I should send her an annual bill for keyboard replacement. S/L - hi there! Oh and I've actually deleted and blocked people at myspace for that stuff. I have a thing about manners.

I love writing, hate promoting, but it's all true - ya gotta, even if you're La Nora. I pissed one writer smooth off last year by snarking about drive-by blog ho's - she hasn't been back, but...it's just rude. I got so busy reading some of your back posts that I almost forgot to stop and say HI - lol. Enjoy your weekend. Sitting here nodding uh-huh, uh-huh.

At Amazon when I see authors pimp their books in the discussions there, it’s usually in an inappropriate way. It reeks of desperate" *bangs head on desk* YES! Yes, yes, yes. I'm still getting the hang of what works for promotion and what doesn't. I don't think any of us really have a sure fire plan. I have worked out what I think works for me. P.S. Megan better stay away from me with that chainsaw...and the monkeys in her pants. “Don’t insert yourself and your book into every conversation.
