Latrobe Bulletin puts my new novel on her front page!
Want to read an e-preview version? For Free? I’m eager to have a bunch of reviews ready to go when the book launches at the end of May. I’m sending out finished drafts to any reader who wants one. No obligation. My hope is that readers will write even a short review for amazon, but it’s not expected. Get in touch at storyteller@chrisrodell.com
Today’s post: “Confessions of a straight guy who detests fruits in his bar”
• "Tweets of the Month; a Feast of Morsels"
Random afterthoughts …
• I’m unfamiliar with the procedure, whether it involves either a seamstress or an exorcist, but I have to imagine when one "darns" a sock one is condemning the sock's soul to heck.
• Anytime I hear someone in charge say it's time to "re-think" a misguided decision, I automatically assume zero actual thought went into the original decision.
• We used to snobbishly brag how we never watched TV. Now we speak almost exclusively in movie reviews.
• For the litany of health benefits it is known to bestow, I have for about four months been going to the gym 5 or 6 days a week. Biggest change I've noticed so far? I'm getting real good at counting to 12!
• I’m like most dads in that I'm not without my faults. I make mistakes. I screw up. I'm a flawther.
• We live in an age where people display more affection for devices that play music than for the music devices play.
• Your typical pessimist suffers from pre-traumatic stress disorder.
• At some point this week, I hope to come up with a theory about why a gun isn't called a bang.
• The quest has ended in disappointment since the dawn of man, but every decent herb factory has at least one thyme machine.
• I wonder how much the bucket lists of people who own bucket factories differ from the rest of ours.
