1. CREEP fan art. Want to see what my protagonist, Dr. Sheila Tao, looks like through the eyes of the amazingly artistic Carrie Butler? CLICK CLICK CLICK! It's too good not to see! Thank you times a million, Carrie!
2. A made-just-for-me cowl neck scarf by the insanely creative Alma Katsu, author of THE TAKER (and a fellow Gallery Books girl!). I squealed when it came in the mail today.
I've been feeling extremely blue this past week, but who wouldn't smile with friends like these?
Much love, guys.

ReplyDeleteAwww... thanks Yvonne. *hugs*
DeleteI love the art work. It's good to "see" Sheila Tao--and, hey, she doesn't look JUST LIKE YOU! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great scarf! Someone's been a good girl lately to receive so many wonderful gifts, eh? But you deserve it, so ENJOY!
Doesn't she, though? ;)
DeleteI don't know if I've been a good girl, but perhaps I've done one or two things right...
awesome art work, awesome scarf, TOTALLY AWESOME YOU! :D xoxo
ReplyDeleteMel! You're awesome too. I am only a reflection of my friends. :D
DeleteSorry you've been down recently, Jennifer, but those are two fabulous reasons to be cheerful.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ian. :)
DeleteAww, I love that scarf, it looks really cozy! Glad you are feeling a bit better now!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kyra. It's a really nice scarf and fits perfectly!
DeleteBoo for feeling blue, yay for awesome friends!
ReplyDeleteAnd you're one of them! Thanks Sophia.
DeleteSorry you were feeling blue. I'm glad your friends made you smile. =o)
ReplyDeleteFocusing on the positive, and friends are the best reminders of that. :)
DeleteThat IS a nice scarf.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ben. :D
DeleteAren't friends awesome?
ReplyDeleteYes, especially when they're NINJA friends!
DeleteYou know you've made it when fan art starts rollin' in!
ReplyDeleteRight? I felt like a superstar when I saw it.
DeleteThe fan art is awesome! And the scarf is so pretty. I'm glad they brightened your day. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Cherie, they really did.
DeleteWow how cool are they?
ReplyDeleteVery cool.
DeleteAnd cool that Djoker won the Australian Open! TOO BAD MY DVR STOPPED RECORDING 20 MINUTES BEFORE THE END OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL.
Yes, still mad about it.
Awesome art and freakin' great scarf! We love you! Don't feel blue. Feel purple.
ReplyDeleteBut I've been a little grouchy over here too so trying to be nicer. Is it the weather? Or maybe the tides???lol
I owe you an email. And I think feeling purple is better than feeling blue, you're right.
DeleteSuch fun surprises!
ReplyDeleteYes! And when they come in the mail, that's pretty cool too.
DeleteAww yay! The fan art looks awesome and love the scarf too. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Ghenet! My first home made scarf ever. :)
DeleteSad to hear you've been blue :( *pushes happy vibes your way* But yay for that amazing fan art and scarf - looks so toasty! I'd be jealous of your warmth, but it's currently a bagillion degrees Down Under, so...yeah.
ReplyDeleteHope things keep picking up for you :D
I wish it was summer already! But the scarf will help me this winter. Thanks for the happy vibes, Caitlin!
DeleteGood friends--what better reason? :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear you've been blue.
Thanks so much. :)
DeleteAww, you're welcome! Hell, if it kept you from being blue, I'd paint all the time! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the shout-out. <3
P.S. Your scarf is lovely!
Two words: CARRIE ROCKS.
DeleteThe very concept of fan art is uber-cool. You deserve every accolade thrown at ya, or placed at your feet! lol
ReplyDeleteCheer up, maybe the Pats will do better next year. :)
Didn't love them that much... I just hate to lose. :P
DeleteI feel blue too! I hope we both feel better next week. The scarf is beautiful and Carrie is very talented!
ReplyDeleteI hope we do too. Sending you giant hugs.
DeleteThat's such a perfect Sheila! How awesome. Hope you stop feeling blue!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Meredith! The fan art is just too cool.
DeleteFan art? Too cool. Now you can say that you've officially made it as an author!
ReplyDeleteRight? How awesome is that?
DeleteBeautiful! The picture, scarf, AND drawing! ;D
ReplyDeleteAwww! Thanks Casey! :)
DeleteI'm assuming she either knows you envision Lucy Lui in the movie version of Creep, or you two are on the same exact wavelength, because that pic definitely looks like Lucy! And your scarf is fantastic, and you look beautiful and very fashionable (I love that jacket, too). So, I hope you cheer up soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks Alexia. I love that jacket - just wish it was warmer! Appreciate the good vibes, my friend.
DeleteOhhhhh!!! I loved that "cover"!! And Fan Art? That sounds awesome!! First time I've heard of it, though. You rock! :D
