So I finally replaced my ten year-old laptop Spunkie with a new Macbook Pro. Yesterday! And I'm writing on it this very minute. A big thanks to everyone who helped Secret Speakers win the Reader's Choice award as a cell phone novel at Textnovel. I used the prize money to by Spunkie II.

Thanks to Tyler Osmond who sold it to me. Writing to you all from my very own computer sure beats having to laptop hop. (Thanks to very generous family members for your patience.)

This next picture is the reflection of my old laptop that still does word processing, and in fact, I'm tidying up the manuscript which you can see on the screen.

All the little blue things on the left are the sticky notes from my editor, filling the edges of the manuscript. There are lots and lots of them. (And I finally finished going through them, gleeful sigh.)

Now that I've got a computer that does more than allow me to type word documents, I'm going to finish designing the back of the book cover and spine, put together the book trailer for my soon-to-be-released, very amazing new website, complete with a very cool application that allows you to make your own luminamen right before your eyes, and . . . well . . . all that!

Oh, and thanks to the really nice bald guy at Simply Mac.

Karey I DID get to meet an Osmond! His brother is David Osmond who was on the American Idol tryouts. David has a single that just came out.

He told me David got laryngitis during one of the competitions and had to back out. But Tyler said it's a blessing since David's wife is due to have a baby any day, and with David's MS, the stress would have made his symptoms worse. It's hard to believe that without medication, David would be in a wheelchair. What an inspiration.
