Friday almost Saturday

July 27, 2012 | Filed under: Stuff

And I think Friday Almost Saturday should also be excerpt day. At the moment I’m at a writer’s conference (RWA) in Anaheim, California, and I’m currently stalking all your favorite authors. I’ll post more pics soon but in the meantime, here’s another except from FOREVER AND A DAY to further entice you. SIX MORE DAYS until it hits the shelves!!! Sorry, did I shout that?

Excerpt:

“…First of all, he’s a doctor. He gets a lot of points taken off for that.”

“People usually add points for doctors,” Mallory said.

“Not me,” Grace said. “I was raised by a few of them, remember? Trust me, they don’t make good relationship material.”

Mallory squeezed her hand. “Honey, Josh isn’t like your family. He’s warm and loving.”

“Not to mention hot as hell,” Amy added.

Grace shook her head. “Sorry, the points are already deducted. And taking into account his schedule, and then the standard deviation from the average man’s schedule, I figure ninety percent of his time would go elsewhere. I’d never get uninterrupted coitus.

“Penis math,” Amy said. “Impressive.” She looked at Mallory. “See, this is why a guy shouldn’t date an accountant.”

p.s. to see the pics I used during the writing of this book, go here to my Pinterest account.

  7. MarcieR says:

    These things need to come with a safety warning like this:
    If reading at your workplace – Spontaneous laugther followed by weird “what’s wrong with you” looks will occur.

  8. MarcieR says:

    I don’t even know what to say. That’s a funny conversation… Though, I’m thinking Mallory is the sanest one of the three at the moment.
