Jaimey’s comments from the Author Support Group group.

I'm nearing 13,000 and reveling in the pressure. I'm not sure I'm cranking out anything worth reading but I'm enjoying the ride. :o)

So how are you all doing with NaNo?

That's great, Holly! Way to go!

Sharon, I really wish I could be there to meet you. It sounds like great fun. :o)

Stalk, stalk, stalk...The word has lost all meaning.

Daniel, I have to agree with Paul. The monkey one sounds highly entertaining.

Hi, Paul. Fancy seeing you here. It's like I'm following you, or not-so-subtly stalking you...

:oD

It's about time, Paul! Sheesh! Have the tables turned? Am I stalking you now?

Hi, Robert! Just click my link below and click the "add as buddy" link beneath my picture on my NaNo page. :o)

Is anyone taking part in NaNoWriMo this year? I have decided to give it a go at the urging of some of my goodreads friends.

More info here: http://www.nanowrimo.org

If anyone here is giving it a shot, here's my addy: http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/534005
Let's be buddies! :o)

Woo-hoo! Congrats, Sharon! I'll check it out later tonight. :o)

Would they pay if you deleted your account altogether?

Is anybody on here a member of the Ning group called Book Blogs? I joined a month ago but haven't participated a whole lot yet.

Here's the main page:

Let me know what, if any, experience you have with this group and friend me if you're on there! :o)

Hey, Paul. Glad to have you here. Really. You're not scaring me or anything. Not at all. "Easy, boy," she says, turning to pet the dragon at her side. "You may only eat him if he tries something silly."

heehee ;oP

Thank you to all who entered my recent giveaway. Please visit my blog to find out who the winner is.

Hey, Madison! I'm so glad you're back. :o)

The message will be in your inbox today. I promise. :o)

I am hosting a giveaway on my blog. I am giving away a signed copy of my Regency romance, Redemption and a string of genuine cultured freshwater pearls, courtesy of my brother Jay, who owns JaysDesign Jewelry. Entry deadline is August 31. For details and entry rules, see my blog post, Romance and a String of Pearls; a Regency Giveaway.

Thanx for looking and have a lovely day!

Do books given away for free count as copies sold? Or does actual money have to exchange hands, so to speak?

For example, do my 30-odd copies of Spellbound that have sold at smashwords count as sales even though they were downloaded free with a coupon? Or are we only talking hardcopy books here?

Thank you for any help...

I've been hearing lately that the UK Amazon is far more author-friendly than the US one. Goes with the US attitude, I suppose. (Does that sound bitter?)

Great news, Gina! Just out of curiosity, how close a friend was this person? Someone who was there for all the drama or just heard it all from you? Perhaps a secret friend of your own "Guppy" neighbors?

I would like to know, what is the other side when someone tries to run you down with a car? Is there another side? Can you and your hubby actually be so sickeningly sweet that running you over is what you deserve? (Have I remembered the correct near-death incident from your interview?) Meanwhile, I think this person wants your hubby. Sounds jealous. Just saying.
