So yea, it’s here.
What, you ask? Oh, just my book, that’s all. Ya know, that thing that takes me from writer to author. No biggie.
(This is where I use exclamation marks, so put on your seat belts.)
Yea, baby! I’m a published author! #ohyeauhhuhthatsmynameonthatbook
Okay, I’m done. (For now. It comes in waves.)
I hope you’ll check out my new ebook over at Smashwords. It’s priced at a quite reasonable $1.99 this week only.
Also, as part of the Indie Book Collective’s Blog Tour de Force promotion, this Wednesday is my day on our virtual blog tour. So come back and visit to be entered to win a free Kindle preloaded with all twelve authors’ fabulous ebooks, Amazon gift cards, gift baskets, and all kinds of cool stuff, plus even more fun prizes specific to my book and site.
I’m looking to beat all the other authors and get at least 200 comments here on my blog…can you help me make that happen? (I know, this isn’t a competition or anything…but stilll…can ya?) THIS WEDNESDAY, 1/26! Tell your friends.
All visitors get a FREE COPY of my ebook and entries into our free Kindle drawing.
Who wouldn’t want to do that?
Let me know what you think of my book–good, bad or indifferent. I’ll be over here chillin. Me, the vodka, the coffee, and the snark.
We’re all gonna have a good time.
We deserve it.

(Just so you know, I went back and removed an exclamation point after YAY. You make me think about my punctuation and I appreciate that.)

Exclamation point usage is perfectly acceptable here so knock yourselves out.
Carry on…

January 24, 2011 at 2:03 pmAwesome!!! Soak it up and add some bling. Because when you're already shining, bling magnifies the effect!!! <-and, between me and you? I gave absolutely no thought as to how many !'s points I'm using here - other than to use as many as I possibly could! Really!! I swear!!! Murphy 😀

What's the catch on the free e-book?

My favorite line from your book's first chapter is “He is doing YOU a favor, after all. It is singularly YOUR trash, you know.” My husband does a lot of the things you speak of, but the trash boggles my mind more then anything else! He does spray his stink away by the way! Yeah for me!
