Pocketful of contracts
Last weekend I was happy--nay, ecstatic--to sign the Simon & Schuster contracts for Bad Company and its sequel.When I signed the contracts for the Aspect of Crow series, my mom insisted that my husband take my picture. Somewhat embarrassed, I agreed (we have to humor moms--it's the law).
Since I take a lousy picture when I haven't the privilege of a professional photographer and makeup artist (Google my name under "Images" if you don't believe me), and since I hadn't so much as showered, much less dressed and suitably coiffed myself last Sunday when I signed the contract, I hired a stand-in.
Meet Gertrude:
Gertrude is the mascot for Pocket Books (scroll down if you click), and yes, I'm a big enough geek that I asked for a stuffed kangaroo for Christmas so I could name it Gertrude.
And no, I will NOT be inscribing this little marsupial into my skin as a tattoo. Cute though she is.
