Got a bit of good news today. I received my second ever royalty check from my publisher today! So that's exciting. Kind of still hard to believe that people are buying a book I wrote. Weird! But exciting. So this one I am going to actually cash. The first one I kept as a souvenir. LOL here's my book at a couple foreign book stores. http://www.bokkilden.no/SamboWeb/produkt.do?produktId=2128961http://www.libreriauniversitaria.it/at-feet-moon-how-moon/book/9781424127696It's also available through ChaptersAlso they have recently agreed to publish one of my kids books as well. Previously they were not publishing children's books, so this is also exciting. Especially since I recently met someone who is willing to do the illustrations for it. This Moon book, is not actually one of my favourite books I have written, kind of rushed it off to publisher after it sat in my closet for a few years. I much prefer to work on any of my children's books. Those I am proud to put my name on. But a foot in a door is always good!

Yes, it was cool. I was letting my dog out for a pee. After pretty much bumming around all day, headache and kinda bummed out. Then my landlady called, she's gonna put in a good word for me at the one place I applied last week, her good good friend. And I checked the job bank and another Pub just down the road is hiring a day time bartender ASAP. So again, great tips and good for socializing, too which I love. So maybe by this time next week, I'll have two jobs. Things are looking up.

She's got lots of brothers to protect her! As for the honey bees, looks like they got their own kinda protectors as well. I kinda always pictured tiny bees wearing ties and top hats, not too sure about sweaters, or Velcro for that matter. lol
