GOATS HEAD SOUP (Giveaway)

Goats are about as scarce 'round the Ponderosa as front teeth on a back woods hillbilly. Farm Boy's daddy had a few curly horned wild critters climbin' the bluffs 'round here the first couple years of our moon~eyed marriage. There was the in and out goat Dad brought my young son. The one they prayed for under the table in Miss Judy's Primary Sunday School Class 'cause, "Mama was gonna kill it!"

Dad had purchased the wee goat from a industrious little fella at the sale barn in Eldorado Springs, Missouri thinkin' it would make an excellent pet for Geek Son. He hated it! The kid stepped on son's feet and butted him when he tried to bottle feed it plus the dang critter stripped the bark off all my strugglin' saplings. Poor little sale barn fellas heart was as broke as the Ten Commandments so Dad made the trip back, picked up the goat and returned it to it's rightful goatsick owner. Nope, no goats...we're all about crazed wild~eyed cattle here on the Ponderosa.

Now, Margaret Andrews over at 'Nanny Goats in Panties' is just wild as a pack of dogs with a three legged cat when it comes to goats. She's a freelance writer who lives in California with her handsome hubby, Mr. Mudpuppy. Margaret's amusin' blog will leave ya in stitches. In fact, she's hotter than a menopausal Nanny Goat in a pepper patch since she's been voted Best Local Blogger makin' KCRA's A-List in 2011. She's published folks. Yep, this sweet gal writes how to tutorials and presently writes for CBS Sacramento's website. Margret has even had a hand or two writing content for popular video games. You'll find her currently workin' on her screenplay and novel. All you cooks out there lookin' for new recipes must check out her goat recipe box. Just sayin'........
Do ya'll ever feel like growin' your blog and gainin' followers is kinda like nailin' jello to a tree? You work hard slaving over a hot computer writin' your little heart out but still feel it's like goin' to the goat house for wool? Well, I've got the perfect book for you!!!

Say you want your blog hotter than a Billy Goat with a blowtorch, just pick up Margaret's book "Sticky Readers: How to Attract a Loyal Blog Audience by Writing More Better." It's a lighthearted funny read yet heaped full of wonderfully useful bloggin' advice. Margaret sent me a copy since I'm in the book! Yep folks...this Ozark Farm Chick is now famous. I'm kinda in the don't section of metaphors and similes (pages 39-41) but accordin' to the expert I can get by with such overkill 'cause I'm Nezzy and it's just the way I fly!!!

That sweet generous Margaret has offered to give a signed copy of this most informative book to one of my readers. Thanks darlin'!!! To enter...just comment....easy peasy!!!

(This sweet little real life goatie belongs to the, The Maaaa of Pricilla )

Filled with hits like "Angie", "Silver Train" and "Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)", The Rolling Stones released their hit album August 20, 1973. This was after a move in 1972 to Jamaica 'cause it was one of the few places that would let 'em in. Seems bad boy Keith Richards was kicked outta nine countries and this was a way to keep the band together. Ya'll have got to read "Sticky Readers" to help keep cute little goats and your blog outta " Goats Head Soup !!!"

("Sticky Readers" can be purchased in paperback and Kindle versions at Amazon or Barnes & Noble)

  4. Wild-eyed cattle sound like enough to deal with. I have only had brief experiences with goats, but I think of them as sorta cute and very stubborn.
    Congrats on being famous in the book. It sounds like a good one.

  7. I find goats amusing when I am at a petting zoo, but I'm not sure how they are to live with. Looks like a great book and I love the title. Count me in too!

  8. Too bad you are not giving away a goat..I had one once..I loved him..I was his person. UNfortunately he kept hopping in the tourists boats and jumpin on their cars..so I had to drive him to a tourist trap so he could walk over a bridge to get treats..he was one of the "Gruffs" Gosh I miss that goat. Well put my name in the bucket! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Nezzy! I am thankful for you and your wonderful sense of humor:)

  9. When I was a reporter for my local paper, more years ago than I care to mention.... one of my first assignments was to interview a family that had a pet goat in a residential neighborhood. That article appeared on the front page. Needless to say I have a big 'ole soft spot for goats. LOL Being mentioned in that book, qualifies you as a celebrity amongst us bloggers. So exciting. Throw me into the giveaway pot. "Sticky Readers: How to Attract a Loyal Blog Audience by Writing More Better." sounds like the perfect Christmas gift. I can use all the help I can get. Take care, HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

  22. Raising goats has to be difficult. I've seen them in trees, on top of cars, etc. around here.

    I'll pass on the drawing - this Ol' Dog doesn't want to learn any new tricks. ;oD

  23. You are just as metaphorical as ever, Nezzy! And you crack me up as usual. I come here just to see what literary genius you've concocted for the day. Thank you for all your kind words about Sticky Readers and good luck to the winner. I hope I'm not throwing off your random drawing by commenting here since I'm assuming I'm not eligible. I'm not eligible, am I?

  44. Oh, Nezzy my friend. All I have to do is comment? I am the queen of comment. Love your blog. Going to read through it to see if you ever say how you got your name. Maybe it's a common name where you are from but unique to me. You make me happy.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Hi Nezzy, I was wondering why I wasn't seeing your blog on my Blog list as I thought that I had joined your herd but dog gone it, I hadn't. Well I remedied that in a jiffy and now I'm following your blog.

    I'm not surprised one bit that you are included in the book. Your blog is always interesting and you express yourself with so much energy that you could light up your whole neighborhood without even being on the grid.

    I'd love a chance at getting this book so please enter me in your give away if you ship to Canada.

    Happy Thanksgiving. Hugs, JB

    ReplyDelete
  46. Oh Nezzy, I need to write more better for sure! Speaking of writing, would you like to review my books or one of them with a giveaway for the Holidays? I can't remember if I already asked you that? Perhaps if I did write more better you would consider it eh? What a great book, I am going to check it out - I definitely think I need a copy of this!!!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I always feel guilty about not keeping up with the modest number of followers that I already have, but I would be curious to take a peek at Nanny's book :) Thanks.

  107. My daughter used to have a herd of 4-h dairy goats... sure loved those goats. I'll have to check out the blog. I am an undecided blogger when it comes to readership and comments. I was getting about 200 readers a day and lots of comments... more than I could answer and I opted out of blogging for a while. The readership calmed down... I guess I could just have turn the comments off and I guess I will have to just let people know I appreciate their comments but can't answer them all.

    ReplyDelete
  108. You do have a talent with words; always interesting and funny here. You do have a magic touch with your blog. Now, I am going to check Margeret to see if I can be inspired to have better blog.

  111. Hotter than a menopausal Nanny goat in a pepper patch? OK, that's one of my favoite Cow Pattie-isms. That perfectly describes ME.

    Not "hot" as in ooooh baby.
    That other hot, well, you know...

    I've been AWOL from blog land enjoying time with my daughters so I am just getting to this. That book sounds like what the doctor ordered for me. I have considered giving up my blog but maybe I just need a shot in the arm.

  122. Hi Nezzy, I'm probably too late to enter the giveaway, but in case it's still going on, consider me entered! She sounds like a delightful person and as soon as I can grab some more minutes in the day I'll be checking out her blog. Hope you're doing well there on the Ponderosa and had a nice Thanksgiving!
    Take care, Cheryl
