Hey y'all. How goes it?
I thought since we have a few new visitors (Hi! new people!) today could be an introduction post. So I've awakened that sleeping giant, the great Question-Maker (who lives in the void between rainbows and shooting stars) to interview me.
Question-Maker: yawn, stretch, crick. "Hey, every- whoa. A lotta new faces around here. What happened?"
me: "Well, dear Question-Maker-"
QM: "That's Mr. Question-Maker to you."
me: "But we've known each other for years! We should be on a first name basis. What do you call me?"
QM: "A nickname I only use on special occasions."
me: "What occasions?"
QM: "Right after you've left a room." snort
me: "..."
QM: "..."
me: "Okay, so we have some new faces I think because of the EVERNEATH cover reveal, and I think because of the ARC."
QM: "What's an ARC?"
me: "An Advanced Reader Copy of my book. I got them last week. Wanna see a pic?
 |
| The cover makes my hand look even uglier. |
I love it so much."
QM: "You know the rule about loving your ARC?"
me: "No."
QM: "You can love your ARC, just don't love your ARC."
me: "I would never-"
QM: "That means no petting."
me: "Dang!"
QM: "So, for the new people around here (and I really don't know why they would want to spend time here)-"
me: "Stop with the asides!"
QM: "Sorry, that was supposed to be an internal aside. So, for the new people - and welcome, you smart people - tell us a little about your blog."
me: "Okay. I blog every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I blog about writing and books, but even more I blog about random stuff."
QM: "Like that time you got stuck in a bathroom on Venice Beach?" snicker snicker
me: "... and I blog about other things too."
QM: "Like that time you shouted 'belly boobs!' to an elevator full of strangers?"
me: "That was not my fault! ... It was the fault of the shirt I was wearing."
QM: "I think those are great examples about what you can expect on the blog."
me: "I also blog about this guy a lot:"
 |
| Rafa Nadal, celebrating right after he heard he would be featured on my blog. |
"He's playing in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon today."
QM: "What's Wimbledon?"
me: "It's only like the most important tennis tournament in the world."
QM: "What's tennis?"
me: "Seriously, do you even read my blog?"
QM: "I thought you already knew the answer to that question."
me: "And... that's it for the Question Maker! Thank you for your help."
QM: "I'm not done yet-"
me: "Thanks so much for stopping by!"
QM: "But I still have more-"
me: "Have I described Rafa's hip dents to you lately?"
 |
| They are defined, and pointy. |
QM: "You're right. Look at the time. See y'all next time!"
Okay, so that was the Question Maker! If you would like to run a question through the Question-Maker, and have me answer it, you can leave it in the comments.
I'll even give you a question form you can use:
1. Name
2. A little bit about yourself
3. How would you describe Rafa's hip dents?
i'm an oldie (and maybe the first comment??!!)
ReplyDeletei just want to touch IT! (and not anything on that tennis players body--)
YOUR ARC!!!!! i am in love.
Even though I'm not new, I'd definitely describe Rafa's hip dents as smoldering. Yowza!
ReplyDeleteDorien- I will bring it by so you can touch it! And remember, no petting.
ReplyDeleteJenni- That is an excellent description. Succinct, yet accurate.
Ah, the Question Maker. Snarky goodness. :)
ReplyDeleteWill you bring your ARC to MY house so I can touch it? Will you also ignore the men in black standing behind the door, who will make sure you don't leave with it? They'll be very gentle.
Robin- That depends... do the men in black resemble Rafa? Because then I would happily be tackled by them. :)
ReplyDeleteOf COURSE they resemble Rafa! What kind of evil genius do you think I am? Only the best for you, Brodi.
ReplyDeleteI've actually read the ARC and I LOVE IT!!! Love the cover too!! I can't wait for the second book to come out! When does it, by the way? (And I better not have to wait until 2013).
ReplyDeleteOh, and Rafa is not so bad to look at either....
That Question Maker. Snark, indeed.
ReplyDeleteAs for Rafa's dents? I want to tell him to pull his pants up. =D Sorry, it's the mom in me.
I know why you have that crush on Rafa...he has the same hip dents that I have. You are a lucky woman.
ReplyDeleteBeing that sculpted almost seems uncomfortable to me, bones sticking out. The boy doesn't have an ounce of fat on him - but those eyes!
ReplyDeleteErin- how did you get your grubby little hands on a copy? :) I'm glad you loved it. I can't wait until the second one is written too. When is someone going to get on that?
ReplyDeleteDonna- I know, part of me wants him to pull his pants up too. Ah, the dilemma that is being older than him by ten years!
Sam- I thought yours were hip outdents, not hip indents. I was wrong.
Kay- His whole being makes me uncomfortable. In a good way. :)
VAMOS RAFA! I'm a big fan of his too, that alone is reason enough to follow your blog :-D
ReplyDeleteName: Moment of truth, my name isn't Safari Poet {shocked gasps}. I can imagine I would of had a lot of problems in school with a name like that. It's Petra.
A little bit about yourself: Born in the Caribbean, living in Germany (weird combination, I know) and I have a tendency to read... a lot.
How would you describe Rafa's hip dents? Can't, my thought go blank just looking at them *blush*
Sorry Kaye! I left off the "E".
ReplyDeleteSafari Poet- I am shocked, shocked I tell you, to find your real name is not Safari! Thanks so much for introducing yourself. Welcome to the blog!! And vamos Rafa!
i wonder if there is any way to get a couple of ARC's?????
ReplyDeleteKaitlyn- If you look on my blog under "Contact Info", you'll find the email address of my publicist. You can send her an email and request an ARC.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
@brodi YAY!!!! i need to get my hands on a copy!!!!!!! :)
