messed up but wonderful thing. I think you noticed the weirdness if you have children. The odd word combinations, and especially them trying to figure out how to pluralize words can be funny.
I’m glad there will be a large group of us there participating. If nothing else I’ll have fun with Amy, Vicky, Wylie and all the other TRW members. I’m also looking forward to meeting the group of writers that will be coming down from Ottawa. We’ll have giggles if nothing else.
Sounds like fun!
Good luck! When will it air?
Let’s just hope there isn’t a question about the collective word for asses. We’ll all be reduced to giggles and Amy will the only one to get the answer correct!
LOL I’d die I think, Wylie. Pace of Asses….
Good luck. When do we see it?
I can’t wait to see this! Don’t forget to give us a heads up for when it airs! And good luck with the language skills.
That is so awesome!!!! I’m going to see if I can find it to watch.
Pace of asses is all I will probably remember come Saturday.
I ALREADY have the giggles.:)
yo- Christine – you live in Canada, yes? I won Sasha White’s new book but i missed the part about having to be a resident of Canada. (speed reading at it’s worse) but Sash said she’d mail it on to a friend of mine in Canada. I think that’s you sweets. If interested email me your snail mail address so i can forward to her. My email is in my profile. xxx Rhi
