Warner Books has a new name--Grand Central Publishing! So now, the Warner Women Blog needs a new name too. Think you're up for the challenge?
Suggest a new name for the blog. Just enter it in the comments section below (click on "comment" and go for it.) If you're the first one to suggest the name that gets picked, you'll win five free books and this awesome Grand Central hat, modeled here by Fuzzy, the diet Coke addict bear.
The name doesn't have to be a riff on Grand Central to win the contest. In fact, some of our fav blog names (trashionistas, literary chicks) have great names without including the publisher name. But then, there are the Avon Ladies, who do use their publisher's name and do it quite well. Anything goes in this contest!
I am VERY jealous of whoever wins, as these are some awesome free books to win. And the hat's not bad either.
(These books are in fact, all the same size. I just stole the covers from all over the place and they came out different sizes. Sorry about that.)
Anyway, have fun and play nice! Or better yet, don't play nice...
Good luck! We'll pick a winner May 18th.

Ain't Love Grand
I hate to say it, but Polly's nailed it. AIN'T LOVE GRAND is the perfect blog title.
LB at Author, Author!
...grumbling over the loss of books...::g::
Thank you ever so kindly!
Well, maybe Polly nailed it. Maybe not. It'll be up to our crack team of highly trained judges (who will try not to drink too many martinis before they choose a winner).
Ain't Love Grand is a super riff on another suggestion, earlier, Ain't It Grand. Which just goes to show that there might be some magic in the suggestions already made to make them better.
I still have a name in the back of my head that no one's suggested...although it might not beat Polly's...

I would vote for combining Polly's and Sharon's ideas. You could be the Grand Dames of the Ain't Love Grand blog.
Wow, that's an interesting idea. Would they have to fight it out over the hat?
Again, since it's not up to me, but to the judges (and I hear the Russian judge is a stickler and the French judge can be bribed, FYI), I'll pass the idea by them.
And keep the ideas coming. I know there's still one or two out there that could be magic...

Hey, there,
I'm not entering the blog-naming contest (too brain-fried), but want to ask... I'm looking to read some Warner/Central authors who have Michele Bidelspach as their editor, as I have an appt with Michele at National. The Warner books I have in my reading pile that thank their editor in the acknowledgements mention Melanie Murray.
Any Michele authors want me to buy their books? :) Please email me from my website or answer here. My TBR pile needs you!

Hey, thanks Ashley. Next time, I'm going to get reader help for the title. This time (like all times) I wait too long and then my editor says, hey, we need a title FAST. Luckily, she always comes up with something brilliant. The next book after Sexiest Man Alive is going to be Hungry for More.
More what?
More blog names, baby!
We're announcing a winner on Friday, so any last entries, speak now.
The judges are fighing it out now (although new additions are always welcome...) and let me tell you, it's getting ugly. Think figure skating. Think pro wrestling.
No. Ugh. Don't think that.
Have a great day,
