A good day

Today turned out to be a day of good news, for which I offer my thanks to the friend who bitchslapped 2011 and demanded that the New Year live up to its implied promise.

First, I heard from Madame l'Agent that the new proposal passed muster, so it's been sent on its way. ("Good-bye! Good luck! Call when you find work!")

And then I came home to an unexpected royalty check. Yes, the German language edition of the Bewitching Kittens anthology is indeed the gift that keeps on giving. Because, of course, an anthology of Halloween-themed stories set in Regency England is naturally what you expect to be a perennial seller in Germany. Based on my quick math it's still selling thousands of copies a year. As I've said before, never underestimate the power of a cute kitten on the cover.

Maybe we should all have kittens on our books? DEVLIN'S KITTEN, I can see it now...

Yup. Now I get to be neurotic waiting for a response.

YEA!!!! I am glad the bitchslap is working for someone.

And the thought of the cute kittens selling well in Germany is going to keep me amused all day. Just so you know.

Go kittens! And bitchslaps that work. :-)

There's nothing like a good pagan when it comes to administering a proper bitchslap :-)
