....from some website in England....!? Wow, that's news to me, I had no idea. People find all kinds of weird stuff and tell me about it....

Gem just sent the PDFs for the second one off to the publisher a minute ago. Last time, they had the proof copy ready in just a few days, we'll see how long it takes them on this one!

Yay.


Thank you!

I just don't get how they came up with the $46.21 figure. It seems a little arbitrary....?

It's strange -- list price is $18.99, then there's some sort of discount on Amazon, too. Is shipping to England THAT expensive? The Brits should just fly over, buy a copy, and go home!

It's because they appreciate your humor and writing style over there more than the "I don't know what to write" types over here!flowerforyou

That's true, and I would write books just for them, but it's hard for me to write "colour" and "centre" without feeling dylsexic.

You'll have to ask Amazon! They're the ones selling it!

I take checks but you probably won't get anything in return except a hearty thank you....!!

And llamas! Hundreds and hundreds of llamas! And they're all dancing! Dancing, I tell you, from midnight to 7:00 a.m., because they like the Arby-Qs....

It's about a guy who comes home from work one night and goes to bed.

The next morning, he, his dog, and his house are a mile and a half away from where they started out the night before.

So he decides to investigate.

I mean, that's what I would do in that situation....!!

Wow. Hrrm. I used to have things like that happen back when I drank to excess. One morning I woke up with a guy and I didnt know who he was so I snuck downstairs real quiet and found his mail on the table so I could see what his name was. It turns out he was a cab driver and I had climbed in his car and passed out so he didnt know where to take me. huh

Good times. :tongue:

Whisper actually helped me with the proofreading on the first one, and the second one is dedicated to her!
