The Mayor ,'End of Days'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We had big winds last night. Not the same system I'm sure.
So I didn't nap or run, instead I am trying to figure out how to turn off the water so I can fix the leaky faucet in the kitchen because it is just leaking too much. Could've sworn there was a valve between the house and the street somewhere, but I'm damned if I can find it.
I am halfway planning to call in "plumbing mishap" tomorrow...
I'm sure there are a number of sofa stores out there who have no idea why some customers are snickering. Or there are some very smug business owners who smirk every time they answer the phone and say their name.
Like the good people at our local chain of trade and industrial stores, Total Tools.
To celebrate my liberation from the crutches I hit up Old Navy and the Container Store and was able to SHOP. Got some green and yellow clothes for vacation and a couple of storage bins that I've been thinking about so when I unpack I can put things where I want.
Now I'm tuckered and I still have packing to do.
Clueless writing/publishing industry question time! (And I'll take this over to GWW if people think that's a better place for it.) Do people get paid to write introductions to books? I've been contacted by an indie press about writing an introduction to the reprint of one of my favorite vampire novels. And while I'm almost certainly going to do it no matter what, money would be cool, too.
I would doubt it in this case, Jilli, not with a small indie press. You can certainly ask for credit, though, and then promote the book with your intro.
I am returned from Mexico. On the bright side, it was apparently a lovely day here, and tomorrow is supposed to be decently nice too? Though not hot and no infinity pool.
Pumpkin just liberated a ginger cookie from a tub (TJs ginger cats, no less.) Didn't eat it but, still.

Cats must be free!

That's what I figured. But hey, a chance to witter about one of my favorite little-known-books!

Exactly. It's something to add to your resume, too.
