I'm technically still at work, so I'll just say congratulations! The books look amazing and there's nothing like real, print, author copies!

Thank you! And no, there's really not. I love ebooks and think they're wonderful, but I'm a very tactile person and it's nice to hold my words in my hands.

OMG, THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL! I want one! *runs off to enter competition*

*runs back in momentarily to hug you*

YAY! Even the suggestion that we'll be treated to more of you makes me happy! Also, that you are on my team for Pulpympics. :D

Fondue = sex. Huh.

Anyway, heeyyyyy! And here's hoping you get the jaw sorted.

:D - the competition is definitely open now, by the way!

YES. Runonopolis will be the champions or at least, you know, seriously impressive in their turnout and general ability and it's not the number of medals, really, it's the *quality* and is this run-on enough yet?

The fondue thing is about a line in which one character interprets it as a euphemism for sex (and gets dramatically jealous with drama that goes nowhere, yay) when the other character really does mean literal melted cheese. It's bizarre and, honestly, embarrassing in the movie (even if you don't know what fondue is, it doesn't sound like a sex-word, and ALSO, I mean, if Howard Stark blatantly asked Peggy Carter if she wanted to have sex with him, he would have died of stiletto-to-the-neck. Peggy would not have put up with that shit.)

I really need my jaw to stop hurting. NEED.

I tried to comment on the giveaway post, but signing in with either WordPress or LJ wasn't working, and I got cranky and walked away.

Guess I'll just have buy my copy. ;)
