And Now For Something Completely Different...

In the news this week: Author Jeremy Robinson explains how one should market: Marketing Tips For Authors Win a free copy of Bonnie Grove's "Talking to the Dead": Fiction Matters Pete Masterson explains why publishers should avoid mass market paperbacks: View From the Publishing Trenches “The Bare Truth About Writers” - those who work in the nude!

Today is also my anniversary - 18 years!
This is us on our wedding day in Albuquerque, New Mexico. (Yes, Spunky used to be a blonde!)
 This is us today!
(Taken last year in Atlanta by author Darlene Wofford.)
And we shall celebrate with dinner and a movie - "X-Men Origins: Wolverine"
Aren't we romantic?

And since everyone seemed to enjoy the New Bern, NC pictures earlier this week, let me wrap up this post with a couple more from Tryon Palace Historical Sites & Gardens!

  3. Got a bang out of the naked writers story. I'm too cold-natured for that. Maybe I could write in a sauna. Of course, using a laptop should keep me warm.

    Congrats on the anniversary. Enjoy the movie.

    Congratulations, Diane! A night with Hugh Jackman is a pretty good way to spend an anniversary.

  10. I know I am the odd duck out on SPAM issues but I really don't want a machine censoring what I get in the mail. I'd rather just use the delete button and say "bye bye!" I don't want to miss something important or have anyone thinking I am ignoring them.

    On the other hand, I've been known to make my own errors on choosing what is SPAM and what isn't. (-:

    Best,

  12. Fortunately, Carolyn, that 'spam' is the edible kind!
