No Room for My Books
The day has come at last. I have no more room for books in my house, and must therefore permanently suspend the acquisition of any and all new titles.
Bwa ha ha ha ha haahahahaha!!!
Yeah, like that’s going to happen. What’s really happening is that I’m planning to reward the completion and first revision of my WIP by buying a bookshelf or two to house all those gorgeous, colorful, fresh-paged lovelies that keep falling into my arms. (It was the latest poetry book that arrived today in the mail – thank you, book fairy! – that made up my mind.)
So, any suggestions? I’m thinking Ikea. I’m also dreaming about shelves like this.
Mmmm. It makes me feel dirty just looking at all those hardbacks.

Write well, friends!

You finished and revised the WIP?!! You’re a rock star. What an excellent idea to reward yourself. Yes, you definitely deserve some new bookshelves. But, you’re on such a writing roll, methinks you will soon have to reward yourself with much smaller, cheaper delights. Congrats. Again. I get to say congrats. to you a lot, and I love that.

Loved that link. Some day I’m going to get built in book shelves. Just read your last blog post. It’s a Small World…Wrath of Khan maggot…I’m still laughing.

Built in bookshelves? I can’t even dream that big! LOL
I’m glad I made you laugh. That’s my job.

I knew you’d like it. Now stop salivating and get back to selling books. Wait… what? You sold *more* books this week? Crazeee!

LOL. Not yet, but I’m finishing draft one tomorrow! Or tonight, if I get insane. I’m ahead of the game, since I sighted the plot/character issues mid-draft, and went back in then. I hope.
I love your congrats. I can’t wait to say a BIG one to you!
