WTF Thursday - Now with an ARC Giveaway!

Wow. I have lots of new followers. *peers out of computer screen* Hello, people. I like you. Did you do something different with your hair today? It looks really nice.

Oh, and just in case you don't already know, I am promising my first ARC and a poster print of my homepage (arrived yesterday; made of AWESOME) to one lucky person who signs up for my newsletter! There's a link right under my profile here on the blog. Sign up before Monday to be entered!

Remember how I said yesterday that I'm working on a new book? Don't say things like that out loud. Because then edits arrive for one of your old books, and you have to put the shiny new project aside and disappear into the edit cave for a couple of weeks. I bet the Edit Fairies are laughing at me right now.

So, before I jaunt off to the cave for the morning; I have this to say: You people are awesome. A lot of you have been reading my website and sending me new monster math creatures, like the octocorn and the leprasiren. At this rate, I'll need a new website in about a month. Really, I just want an excuse to design more stuff for Manning, because it's just THAT FUN.

Have fun with that. I am working on something new and then had to backtrack to work on a synopsis for previous ms. I really hate synopsissss. What the heck is the plural for that anyway?

Your book cover is AWESOME! Your new site is AWESOME! You are all kinds of AWESOME! I remember Wendy telling me about your book way back when (mid last year?) before it had the title change even. And when she told me the concept of your book I was in awe. And now that it's all official and has a cover and is so much more real, I'm still in awe but now impatiently waiting to read. You rock!

Oh my goodness, your book cover is incredible! I think you should photoshop Richard Simmons in there somewhere, though. What copyright infringement? ;)
