We're celebrating one of the most generous and popular of bloggers who is also a talented author: Alex J. Cavanaugh. This Blogfest is the brilliant brainchild of Mark Koopmans, Morgan Shamy, David Powers King and Stephen Tremp. Thanks guys for organizing this. Your imaginations know no bounds.

So...what do I think Alex looks like? Well, not unlike this (left):
If you want to see the picture on the site, go here: Alex . OK, it's not the Jesus Christ aspect (!!!). I know he's a good person but I'm not crazy. I really just think the picture looks like how I imagine Alex.

Who could play Alex in a documentary? Easy-peasy. A very young Terence Stamp. Not as he is now (a teeny bit old) but as he was when he was young.
I hope Terence Stamp likes sitting in front of a computer, because I have an idea that Alex does a lot of that!
Alex reminds me of someone from a 1980s rock band - but I think that's because he plays the guitar...the name will come to me at 3am tomorrow.
Fan Fiction (using the prompts: Cavanaugh, Cosbolt, Ninja, Guitar, IWSG)
Alex Cavanaugh arrived in style for his book-signing gig by landing his Cosbolt fighter with expertise right in front of New York's largest book store. Copies of his new book, CassaIce&Fire, filled the store's window with a huge sign that said it stood at the top of the rankings above "50 Shades of Grey". He gunned the engine, to the delight of the thousands of Ninjas who lined 5th Avenue, that had been closed to traffic, and waved his guitar promising his army a song later. Just before he greeted the store's CEO, his cell phone received a message: Good luck Alex, it read, this is Sue Roebuck, I'll be there to get my book signed as soon as I can. I'm just writing my IWSG post. You couldn't give me a lift could you?
To Mrs. Cavanaugh - thank you for sharing Alex in the bloggersphere. I think you deserve to have a guest post on his blog because I bet you help him out and that the pair of you make a great team.

God, I didn't recognise Terence Stamp!
ReplyDeleteLoved your flash fiction :)Fun to read all the celebrities being compared to Alex today! Is that supposed to be a picture of Jesus? I have to check out that sight :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I loved, loved this!
ReplyDelete"...the name will come to me at 3am tomorrow." <== this made me literally laugh out loud because this happens to me way too often!
I really enjoyed your flash fiction too. It's so creative and hilarious! Glad to see he made it above 50shades! :D
Great flash fiction, Susan.
ReplyDeleteI like the title CassaIce&Fire... topping the rankings above 50 Shades Of Grey... made me smile!
... the Jesus look-alike is a very interesting Alex-comparison-image...

ReplyDelete(sorry - I made a mistake in the last comment so I've started again) Thanks everyone. This is such a fun blogfest...just to make something clear: I don't think Alex looks like Jesus Christ, I just think the PICTURE on the site looks like him. ROFL
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures! Great choices :)
ReplyDeleteLove the image of the Cosbolt making a landing in front of the book store!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree, a post from Mrs. C would be a great addition to the Ninja's blog. :)
Cheers!
The flash fiction piece is awesome! Totally fiction, but it's still cool. I could handle being a young Terrance Stamp.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the kind words and friendship!
*snort* It's so funny to see the image of Alex in everyone's heads. And, yeah, I want a lift in that Cosbolt too!
ReplyDeleteLove! And I love the idea of Mrs. C doing a guest post! And so glad to be connected now, Susan. You have a fabulous blog! :D
ReplyDeleteI love that it beat out 50 Shades of Gray. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, please let something beat Fifty Shades of Grey.
ReplyDelete*still laughing*
ReplyDeleteOh, man...saw the Fifty Shades and lost it.
*STILL laughing*
Here's to knocking off 50 Shades! I'm sure Alex would love to give you a ride in his cosbolt. He looks for any excuse to drive that thing. :) Terrific piece!
ReplyDeleteHaHaHa! Hey, can I get a lift, too? How about Alex's cell #?
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone. Ha! Gwen, that made me laugh.
DeleteGreat story and I love the tribute to Mrs. C.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to see something beating 50 shades! lol
ReplyDeleteCassa Ice and Fire - I love it.
ReplyDeleteOh! What a great idea! I'd love to 'meet' Mrs C in a guest post!!!
ReplyDeletehaha...I would love a ride in the Cosbolt!! Don't forget to pick me up too. :)
ReplyDeleteoooh...well, I'm not sure if there's room with you, Tamara, me and Gwen. :-D Oh! And Alex!
DeleteNice! Alex must be dying about now.
ReplyDeleteI don't picture him with a beard at all. Not sure why.
ReplyDeleteNice! I want a ride on one of those Cosbolt spaceships too :)
ReplyDeleteVery cool picture. It's funny how we all envision him different. The man is a mystery!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan .. the Terence Stamp look alike I could go with - now that wouldn't surprise me - great photo .. really am not keen on the first one!!
ReplyDeleteSpace flying into the book store is a great idea - so pleased Alex' trilogies fill the store window .. Grey should be well at the back ..
Fun - cheers Hilary
This is so clever Susan! It is fun to see how everyone pictures Alex, and I love how he topped the sales of Fifty Shades of Grey! Julie
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think Hilary's right in retrospect - I'm not sure about the photo-fit picture. But I maintain Terence Stamp! Beard and all.
DeleteAlex Fest - Cheers!
ReplyDeleteAlex would look great flying his Cosbolt to the book signings!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I'm giggling over this. Okay, laughing. Giggling is a little too much. Great tribute, Susan! Thanks for participating! :)
ReplyDeleteAlex with a beard??? THe world may never know.
ReplyDeleteTerrence Stamp is an excellent choice!
ReplyDeleteWho wouldn't want a ride in a Cosbolt? Cool stuff! :D
ReplyDeleteI'v never seen a young Terrence Stamp! Wow. Yes, I could see that. Even has the longish rock n' roll hair.
ReplyDeleteShannon at The Warrior Muse
