We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Because books.

In my head, it's a pretty good little book.

It is. But in this marketplace, everyone wants to be sure they know how to sell it, and move those copies. Publishers are gun-shy right now. Or I should say even more gun-shy than usual, when it comes to outlay of money vs. possible profit.

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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

“Not dead yet!”

No! She's gorgeous. We were all just stunned into inactivity due to the gorgeousness (and also that Ben's taller than you! OMG, when did that happen?)

Also? I am a giant dork. I just ordered a box of custom cookies for my publisher's art department.

Because I love my cover Just That Much.

I'm also wearing three-inch heels there. Sigh.
