Books, Books and More Books

  • Apr. 29th, 2008 at 9:23 AM

It's a big day for urban fantasy and paranormal romance. Just check out the book birthdays over at Urban Fantasy Land. Break a leg, ladies!

One of the things I forgot to mention in my previous RT blogs were all the free and signed books I snagged. Take a look...


So some of these are mine, but more importantly some of them are for you. Where should we begin? I'm thinking Personal Demons, since I'm throwing Stacia a book club at the League (save the date: May 12th). This one's not signed, since she's trapped in the Tower of London or somewhere, chained to a computer. So how about a contest?

Are you up for it?

Since Stacia's main character is a psychotherapist and I've got a bit of experience with that, let's roll with our best advice. Just leave it in the comments and I'll choose a winner at random. There are no wrong answers.

My best advice: Never go to bed angry...or...resolve the issue before it has time to fester.

I'll choose the wiener on Friday. That's it. Go!

Friendship is about giving. It's never about taking.

Haha... when it came to weapons, daddy always said:

"Bows are more painful... and it takes longer to die."

I didn't have alot of boyfriends in high school. I don't know why. *shrug*

Sometimes love is the answer, other times it's a silver bullet.

No child is perfect - choose which battles you are going to fight ahead of time and stick to your list. Changing it confuses the heck out of the child.

I'll go with what my dad said to me not long ago, in a cheesy way:

Your boomerang won't come back, because first you have to throw it.

Whenever you can - choose to be happy.

I guess that's gotten me through some dismal crap in life.

Be honest with your child and they're more likely to be honest with you.

The best advice I ever got about dealing with people who are difficult: it's not about you.

It helps me stop taking things personally.

Don't go into the basement, the bushes, haunted houses, or anywhere else you think you just "heard a cat."

And never ever taunt a zombie.

Best advice:

Shoot to kill, if you shoot at all.

Warning shots are wasted shots.

I just wish some of my characters didn't know this - it would make things more interesting sometimes. :p

When you get angry at what someone else does, take a look at yourself and ask if it's because you're afraid you do the same thing in some form.

Wiener, not winner, eh? ;)

As my grandfather told me a long time ago:

"In any tight or dangerous situation, think of the worst thing that can possibly happen, and then don't let it happen."

Stop stressing about the problems you can't change, and do something about the ones you can.

My great uncle always used to tell me: "You take the good. You take the bad. You take them both. And there you have..." something. I forget the rest.

From House, MD:

Doing things changes things. Not doing things leaves them exactly as they were

Always use a condom, because chemical birth control doesn't always work!

My favorite advice came from my sister before I went to Russia:

Never look up when birds are overhead.

BTW- I have the book, so I'm just sharing for fun!!! Give it to someone who NEEDS it... which means, doesn't have it. :p

Just because you think it, doesn't mean you have to say it.
