I sort of like the third one but it may be too long (I don't know if there's any sort of golden rule regarding title length but it looks like it might be a lot to fit on a spine).
My personal preference, though, is for the original.

I like all of them. What if you cut # 3 to just Secrets & Lies?

What'd I just kick you for?

I think Hemlock may have a new theme song. Aimee Mann's cover of The Scientist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKAik-3zkEI

Lol. And I love how everyone just ignores my warped and perverted comments. You all must be immune to them by now.

OOoh - I'm pretty sure that in my first WIP that would be the list from the first 2 pages. That is up for some serious editing.... someday.
*skips in* Sorry to interrupt, but...Jump is DONE!
WHOO HOO!! That's awesome!
You'll have to get in line behind me if that's the criteria for butt kicking. I made a cake... and now I'm sitting on the couch watching Ghostbusters with the big kid. We'll see how she sleeps!

Is it bad if one of my male characters breaks down and sobs after killing someone? It's not terribly unmanly given the circumstances, surely.

Everything but "meh".
If his feelings toward this person he killed were malicious in nature, then I wouldn't let him cry. If it was an accident or something that needed to be done, and deep down he didn't really want to do it, then I could see him having a breakdown.

Thanks. Not an accident but definitely not something he would have ever seen himself doing.

OMG, no! Logan in Veronica Mars breaks down on numerous occasions, and he's a pretty tough cookie most of the time. It makes the breakdowns that much more heartbreaking, IMO. *Love* it.
So, has anyone who's read some of DG for me also watched Veronica Mars? Just checking....

Nope. Always meant to get to it but never quite did.

Hound,
As for the perverted responses, I've been vaccinated and immune after nine years of teaching teenagers!!!!
I did chuckle though!! LOL I normally don't like writing "chuckled" but after rereading New Moon, I'm chuckling right along!!!

The places where his accent sticks out crack me up.I agree with all of this... LOVE/D Taylor Lautner. Edward was actually painful for me to watch in the beginning - especially the "scene" in the classroom. I warmed up to him as he calmed down towards the middle of the movie, but the beginning was cringe worthy for me.
:highfive:Ahh, hard and fast...just the way you like your men.
Da-dum dum! There's more where that came from, ladies and gentlemen. Just stick around.
YEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!

Way to go Kate!
How'd you get the Cool Aid dude? LOL
Everytime I see it I think of Dane Cook's thing about being scared of the Cool Aid guy as a kid and how he would burst through a wall instead of using a door, lol.
