Yesterday was a bleh day. Sometimes you just have days like that. I did some work - hated everything I did and have already started re-writing it - and tried to spend some time with my lady friends I'm producing this short film, Uggs For Gaza, with, but I wasn't great company. I blame my horoscope entirely. It predicted I would be impotent and unable to express myself.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book! Got to do a super fun panel at Comic Con with Seanan and was lucky enough to get a copy of the book before it came out. So much fun to read and very engaging. Pick it up and be prepared not to want to put it down :)

“There is so much more to this world then outward appearances. Our society basks in the illusion of normalcy every day, and hides from the truth every night.”
Amber Benson, Ghosts of Albion: Accursed

“If I wasn't an actress I'd want to be a writer or else find a job where I got to read books and watch movies all day, everyday, for the rest of my life.”
Amber Benson

“Books are what I escaped to when I was a kid, and books...unless they're just really piss poor, I get swept up in them and I'm gone.”

message 3: by A.

A. *squee* Thank you for friending me back! I confess, I haven't gotten around to reading "Death's Daughter" yes, but it's pretty high on my list.

I'm intrigued to see that you read so much Literature-- that's rare these days. I confess, voracious reader that I am, I still often take way too long to get around to the classics. I didn't even read Jane Eyre until I had to for the sake of understanding Jasper Fforde's "The Eyre Affair"! Silly me.

Jeannie Faulkner Barber Good morning Amber and thank you for being a friend!

Bradley Hello Amber, I hope you are having a good day! =)
