It appears I'm contractually obligated to include the Duchess of Richmond's ball at the 3/4 point of my story.
Is that the ball in "Vanity Fair"? (Yeah, I've only seen the movie.)
Deb, boo to the way they did it, but yay to them buying the book.
Buffy: Where are the burgers? Riley: Yeah man, I'm starving. Cow me. Xander: I'd love to make with the moo but the fire's not cooperating.
'Lessons'
The Great Write Way, Chapter Two: Twice upon a time...
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Yay Deb for a date, even if the process sucked!
Yay Allyson!!

Yep.
Go Team Allyson with the full request!
And yay for Deb's next book!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
HA! I knew Allyson's book would get some grabs upfront. Allyson! Excellent! But breathe.
See Deb being completely unexcited about her own new deal. See Deb being way the hell more excited for Allyson than she is about Cruel Sister.
Yes, indeed, I am highly cranky with my publishers.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Deb, is it alright to include your contact info on my source list. I think it's probably a lot of just checking that yes, i am me and i exist sort of stuff, though i could be wrong.

Oh, hell yes. Give them my email and my cell phone number if they need it; you can also tell them - if it would be at all useful, which it might not be - that I'd be proud to write a blurb for any proposals.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Allyson, that is SO exciting! Go, you!

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
That's great, Allyson. Not surprising to me, though.
