2nd Annual NO KISS Blogfest!

The 2nd Annual No Kiss Blogfest is coming!

What: The No Kiss Blogfest! This is when you get to write a scene or post one from your favorite books, movies, and tv shows that show the almost kiss-- the rising, crushing, excruciating, longing, tension that comes from when two characters get oh-so-close to kissing that you can just feel it....and then...they don't!

Last year over 80 bloggers participated! And reading every single entry was a blast! I can't wait to do it again and hopefully read more!


We interupt this post for an interupted kiss...

Jacob and Bella are the epitome of the No Kiss!

Ok, here are the details!

No Kiss Blogfest Jan 2, 2011! 
Things You Should Do To Prepare For The Ultimate Non-Kissage Festivities!



1) Sometime between now and Jan 2, 2011 write a post about the No Kiss Blogfest to let everyone know you are participating and that they should too. Why? Because it's awesome!

2) Sign up for No Kiss Blogfest by filling in the Mr. Linky below.  Because Mr. Linky is awesome.

3)Tweet about No Kiss Blogfest, using the hash tag: #nokissblogfest because #hashtagsareawesome

4) After you've recovered from New Years Eve, write a blog sharing your Almost Kiss, No Kiss Blogfest entry (either one from your WIP, one you just wrote, one from a book, movie or tv show)and post on January 2, 2011!!! Because reading your posts are awesome!


Yay! I'm so excited!!! Are you?

Add yourself to the Mr. Linky, and get ready for No Kiss Blogfest 2011! See you all on January 2nd!

P.S. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins is out in stores today and guys this book is like one big delicious Almost Kiss (followed by some real kisses).

  1. Oh my gosh, this is so exciting! :D I am most definitely going to participate. It's going to be soooo hard to choosing a scene though, there are so many intense ones to choose from. :P

  48. Aww, I would have loved to participate, but I missed the boat. I could cheat and say I didn't, since I'm on GMT +8 time and ahead of most here no doubt, but it IS Jan 3rd here. I would have loved to participate. :D

    ReplyDelete
  49. Oh no! I see that Mr Linky was accepting the link but not displaying them! please do delete links 50 and 51. Link 48 goes straight to the appropriate post. Thanks
