a;slc;iod()&* it's real!

booraven22 got her copy of The Chalice today, which means other people will be getting theirs soon as well. Now comes the period of time where I fret over whether they love it, like it, or hate it. I'd rather they either love it or hate it. Liking it means I haven't achieved what I wanted to do, and that's present something that touches people in a primal way. booraven22 sent me a copy of her holding the book and I think I peed a little in my pants, figuratively speaking. I can't wait to hold the thing and come to grips with it actually being real.

In other news, I found out that you can live in most foreign countries and still receive social security disability. If I get my disability, I'm selling everything I have, including my ass at the local truck stop, to get the money to move to England. My aim is Avebury, but anywhere in the West Country would be fine for me. I have a goal now, a dream that has the ability of being realised. It makes me feel like a new person. I'll have to tell Rosa, my counselor, about it and see if she can drum up any official information on such a thing as receiving benefits overseas.

Maybe the bio on the third book could read that I live in the West Country of England and I'm still trying to find Cadmus' hideaway castle. 'Cos you know Eddie Izzard said that Europeans all live in castles. Right? Right-O.

Ohhhh, I have discovered David Guetta, so I shall be listening to him in copious amounts for a while. Get used to it.

I'll be getting my books no later than the 28th. Can I wait until then without having a Beeker attack? God only knows. Sophie has been incredibly communicative with me and most helpful. I can't ask for a better publisher than Fey Publishing. When they tout the phrase "see the world through different eyes," they truly mean it. I can't wait until it truly goes live on Amazon so I can show it off. I'm wondering if it'll be available on Barnes & Noble as well. There's just a part of me that hopes it shows up there.

We're planning on a trip to Asheville soon, at which time I'll be taking a copy of the book to Malaprops. Something tells me they'll be wanting to buy wholesale and pat me on the back for mentioning them. There are a lot of Ashevillian sites mentioned, but Malaprops is a bookstore. What bookstore wouldn't want a book that mentions them?

But all this hinges on whether or not I can wait until 28 September. I mean, man...KABOOM. That's how I feel. Maybe a nerve pill is in order. meemeemeemeeemeeemeee!

On a less freaked-out side of this post, if you receive your copy of the book, read it and want to write a review. Please do! Copy it to me and Amazon too. The more exposure I can get, the better it all is for the Tinlet.
