…and she had a crazy week. First off, her awesome mother-in-law visited and they had a blast hanging out. Then she got sick with what she thought was a cold, but now suspects that might be a sinus infection. Shortly after this terrible cold/infection began (which may or may not have been part of a dastardly plot to destroy her plans for world domination), the new french doors to Auntie Heather’s office were installed, and Auntie was sooooo happy she almost cried. BUT THEN…she had a coffin couch delivered! And the Minions rejoiced…

Ahh, yes…what you had thought was merely a tale of woe was actually MY WEEK!!! MY RUSE WORKED! And that is REALLY my own, personal coffin couch, made for me by the wonderful folks at www.coffincouches.com! HOW COOL IS THAT?! I’m stoked. And just a bit of paint, a new desk, and some black damask velvet flock wallpaper away from my new office being complete.

The rest of my week has been good and I hope yours has too, Minions. I’ve been writing BLOODBOUND and mulling over my editorial letter for BEGINNING, just trying to wrap my head around a few things. Oh, and I got to hang out with an amazing friend at his second book’s launch party! His name is Antony John and he’s BRILLIANT and FUNNY and I adore him. So…I snagged a copy of his new book, FIVE FLAVORS OF DUMB and forced him to sign it for a lucky winner here on my blog! So…if you want a copy of Antony’s new book, just comment. I’ll draw a random winner on Tuesday. Just look at this cover (and Antony, looking all smart and awesome and stuff)!

And if you’re in the area, tonight Antony and I will be signing from 6-8PM at the Middendorf Kredell Branch of the St. Charles Library, 2750 Highway K, O’ Fallon. Here’s the library’s link: http://www.youranswerplace.org Hope to see a few of you there!
