seanan_mcguireAh, Saturday. A day for sweet relaxation. A day when the working author can at least pretend to get caught up on all her word counts. And, well. A day that marks Late Eclipses [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy] being exactly three days from release. (Yes, I know, some stores have it out early. This doesn't make me a happy bunny, so please stop telling me about it. OCD means never coping well when people change your math.)
Some people have asked me why, exactly, they should spend their hard-earned dollars on my books, rather than on all the other lovely things they could be spending their dollars on. So I am here to present you with three excellent reasons why you should buy my books. Take two. They're small.
Reason #1:
Reason #2:
Reason #3:
Buy my books so I can continue to feed the furry monsters that sleep with their many, many sharp kitten-teeth only inches from my tender flesh. (That's Lilly, Alice, and Thomas, in order. It's actually an older picture of Alice, but she was so damn cute that I couldn't resist.)
Three days!

Super cute. :) Glad to continue supporting cat feeding.

Date: 2011-02-26 08:28 pm (UTC)There is a very good reason number four, that being that the books just keep getting better, and one would miss out on the awesome if one were to not buy it. But there are three days left, not four, so it makes sense you left it off.

Date: 2011-02-26 08:42 pm (UTC)Reason #5: You're a terrific writer and these books are the gateway to your other work.
Reason #6: You are a genius-tastic hottie who needs to sleep some time, so you can write more books.

Date: 2011-02-26 08:52 pm (UTC)*There's an unfortunate fish-only rule at my school, and I already have two lovely cats at home. I graduate in two years. How long will it take me to bring home pets? Probably not long...
Also, I will look into buying your book after this week is over. No way can I buy a book right now, when I have midterms and papers this week. But your cats are definitely convincing reasons to buy. ;)

Date: 2011-02-26 09:41 pm (UTC)(my aunt has a cat that I believe to be part Maine Coon. However, from looking at these pictures, I know she has to be only part Main Coon, because she is SMALL.)

Date: 2011-02-26 10:53 pm (UTC)I'm sorry, but Alice and Thomas hardly qualify as Small.
But all three cats are adorable, lovely and definitely worth feeding. I not only buy the books, I addicted the daughter. The grandson found Feed on his own, he loves zombies. ;)
