...send that sucker out again.

Came home to the worst of all rejections from RoF -- a hand written scrawl saying "loved the writing, but...." (I'd been warned she'd bought a similar themed story just recently, so it wasn't a shock, but still grrr). Out it goes again on Monday.

On the plus side, in my mail box were also copies of the reprint of the Australian edition of BRING IT ON. Which is exactly the same size as the original Australian version but with the original US cover (the first Australian edition used the first pass artwork that we'd rejected -- I'm not sure why they did that) and reset the type to make it smaller. Oh, and it's a smidge cheaper. So yay!

EtA: entire thread so far is about Castle, not the return of the reprint. I am hereby put in my place. *grin*


Am very very very pleased to say that STAYING DEAD is once again available in mass market (and the author stops pulling her hair out and muttering dire things about the warehouse software glitch)

http://www.eharlequin.com/storeitem.html?iid=11931&cid=

(hopefully soon B&N and Amazon will get the memo, too. and yeah, Powells, I'm looking at you.....)

Go, buy a copy! Buy a copy for yourself, for your friend, for the parent who wonders why you read "that crap' (hi dad. nope, statute of limitations still hasn't run out on that comment).

And, to celebrate this return to availability, there's a slight change to the on-going contest: the winner will be able to choose as their prize a copy of either Staying Dead, Curse the Dark or Bring it On in mass market!

Meanwhile, who here fell off the sofa when the cop on "Castle" last night mentioned sleestacks? *raises hand* And then showing us the evidence board (which I had just been writing about in Pack of Lies), and repeating the motif again in Castle's storyboard, and having the two leads consciously stop and acknowledge the connection in their professional lives...and then moving on, without missing a beat -- and oh, the moment when the two of them are trying to figure out what's next in the why-he-dunnit theory, and both hitting the "oh f**k I'm screwed' moment where they couldn't figure out the next plot twist...

I really do fangirl this show, hard. Acting and writing and directing, all. Thank god it's not on Fox, or they would have canceled it already.

Any other Castle fans out there? And if you're not watching, why not?
