The edits for MISTRAL'S KISS are off to New York.

How can a single sentence fill me with so much dread?

I could read from MISTAL'S KISS, but let's just say that the book hits the bedroom, not so figuratively speaking, very quickly.

And this makes it different from the last Merry books ... how?

I try not to read sex scenes at public events. Both for my comfort level and the comfort level of the audience. We'll see what I have in my goodie bag when I get there tonight.

Then what, precisely, does she read? I was thinking, "Wow, how did she manage to read all of Micah at one event?" and then realised, "Hey, it's basically a paragraph if you omit the awful awful awful screamsex."

THERE IS NOTHING IN THE GOODIE BAG, LAURELL, IT'S ALL JUST SEX.

Wait, so let me get this straight. She's uncomfortable with the idea of reading a sex scene out loud to a group of fans, and she thinks they'd be uncomfortable too...but she feels comfortable writing and publishing this crap? I fail to see the logic. Or maybe it's just that she doesn't fancy being pelted with soda cans and rotten tomatoes.

I doubt I can reach my wall from the bookstore, though. But I can try.

That last comment just SCREAMS to be an icon.

That would be muy shiny.

I can't imagine that she'd actually keep something like a disgustingly long and pointless sex scene from reading the book in public......

Though i wish she would.

Edits done, wolf howl tonight
I did this long blog yesterday, but blogger ate it. So this morning you get the abbreviated version. The edits for MISTRAL'S KISS are off to New York. Done. Yea! Those of you lucky enough to get tickets will be seeing us at the wolf howl tonight. They have to limit the number of people they bring in so the animals don't freak. Sorry about that. I'm not sure what I'm reading tonight. I read the beginning of DANSE MACABRE two howls ago, and the first few chapters are now up on our web site. Normally, since it's coming out at the end of June, this month, but I try to read something I haven't read before at the howls. I read MICAH one howl ago, and it's out now. I could read from the short story collection, STRANGE CANDY. It's coming out in October. But not sure what story I'd read,and I have no book or manuscript so I'd have to print off my choice of story to read. I could read from MISTAL'S KISS, but let's just say that the book hits the bedroom, not so figuratively speaking, very quickly. I try not to read sex scenes at public events. Both for my comfort level and the comfort level of the audience. We'll see what I have in my goodie bag when I get there tonight.
