BRAINPAN LEAKAGE

In case you didn’t catch the previous blog about that Evil Miranda Woman, I’ll give a quick recap- Dorothy Morrison and I ended our recent book tour at 13 Moons in Occoquan, VA. One of my lovely and talented fans took it upon herself to arrive at the signing decked out in some provocative Dominatrix attire ala Miranda, the antagonist in the last two RGI Novels (books one and two of the Miranda Trilogy.)

All I can say (could say, can say…) is WOW! She did a great job, looked stunning, and played up the part to the delight of all in attendance throughout the day and evening long signings and workshops. I actually think more pictures were taken of her, and of patrons standing with her, than there were of folks with Morrison and me! (Hmmmm…One of my own characters stole my thunder…How’s that for gratitude? )

Anyhow, I promised to post pix when I got them and never let it be said that I went back on a promise. Yes, some the pictures showed up in my email last night. I say some because only one person sent me pix and I know there were several folks clicking shutters…I suspect I will be getting more in the not too distant future.

Now…These may already be bopping around out there on myspace sites, personal blogs, and what have you. But, since I promised as soon as I received my copies I would post some of them so that everyone could gawk, I am doing so …

Therefore…Here you have Suzanne (or should I say “Mistress Suzanne”?) dolled up as her own version of Miranda from the Miranda Trilogy of the RGI Series. She tells me she’s not really as mean as she has made herself look…I think I believe her (grin)…

But, I suppose I could be wrong… (wink)

Look at her smile…Something tells me she was really enjoying herself! (LOL)

Hmmmm…Maybe the real Miranda needs a “bondage broom” too?

I think this one gives the blurb tag line “…Wild, Dark Ride!” a whole new meaning.

There you go. Me, Miranda (aka Suzanne) and a little bit of horsing around. (Pun intended…) I’m going back to 13 Moons in late August of this year, and I’ve already been told that Suzanne is working on a whole new outfit. I’ll confess that I am looking forward to it, and I’m betting there will be more pictures. Good thing I’m just a harmless old flirt or my wife wouldn’t let me go to this gig (LOL).

You know…Now that I think of it, maybe I should just get Suzanne to show up at booksignings across the nation. Now that’d be a hell of a publicity stunt. I wonder if I can find a way to fit it into the budget?

More to come…

Uh-huh…

And that doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface. At the moment I am parked at a table in the lounge area of a wonderful metaphysical store in Sanford, Maine, called the Universal Healing Center. Just like the last time I was in Maine, it is rather warm outside. Not quite as bad as the last go around, but warm nonetheless. Fortunately, this place actually has A/C.

But, as usual, I digress…

We have been on tour now since Thursday last, (5/17) and it has been a long road. The tour itself has been wonderful, filled with visits to great stores and with wonderful people. In many cases even old friends.

Since I am currently at a store, I am technically “working”, however I had a few minutes of down time so I thought I would check in as promised. This is actually the first unfettered access to the internet we have had during the tour. That, in and of itself, is a story.

Either way, the purpose of this blog is to let everyone know we are alive and well– basically that means I haven’t killed Morrison yet (GRIN) and she hasn’t killed me– seriously though, things are rocking along and we have been having a great tour. Of course, we HAVE had our obstacles…

Blog topics you can expect in the near future (once I have returned home and have time to type them in) will be such things as the following:

Pigs On The Wing

Kicked Out Of Wendy’s – An Indianapolis Odyssey

Low Batteries and Driving In Pittsburgh

Mister Patel’s No Tell Motel and Escape From New Jersey

Jane: The Bitch in the Box

Morrison and the Booze Run

Who Needs Sleep?

PIZZA PIZZA PIZZA!

And many more…

Some of these topics will be combined for blogs, but hopefully that list of titles will give you an idea of what we have been up to for the past 10 days.

BTW, Morrison is reading over my shoulder and she says hi.

Till later!
