In My Mailbox

I got some awesome books this week.... but I have to admit, what I am most excited about is having both Addict Boy and Lover Boy printed and bound. It's like they are close to being real books... even if this is for revisions to come... I also learned that while he tolerates books, Toby doesn't care for having two big manuscripts put on him.


Addict Boy is on the left, Lover Boy on the right... aren't they awesome and pretty?

    And our Tobys seems to have a lot in common. I could pile books on mine all day and he comes up with the strangest sleeping locations/positions. (He's been known to use A WALL as a pillow.)
