Ever wish you had a wise friend with experience in the publishing/writing world who could give you advice? Ever get down and discouraged about your writing or the chances of actually getting published? Ever just need a pep talk or a word of encouragement? Then you need to be following Jody Hedlund!
Jody is a fellow Michigander, so I may have been partial to her to start with, but after being inspired and educated by so many of her posts, I knew she was a gem, no matter where she lived 🙂
She posts regularly on her blog –Â I have no idea how she comes up with such great topics or where she gets the time to write them all, but I am so grateful she does! On her site, Jody also has a huge list of articles for writers, all helpful and insightful. You could spend hours or days going through them all. And the best thing about them is her writing style – kind, informative and supportive. It really is like talking with an old friend.
You should definitely give her a follow – both on her blog and on Twitter.
Today’s Perfume: Clean – Shower Fresh
Shower Fresh
The quintessential soapy, fresh-from-the-shower clean scent is a soft and sexy musky floral, that’s not overwhelming or pretentious. This pure, clean fragrance blends natural notes of Lily of the Valley with lemon and mandarin orange.
Notes:
Lemon, Mandarin, Orange, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley (Muguet), Orange Blossom, Sheer Woods, Musk.
My Thoughts: This is one of those perfumes I didn’t expect to like, but found myself sniffing all day. It has crazy staying power, and lasts forever. Which is both a good and bad thing. Good because it smells nice – soft, floral and clean. Bad because it makes me sneeze! It’s a soft skin scent – not overpowering at all and perfect for when you want people to think you just naturally smell good. Unfortunately, I won’t be buying a bottle for myself because of the sneezing problem, but I’d definitely recommend it for a nice, light summer scent. Even better, it’s available in a $20 rollerball if you want to check it out before committing!
Where to buy: Sephora
