So when's the Gina Holmes interview?
ReplyDeleteAl, What's one little coffee shop to a successful author such as yourself?
ReplyDeleteTony, yeah, now that'd be interesting.
Q: So tell us about the day you received the call that your book was going to be published.
Gina: well, I haven't gotten that call.
Q: What marketing do you do?
Gina: For what?
Q: Why haven't you been published yet?
Gina: starts to cry. I dooonnnntt knooooow. Sniff. Sniff.
They'll be lining up for that one.
Congrats on the nomination btw for your short story for infuze. That's very cool.
Gina's interview continued:
ReplyDeleteQ: So are you bitter about your latest rejection?
G: No, not at all. That gun went off by accident.
Q: Seven times?
G: I have a nervous twitch. Here, have a Starbucks. My own special blend.
Q: Um, no thanks...I have an appointment with Grisham.
G: Better hurry, I sent his Christmas present two days ago--FedEx.
Ron, Yikes, I'm a bit off but never have I been accused of being murderous, wait...no never.
ReplyDeleteRepeat after me: Editors are friends not food. (okay, I've been watching Finding Nemo again.)
You're a nut.
Remember that cute little boy on the Pop-Tarts commercial? "Blueberries are our fwiends."
ReplyDeleteBut now that I've seen Finding Nemo, I feel like the dad clown fish who keeps following Dori, the forgetful fish, even though she's long forgotten he's even back there. "Who are you and why are you following me?"
"Look! A castle!"
Yep, Gina, some day this will all be yours! : )
Until then, keep on keeping on. Yer da best at what you do.
later!

Thanks Donna. At the moment, that would make me the best consumer of entire pepperoni pizzas and hisser at uncooperative computer screens.
ReplyDeleteSuccess is how you define it!
And you may ask yourself: how did I get this beautiful blog, this beautiful manuscript, these beautiful friends? And you may tell yourself...I don't know.
Sorry, flashback to the 80s (Talking Heads). I need a nap. And judging by y'all's posts, you do too.
Pillow anyone?
ROFL! I love the Gina interview.
ReplyDeleteSmart chickie, you are the marketing guru.
Love ya!
