What happens

when the chatty, friendly, very interactive singles website you belong to finds out you’ve been writing a book about a chatty friendly very interactive singles website?

Actually, I have no idea. Clarissa - wait for it, wait for it - Rodgers-Briskleigh is about to find out.

How about that name? rolling on the floor laughing

I asked, oh a while back now, for a name that would conjure up a bit of fun, some naughtiness, and that was an almost immediate suggestion from a a very well-known blogger with a very dry sense of humour. I asked if I could credit him and he was, well, evasive. You can guess anyway, right?

I know its not good to start rumours, but my sister's boyfriend's auntie's friend's hairdresser has it on good authority that professor Plumb did it in the Billiard room with the Candlestick holder. They didnt say how miss Scarlett died.
Calleis, there really is no-one to name. The characters are a mash of Wizard of Oz characters with second-timer singles characteristics, the story is a story about Dorothy's adventures, if you like, and Dorothy doesn't exist either. laugh

It isn't a Peyton Place with hundreds of characters, is what I'm saying, and if anyone DOES see themselves in any one character, they'd be fairly, um, unusual people. It's a romp, no more no less, and every one in it is linked to a Wizard of Oz character in some way, except the women - that book is a bit short of women, when you go looking. Glinda the good witch and the unnamed witch at the beginning and Auntie Em - that's the lot!
Pat, those are my OTHER books. And yup Colonel Mustard in the library, that's the one on the drawing board, I may message you privately for plot ideas rolling on the floor laughing
Send it over? SEND IT OVER? rolling on the floor laughing Cal, spend the euro, darling, and when we meet one day I'll buy you a coffee as return of investment!
Biff ~ I would prefer to actually buy the book, if you want to mail me the name on my profile mailbox. It sounds great !!! Thanks for explanation, and yes, being somebody who sells a painting from time to time, I do know just how hard it can be to get a decent price, and the trouble you have to go to , to get the right audience, and then they haggle. bouquet
A smart website owner would insist you mention his site favorably in the book. Perhaps offering you a years supply of free email if you do.
Ken, maybe they'll offer me free membership? daydream

I'm just grateful this punt didn't get deleted, I was sure it would be, just hoped I wouldn't get deleted along with it. Thanks Mods teddybear
Biff applause hug

How can I get hold of that book? dunno
Well biffers, you expect us to buy you a coffee AND to buy your book before letting us read anything, and here we are, your virtual friends.

I must say though I read the sample and it was entertaining! Still not sure if I want to pay .99, LOL. but I liked it a lot and was quite drawn into the story. bouquet
Some do ... and after talking to one reader who is convinced it is autobiographical and I am telling my own story, I would just say that anyone who ever forced a Leo on me would be limping for a good while after. And nothing to do with a trick knee, either. boxing

No it is not autobiographical. And anyone halfway through wondering if they can take the pace any longer, the pace changes completely after that slightly alarming point. Also any similarities to CS start rapidly vanishing. It's FICTION.
Yes, the Leo escapade got me a bit upset at the beginning. I'm glad things turned out the way they did. cheers
Cheers, Calm. He did have to be a bit of an animal, really. To fit the theme. laugh Hope you enjoyed. wine
