My MC's homeroom teacher is named Mr. Wilson in memory of my high school band teacher. I didn't have any planned for my WIP. I just might have to think of a few. Fun idea!

Easter eggs are so fun! Mine usually have to do with names, but sometimes I'll slip references in like that. Unfortunately I have been denied access to the memory bank that stores this information, so I can't give you specifics. ;-)

LOL--I love hearing about y'alls Easter eggs!

I was just telling my hubby about doing this.. I do this all the time with every book I've written. It's one of my fave things about writing. :)

I do have Easter eggs in my novels, all over the place. Whether or not anybody finds them is another matter!

Everywhere! I think this is one of the best ways authors can give a little bit more to make their book special.
My favorite is when my eighth grade BFF read The Emerald Tablet and sent me a Facebook message to ask if I'd intentionally named the bad guy after our high school Geometry teacher :)

A crit partner of mine has a book about a super famous rockstar... so when my character cranked up the tunes... she TOTALLY cranked up HIS song! :)

hehe I of course asked her first, but she LOVED it!

Yes Beth, you're blog is more beautiful than ever!...

Yes Beth, you're blog is more beautiful than ever! I do have a lot of Easter Eggs in my novel. I have a line dediated to Tolstoy, one for Hemingway, and one for the animation director Miyazaki. Those are probably the most obvious ones, but there are perhaps half a dozen other ones that I only remember whenever I read through the whole draft. :)

This is very interesting. I wonder how many Easter Eggs [that no one knows about] are in well-known stories.

PS... I love the new template.

I love your easter eggs! I couldn't think of any in my WIP. Sigh...no inside jokes here.
