New e-book!

[andpuff]

Okay, technically not really  new since it's been out for a few days but this is the first chance I've had to post so it's new to live journal.  That's my story and I'm sticking with it.  Or to it.  Or ish.  There's some weird italics happening in the Nook version -- thanks to  theniwokesoftly for spotting it -- but I was already feeling like I'd delayed telling

My copy is upstairs. Hmmm...wasn't that the one recommended to me because my friends were convinced that the characters were based on...have to go back and check. :)

Yes, that's the one. I was trying to figure out if there was a tactful way to ask if it really was.

The Pretenders? They weren't. I've never actually seen the show.

No, The Professionals. Kind of the UK's answer to Starsky & Hutch.

I don't actually see that close a resemblance, either in appearance or personality, but other people have claimed to see a similarity.

On the other hand, the main characters in the Point books by Melissa Scott and Lisa Barnett have an uncanny resemblance to Bodie and Doyle.

Duh! The Professionals! I knew that... I used to watch The Pretender but I've never seen The Professionals. Still not based on them. :)

[kajicarter]

It was a good story either way. :)

New Points book/story coming out! (I saw it listed one place as a novella.)

If it was the Pretenders, someone asked me at a conventions once. It wasn't. I've never seen the show.
