I hear you Aslera!

I wish I had a machine that transcribed my dreams. Those would be some amazing stories! And weird. very very weird. Just the other night I was leading a Clydesdale through a former house and thought he peed on the walls. The dream owners had just splatter painted.

On second thought, maybe that machine wouldn't be such a great idea. I'll just go with yours.

My blog lives in a weird time zone where there's only 9 hours to LS's release. Uh, blog, it's 2 p.m.

In other news, I had a tiny little goal on Goodreads before LS's release, and I am 1 add away from meeting that goal. I think I would be less anxious if I hadn't gotten so close (I was like 20 away a week ago)

3 new adds since then, so I've passed that goal. It was unthinkable 2 weeks ago.

Tell me more about your release party. Is this at your house, or at a bookstore, or somewhere else?

Congrats, Sage! How was the release party?

Woot! Found out that Love Sucks is also available at the Amazon UK store, so I've downloaded it (I was worried cos I've been having slow broadband lately, but it seems to have downloaded fine). I've read a few pages - looking good!

Oh, yay, Netz! I was wondering about international Amazon sites because I know someone who wants to read it in South Africa. Hope you like it!

The release party went really well. It was at a cafe that has healthy food, alcohol and coffee, and lots of desserts. I read a short chapter from the book (which meant my face was red the rest of the night, lol...this also happens when I talk a lot, and as the guest of honor, that also happened). We played two games of exquisite corpse, which is where you write a sentence, then the next person writes another sentence building on yours, then folds over your sentence so the next person can only see the one that came before when they write the third sentence, and so on. It's fun to see what crazy stories come out of it. Then we read them out loud to everyone.

And of course, there was the chocolate fondue! Yum!

My friend brought me flowers, which I never get, so that was really exciting. And another friend brought me a framed picture of my cover.

Sounds awesome, Sage! How cool!

And my face would have been red all night too ... plus I would have been very, very sweaty. I sweat like crazy when I'm nervous, ugh! So embarrassing.

Congratz Sage!

Still in the planning stages over here, got my facebook account for the book set up and my Twitter feed [though I like FB better, just more used to it]. And then the website gets launched soon... *shakes head*

It sounds like a complete blast, Sage. I am so excited it will be available on many formats. I need to get my hands ready to grad it

Sounds like fun, Sage! Even the face reddening reading part.

I'm definitely going to have to try corpse. We play a version with book or movie titles. The first person write the title, the next draws a picture and folds the page, the next tries to figure out the title from the picture, and so on until it gets back to the original person. Hilarity ensues!

Haha, that sounds really fun. Way more elements to mess up for the next person. I could see me screwing up the drawing, or the guessing of a title just because I didn't even know the title, much less because I couldn't identify the drawing.
