The Day After Hump Day
August 16, 2012 | Filed under: Stuff
Did I tell you I was in this month’s Cosmo magazine?

Okay, so I’m not in Cosmo, but my book is. An excerpt of FOREVER AND A DAY has been adapted. Cool beans, right?
Did you read it yet? No? Here’s an excerpt for enticement.
The morning went so smoothly that Josh got an actual lunch break. He met Ty and Matt at the Love Shack, Lucky Harbor’s bar and grill. They’d beaten him there and were seated at a table hunched over Cosmo magazine.
“It was on the table when I got here,” Matt said in his defense.
Josh eyed the open magazine. “You don’t already know how to satisfy your boyfriends in bed?”
Matt ignored this. “Did either of you know there’s ninety-nine ways to give a blow job? That’s ninety-nine nights of blow jobs.”
“Look at you with the math skills,” Josh said.
Matt flipped him off while Ty flipped the page. “‘How to Give Your Hoo-Ha a Spa Day.’ Huh,” he said. “I didn’t know a woman’s hoo-ha needed a spa day.”
For those of you who have FOREVER AND A DAY already, where did you find it? Digital download? Target? B&N? Walmart? Inquiring minds want to know.

My copy zoomed through the ether to reach my Kindle at 12:02 AM on release day. By 12:03 AM, I was already deeply enthralled.

Kindle on my iPhone. But I will also buy a hard copy for my collection. Probably at the Walmart. I buy my groceries there. I am a lazy shopper!

Digital download. For someone who swore she would never give up her books and I haven’t entirely because I just can’t I am now the proud owner of two e-readers. My family thinks I’ve lost my mind. Naw. Love my Nook e-reader because it’s wireless and I can pre-order books now.

I bought it at Target. The Wal Mart closest to me did not have it when I looked.
Your excerpt made me laugh out loud all over again!!
Love the humor in your books. Thanks.

I got it at Target on release day. I used to always to to the K-Mart local to work to try and spread the luv, but they stopped carrying books.

Hanging head in shame… I won a copy;) It was just as wonderful as I expected… the hoo-ha part kept me giggling for an hour!

Target – but the best line between the guys was when Ty told Josh to write himself to “man-the-f@%k up”. I was so laughing.

Target! Congratulations on the Cosmo excerpt!

Print. Ordered it in advance from Amazon so that I could get it the day it came out.
Posted on August 16th, 2012 at 12:36 pmRenee says:
I got mine from our great little local indie book store here in Grand Haven, MI. I had a ‘frequent flyer’ $10 certificate there, so it was a freebie for me. Gotta love that. Really enjoyed the book!
Posted on August 16th, 2012 at 1:05 pmJudy F says:
Amazon I think. LOVED IT.

Straight from B&N to my NOOK. I have to say it was fabulous. There were so many laugh out loud moments and I was sorry to see the story end.

Mine just showed up on my doorstep…

Okay, confession….I don’t have it yet. I’m hoping one of the booksellers at RWNZ conference will have copies (but that’s kind of a long shot – finding your books in NZ is really hard).
So if that’s a no-go then I’ll be ordering it from BookDepositoryUK (free postage worldwide!), my kind of deal.

My favorite local library. I suggest they order your books when you announce your new titles. Put them on reserve then when they are ordered and come in they call and tell me to pick it up. Just started Forever and A Day last night.

Walked into Chapters and bought all three (Lucky in Love, At Last, Forever in a Day). Read them all while on a week’s vacation. My son challenged me to “not read” for an entire day (he’s 9) – I lost the challenge Just couldn’t put the books down LOL
