NEW RELEASES
News from the Compound
So guess what? Guess. Oh, you’ll never get it so I’ll tell you. I had a pitch session with a Literary Agent at the Tucson Festival of Books last month and today she emailed me and asked for more pages. YEA!
Do you want to know the reason why? I’ll tell you why. The Sisters and I were just discussing this at lunch today. The whole reason why the agent asked for more of the book (It’s Clearly Love with Thomas and Francesca) is because I’ve decided to put it away and not work on it anymore.
Seriously. That’s the way the universe works, doncha know.
Also, in sillier news. The family all went out today searching for a “big boy bed” for The Bandit. He’s turning 5 next month and he’s outgrown his toddler bed. He has his little, adventurous heart set on bunk beds.
Who else thinks this is a bad idea?
I’m going to start an escrow account for the emergency room co-pays.
How about a loft bed that isn’t as high, but that still has room for stuff and play activities underneath? Just be sure to put some padding down underneath it. It would maximize his space and be fun, too. If his daddy couldn’t get it built, I’ll bet his uncle (or Cousin Josh) could in a few hours.
