Thursday Thirteen #45 -- One




I'm a novelist. We all know this about me, and it's part of the reason why you love me. But... that also means that my Thursday Thirteens can get long.

Not today.

Thirteen words ShapeShifter loves to hear:


1. Platinum
2. Sell-out (as in: tickets)
3. Tour
4. royalties
5. Interview
6. girls
7. Headliner
8. dinner
9. guitars
10. singles
11. awards
12. beer
13. sleep

Be sure to check out Robin and Milan this week -- there's more ShapeShifter! (hover over Milan's West of Mars graphic!)


Links to other Thursday Thirteens!





Get the Thursday Thirteen code here!


The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

I'm confused ... where are the comments? Are you lazy Susan to approve them or they are so dirty so you censored them ... But that would be so NOT ShapeShifter :whip:

Oh and I love when they love TOUR!!!

That's the point, Milan!

Phew! That was short. I love dinner, platinum too.
Mine is up too.

LOL, those are all excellent words for fellows in a rock band, I'm sure -- especially #13; I bet they don't get a whole lot of that. :-D

Happy T13, my friend!

No real surprises there, although not every band loves interviews perhaps. :-)
My TT shares Thirteen (quotes from) lyrics by Robbie Williams.

I also like numbers 8 and 13. Happy TT.

Is this your shortest 13, ever?

Shouldn't that say Girls, Girls, Girls? Maybe I am thinking of Motley Crue. LOL!
# posted by Anonymous Anonymous : September 05, 2007 8:07 PM
 
Yep, that was the Crue, and yep, it was a good song and yep, this is my shortest yet.

I wanted to see if I could do it. Almost did; that sell-out got me.

Those are all beautiful words to rockers.

Happy TT!

This was perfect, Susan! I admit I laughed when I saw that 'girls' didn't arrive on the list until #6. This must have been a challenge. I wonder if a few TTers will try their own version of it in future...?

Dinner, did someone say dinner? I am glad they said girls and not groupies, they were beginning to worry me! Happy short thirteen!
# posted by Blogger Jenny McB : September 05, 2007 9:58 PM
 
LOL! Good list - i so agree with #13 right now.
# posted by Anonymous Anonymous : September 05, 2007 10:11 PM
 
gee, I'm surprised beer isn't higher on the list??! Or is it not organized by most important to least important??
Great TT Susan!

Totally out of order, Lara!

Yes -- I can see how they'd like the word "royalties". You too, I bet. :P

Happy TT.

Love the short list. Love that you're a novelist with a joie d' vivre! I'm playing along this week too.

I love that you included dinner. Gotta know where your next meal is coming from after all!

My TT is short (and sarcastic) this week too ... comments educators wish they could use.

Happy TT!
# posted by Anonymous Anonymous : September 06, 2007 1:36 AM
 
The shortest one I've seen of yours.

What, no smartass remarks from the bandmates? What's up with them? :-)

#13 is what I need more of right now...
# posted by Blogger Danika Dinsmore : September 06, 2007 3:34 AM
 
I could use that last one myself here. :)

Always great to swing by here, Susan.

They all make perfect sense to me.

Now, are you feeling ok? You being brief worries me :-}

I'm a fan of royalties as well. I had to check twice to make sure I was on the right site...it was short...HUGS!!

I'm pretty fond of Platinum too. As in Platinum setting, platinum necklace, platinum earrings. ;)

Rhian, Trevor LIKES being in trouble, remember?

Cool list, I also like 8 and 13 (especially 13 *g*). And 4 is something I'd certainly like to try. Happy TT.

I love it! If I ran the world, they'd get plenty of all of those. :)

And bras.
(That one was for Rhian btw.)

Never did get the linkie to work?

As someone who used to be in a band or three, I'd say those are very good words. :)

Happy TT

My eyes shot right down to the word dinner, Susan. :-) One of my favorite topics--and activities. LOL
# posted by Blogger Daisy Dexter Dobbs : September 06, 2007 11:15 AM
 
There are several things on this list that the guys have in common with this author's favorite words: Sell out--LOVE to hear one of my books completely sold out its run!(Of course this isn't possible for my ebooks--but one day!)

Awards? Love 'Em!

Royalties? A definite biggy!

Interviews are actually alot of fun.

Dinners a wonderful way to celebrate a sale.

Sleep? something that I cna't even remember the meaning of!

Have a great weekend Babe!
Huggles,
Donica

Those are "music" to any bands ears...aren't they. Great list!

I figured sex would be on the list but I guess girls implies that. ;)
# posted by Blogger cheesygiraffe : September 06, 2007 5:00 PM
 
Yep.

You know, the guys aren't really into each other. So to speak.
# posted by Blogger Susan Helene Gottfried : September 06, 2007 5:01 PM
 
Wow - a really short one! What happened?
I'm all about #4, 11 and 13 :)
Especially 13.
# posted by Blogger Wylie Kinson : September 06, 2007 5:59 PM
 
Who new I had to much in common with Trevor and the gang! I really like to hear words 1, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 AND 13. That's more than half! Woah. 8-)

Happy TT13!

Fun list this week, Susan. Platinum! I can totally see a band compiling a list like that. Mind you, there would be a few arguments...
Happy TT!

I'm late making the rounds, so have a good weekend!
