Do You Voodoo?
Last weekend, I went to the Museum of Fine Arts Houston to see the Age of Impressionism exhibit. Naturally, I had to stop by the museum gift shop because they always have a coffee table book featuring the paintings in the exhibit, along with the most elegant, er, stuff imprinted with some of the pictures. You know, mugs, ties, umbrellas, magnets, pens, note cards, trays, clocks, prints, jewelry . . . which would normally look like junk but doesn’t because it’s in a museum gift shop. But look what I found! This! In a museum gift shop! It’s a pad of Voodoo paper–for “The Voodoo That You Do”– complete with instructions. I was struck by the enormous possibilities and wondered if I should buy two pads.
Just look at it. You draw either white or black pins, but I think it would be more fun to use real ones and a bulletin board. The instructions say to personalize the features or even paste a photo of the person’s face, and if you want to draw a lot of pins, have at it. I was all set to get started until I read the warning: If you’re casting a hex, beware of karmic backlash, which will come back to you threefold. Oh. I knew there had to be a catch. Well, what about the good stuff? Does that come back threefold, too? Wouldn’t that be great? Except I have a feeling there’s another catch, so I’ve done nothing.

99¢ on the 9th
99¢ on the 9th is early this month so I can participate in the 20-author, multi-genre sale going on today. (Links are in yesterday’s post) That means COUNTERFEIT COWGIRL will be 99¢ until April 10th. The story is one of my favorites. In order to please a sponsor, Olivia, a soap opera actress, is forced to film scenes and “volunteer” at a Texas ranch for wayward boys. If she refuses, well, then, her character might just get kicked in the head by a horse and lapse into a coma. In other words, written out. And it’s contract negotiation time, too. Lucas, the rancher, doesn’t want her or the film crew there, either, but he can’t afford to turn down the money they’ll pay him. It’s a toss up whether Olivia can survive the ranch or the ranch can survive Olivia.
