Neat Stumbles & SFAP – Rinda Elliott

I’m a member of Stumble Upon. I don’t use it for networking or chatting because I have this blog for that sort of thing. Have Myspace, too, but yeah, that place still kind of gets on my nerves. For some reason, 14 year-old boys hit me up for friendship daily. Lots of them. Not sure about that.

I just keep a Stumble Upon account to keep in touch with some artist friends of mine. But the other night, I needed a break and went stumbling. It’s pretty cool. You load the button in your toolbar and just click. It takes you to sites that other stumblers have enjoyed. There are so many creative and visually stunning sites out there!

Here are some fun ones.

There are a lot of sites with free online books. At first, I sweated that a bit. Writers would be out of business if we couldn’t earn a living. But, though I haven’t spent a lot of time searching, it looks like classics mostly–probably from authors that can no longer benefit from sales. Here are two.:)

This is a cool site. You type in a book and author and get recommended reads. http://www.whatshouldireadnext.com/

I entered Stray by Rachel Vincent and got these!

Visually stunning! Imagine doing all that work on something that doesn’t last.

And yes, it’s the fifteenth and we didn’t have any SFAP entries for the Ice Man. No worries–not all pictures will spark interest and we are all very busy right now. But, here is the next image for our writing inspiration. See this page for details!
