Jen B Hale says
Thanks Rhonda for this sensational list. So valuable and now there’s no excuses for not having anything to write about.
Vanessa says
Wow, what a list! I’ve pinned this so I can refer back to it 🙂
Tegan says
These are great. I am always on the look out for new phrases etc as I hate using the same sayings over and over again.
Rhonda Chapman says
Know what I do sometimes? I flick through a magazine, I close my eyes when I see an interesting article, then I do “eenie meenie miney mo” and put my finger on the page. Whatever my finger lands on is the sentence that motivates the next blog post. Give that a go.
Sally Dunn says
WOW Rhonda that is some impressive list!!!! What’s your fav.?
Rhonda Chapman says
Hi Sally.
I think my fave is “We dream of a future where you never have to wait for your copy” because I’m a book and movie lover and tired of waiting for hardcopies or DVDs to get to Australia. We are ALWAYS behind and if we download it’s illegal.
Brands (publishers and distributors) need to hurry up and catch up with technology.
Tamara James says
