"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

Do You Want to See Me In Print?

Too bad!

But my friend Bree's book is coming out next Tuesday- yep, that's one week from today:




"The Dark Divine" by Bree Despain

And I did read it a few times and comment, so maybe one of my words is in the book. But probably not. She's very talented on her own.

If you want to read a little, check it out here:

Be sure to get your own copy to read over Christmas break. Justin says instead of assuming that because two of my writer friends have agents, and two are published, I must statistically be the un-achiever, I should assume that statistically we are "clustering" and will all succeed. I think he made that up, but just in case: you should buy her book, so she can be on the New York Times Bestseller List, so that someday I can be too.

See how that logic worked?

Okay, I'm tired.

Go buy the book.

One more theory: maybe part of the reason some of us are published (alas, not me) and some of us have agents is because of your fine critiquing skills. It's only a matter of time, Jamie. You're a great writer. I'll be first in line to buy your book when it's your turn.

And then I can interview you and review your book, too!
