Aloha,
Ever attended a Christmas party where you bump into the
person who was always there for you
during the last year. You’d thank them for being such a RockStar, right?
If there’s one person in the Blogisfear who you want to say cheers to, who would it be?For us, it was a no-brainer: Alex “no hyperlink needed” Cavanaugh.
Alex is an awesome blogger who’s helped hundreds of us via book releases, guest posts, guest interviews and always positive comments. While we can’t have a live part-ay for the Ninja Captain, we can host a BlogFest:
Welcome to the “Cheers, Cavanaugh BlogFest.”
Hosted by Mark Koopmans, Morgan Shamy, David Powers King and Stephen Tremp, the BlogFest runs
from December 10 - 12.
While Alex is an awesome blogger, he’s also an enigma. J
So, here’s four questions:
·
In +/- 20 words, what does Alex look like?
·
In +/- 20 words, who could play Alex in a documentary? (Living or dead.)
·
In +/- 20 words, who does Alex remind you of?
·
In +/- 100 words, (excluding the title) write flash
fiction using all these prompts:
·
Cavanaugh
·
Ninja
·
IWSG
·
Cosbolt
·
Guitar
·
In +/- 40 words, leave a comment for Mrs. Cavanaugh - thanking her for sharing

Totally worth waiting for, I LOL'd at the genius of this!
The day the Ninja dies...
Rock on!
Brilliant, rockin' idea! :)
Oh, yeah. Count me in.
Awesome blogfest! :)
Great blogfest! (how did I end up on the list twice? GULP)
Friggin' hilarious! (And much deserved!) Love the idea!
Oh Madman Mark... you are genius! ;-)
Pure awesomeness :-)
Never mind the snow! This alone will make my Christmas bright. I'll bring Cocoa. :)
This will be a lot of fun! I'll bring virtual cookies and my world famous peanut butter fudge to the party.
Genius! Can't wait :)
Great idea Mark! I'll bring the Eggnog ;D so fun!
LOL, how fun! The reveal was definitely worth the wait. :)
This is the type of kindness I love! I'm on board.
This is a great idea! I'm in.
Excellent idea guys!!! Round of applause.
Nice blogfest.
This is gonna be a good one!
Epic reveal! It's gonna be huge!
The answers to those questions should be very interesting.
Bwahahaha! :D I can't wait!
aloha!! yay for alex's surprise party! so excited!
Best idea ever! I love it!
You sneaky guys - this is awesome! I love the idea of saying thanks to Alex. Well worth the wait and mystery. ;)
I'm in!
WOW Mark! Great turn out for the blogfest! WHOOT! Alex is amazing. This is a really great idea.
Oooo, I can't wait and I'm totally in! Great idea! Love, love this blogfest!
It's THE BEST BLOGFEST EVER! It's gonna be fun! And I love Alex, too!
So excited! All pumped up with my high heels on ready to go!
Let's get this thing going already! Can't wait! :)
This should gather more interest than a Swiss bank account!
Well done. I'm linked up.
Well done Mark .. looks as though it'll be a good one - and Alex deserves some accolades ... I reckon he'll be hibernating after this .. perhaps he'll venture to Hawaii .. now that's a thought?!
Cheers Hilary
One word... PRICELESS!
This should be fun... can't wait...
haha...what an AWESOME idea. Great job putting this together. Can't wait. :)
Awwww, that's sweet!
Sounds like fun!
This is so funny! I'm getting to work on this right away.
This is the best blogfest, I have encountered. What an amazing idea. I took off the month of Nov. for NaNo and I am just so glad I stopped by tonight and saw this. You are a genius. This is going to be a blast and you are so right, Alex is the man! He is the one I would hope to bump into at the party and tell him how much he has helped me throughout the year. I am really looking forward to this and I am impressed with those of you who schemed up this most appropriate tribute blogfest.
Am I suppose to leave a comment here for the bonus points? Am I leaving it for Mrs. Cavanaugh, his wife or his mom? I hate being under pressure like this, I don't know what to say to her especially when I don't know which 'her' it is.
I am going with don't eat yellow snow.
This is so wonderful. Sorry I couldn't participate--I'm starting my blogging hiatus today. But I wanted to stop by b/c Alex is fantabulous!
What a terrific way to pay it forward to one of our finest.
Nicely one, Mark.
