The Mavs are going to the NBA Finals!!!!!! :yippee: :yippee: :yippee: BTW this is the first time since 1971 that two first-timers have made it to the finals, which is pretty damned cool.

Between a little writing at basketball practice and what I got done today, I crossed the halfway point for the novella and finally took back control of the damned thing. D’Angelo and Cherise are giving me fits. :dead:

I’m exhausted so I’m actually writing this Friday afternoon and I’m gonna go veg out/work on the couch all weekend, but first some food for thought………any idea what the words ‘hands on’ and ‘built’ have to do with one another? :tater:

Think about that for a while……..I’ll be back to answer I promise.

I agreed to speak at my local RWA chapter (before the sale when I thought I’d have time to put this all together) this month on epublishing and self-promotion.

So, I need your help……..Lurkers, readers and writers…….If you feel like playing along just email me your answers at cece @ celiastuart dot com

a) Promo posted on loops
b) Excerpts posted on loops
c) Publisher announcements of new releases
d) Other (and if so what?)

2. Publishers announcements of new releases aside, does the promotion posted on loops like TRS, FAR Chatters, etc. influence your buying or seriously annoy the living daylights out of you?
