...Things that make you go ..phew!...

Thank you to those readers of Persuading Jo who have emailed me. You have no idea how your positive comments made my day! I have had a few people ask me in person why on earth I would want to write "smut". Hurumph, it's not smut!, was my reply btw, along with 'people like me, who like to read it I would think!'. But you know I enjoy the challenge being that I am so new to all this, I get to be inventive and have fun, and hey, if I can make some $ along the way, who am I to complain?

I really need to say thank you, thank you, thank you to Loose Id who gave me a chance and the great editing of Bob and Raven, and, of course April's lovely cover! Sheesh, I sound like I am the academy awards or something...'I would like to thank my mother and 5th cousin twice removed and the mail man...

I even coughed up the $$ and went and printed myself a copy in colour for me to put on my shelf/wall to drool over. Talk about a prime motivator to do more!

Well, I am off to our 'mid winter christmas curry' at the best Indian restaurant in South Auckland -- I hang out for this curry for all those years of living in Florida, so I should look rather more rotund in approx 3 hrs time...then its off for drinkies with the mates for the rest of the night. I might be coherant tomorrow morning...or I might not be...

update : Curry was goooooooddd! Drinkies were too, but I was a responsible sort since I was driving home :)
