Pill time

I've spent the day with an icepick headache - didn't know what they were until I looked it up. I hope it goes while I sleep or I'll be taking an icepick to my head. Can't write so decided to pull together info to make a new website - which involved checking dates and listing books etc. The only thing that redeemed the monotony for me was remembering all the names I'd used for my characters. The observant will have seen a few keep cropping up - Will, Jack, Kate, Ally (I spelt one Allie but I still think that's cheating), Holly and Zac (spelt one Zach). I know I shouldn't have done that but I just can't help it!
Anyway, list is made, all I need now is wonderful, kind, gorgeous, clever, brilliant, fantastic son to make me a new website.  I don't suppose that will work. Money will be needed.

I sure hope the morning after you wrote this post finds that ice pick in the oven, top of fridge, behind the vase, you know, places to stash a weapon and not in your hand and may the headache remain history. And while the pressures on, I best hit up that talented son of yours for a cover as well.

Yep, all gone, thanks Arlene! I only remembered I'd had it when I saw this! I know how lucky I am I don't get the migraines you suffer from.

Big frontal pic on it like this one?

Oh my god, I don't think so!! Why would you do that! I'm thinking I'll use the dog. He's so good looking!

Good lord, I'm still laughing at the magnified frontal at http://scottoline.com/. The only way that kind of in-your-face picture can be appetizing is if it's connected to a virile ripple of pectoral flesh LOL.

I like your current site. It's clean, it catches the eye and is easy to navigate. Though, if you put some of your book covers on your home page, it would celebrate your success and potentially snag more casual wanderers.

Hmm...is your talented son looking for more work? I'm in the market for a cover artist.

Glad your ice pick lost its bite.
