SALES FAIL//SERIES GOING DOWN

For those who didn't check the CHIMERA contest (several entries below), I do want to be clear with this.  The best analogy really is a TV show = an author.  If a TV  show does not get its viewers to watch, it gets cancelled.

12:16 I do love J.D. Morgan @AmyAnneS Just finished watching The Losers, surprisingly good movie! @Rob_Thurman, guys and guns/ made me miss Cal #

14:26 As I watch the 15 great minutes of Wolverine: Origins, I *still* wish the entire movie had been Stryker's team of psychopaths kicking ass #

CHIMERA excerpt and PRIZES

Yes, many capitals in PRIZES to snag the attention. CHIMERA is due to be released June 1st (for the story of how Chimera is the brother book I wrote when I couldn't sell NIGHTLIFE (Book 1 of the Cal Leandros Novels) for a few years, I believe there is a Chimera tag if you're curious as to the details. Long and short is that come hell or high water (seems like we have both of those going on right now), I was going to write a book with brothers in it. And when I finished CHIMERA, NIGHTLIFE...

10:46 In theater...IRON MAN 2! RDJ!! #

10:51 Unfortunately unlike Sherlock Holmes there is no cardboard RDJ to grope. Damn! #
