I GOT BAD TASTE IN BOYS ARCs YESTERDAY!
For those of you not familiar with publishing-speak, ARCs are the advanced copies of a book that they give out to reviewers and things. The book still won't be on the shelves until July. Yes, it hurts me to say that too. But in the meantime, I have a book! It has my name on it! It's MINE.
I cried a little. And then I set it up with my zombie heels and took a grainy picture with my webcam.
We go together like a-rama-lama-lama-NOM NOM NOM!So now, I've taken to carrying one of the ARCs around the house with me. I don't want to put it down. Forget pets; I'm just keeping this ARC. I've named it PRINCESS SPARKLES the THIRD, because I think all cool things should be named.
The best part about all of this is that I'll be able to give some away. I only have a few, though, so I'll have to pace myself. Stay tuned for more deets.

An ARC in the hand is worth two brains in the bush ... nom, nom, nom.
