With two guest appearances:
The winner (J.A.) has been notified by email, and what I didn't say in the video (I was just so surprised!) was that she was in my very first ever critique group, back in undergrad days, almost fifteen years ago. She was one of the very first to ever, ever read my work. It's so . . . fitting. (But I also wanted it to be you.)
That was really fun. I think I'll like this giving things away gig a lot.
Kisses. And a growl from Digit, because that means love in his language. (Really, it does.)
Martha Flynn says
my GOODNESS you are adorable
jodi says
Oh, Digit.
You know what I’d pay cash money for? Seeing Digit in Miss Idaho’s hat. Oh, yeah.
Helen says
Congratulations J.A.!
Digit is hilarious! I’m glad to know there are other kitties that show love by growling.
Jeanne B. says
Digit, such a friendly-sounding cat, LOL! He’s lucky he has you, as you understand him in a way not many others would. ๐
Congrats to JA! Lucky girl.
GoodEnoughWoman says
Gasp! J.A.? Your J.A.? Our J.A.? That’s so cool!
GoodEnoughWoman says
Duh. Just watched the video. Silly me.
Sherpa says
Goodness me that was the sweetest video. I was on the edge of my seat (and not even in the draw!)
It would be great if you could do little reading slots – with guest pet appearances, of course!
Amanda says
Wow. If my cat were making noises like that at me, I’d drop him like a hot potato, or there would be blood! He’s gorgeous – and so is Miss Idaho! And so are you!
Sarah says
So cute! All of you!
Dawn in NL says
Hi just wanted to tell you that you totally inspired me to join in NaNoWriMo this year. Last year when you were in it, I had never heard of it, and now, here I am joining in the craziness.
Good luck to us all.

Hey, that video was fun to watch — it didn’t even matter that I wasn’t the winner of the ARC. Cool that it is someone connected to your history like that.
Miss Idaho looked gorgeous – and Digit is just wonderful.
TMK says

My Shih tzu growls for love, too. His tail is swishing away, but growling at the same time. Love that Digit! ๐ (Never met him, but what a guy!)
Congrats to J.A.!
