It’s a funny thing about excerpts, we never know how long or short to make them, or just what to show. The one thing we do know is to be careful about wording, like the ones we found in the classified ads… Dog for sale: Eats anything and is fond of children. We do not tear your clothing with machinery… We do it carefully by han3 year old teacher needed for pre-school. Experience preferred… Mixing bowl set designed to please a cook with round bottom for efficient beating. Then again, if we made these faux pas we’d be getting enough rejections to paper the foyer of a museum.Angelica Hart and Zihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039421402209142423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966643399208052103.post-40744688852209298342009-10-28T21:15:12.051-04:002009-10-28T21:15:12.051-04:00Neas Nuttiness!

Some days we’re serious, some days we’re funny, some days we eat cheese steak, cheese cake and Doritos and some days we eat celery but that’s Ang’s idea, keep saying we need healthier foods…. Ah, but I digress… A: That’s right celery helps you digest. Z: Digress… (Says in a loud tone as she has headphones on) A: (Pulls them off) You don’t have to scream. What about chess?

We are so happy to see you here, you always have a good thought for everyone, and are always there to show off Champagne Books and their authors in a brilliant light. Kudos. After doing this blog, we sort of felt like Shrek… you know as Donkey called him… onion boy… peeling off the layers. Although, I think Donkey had it right… we should opt for cake… that has layers, too!Angelica Hart and Zihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039421402209142423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966643399208052103.post-87335728951017847922009-10-28T21:04:29.384-04:002009-10-28T21:04:29.384-04:00Ah, MarthaE, you didn’t just read KILLER DOLLS, yo...Ah, MarthaE, you didn’t just read KILLER DOLLS, you gave it a fabulous review. We’re still preening, and of course, let everyone on the planet know about it. Having said that, thank you for your continuing kind words. We shared our history somewhat as a reminder to ourselves to keep taking it all a rung at a time, up and up and up, knowing all the while the rungs will never end. Yet, when experts like you compliment us, it gives us that moment to pause and celebrate. In turn, just to justify your words, we simply must turn out something even better, cause it’s all about engaging… you… the reader.Angelica Hart and Zihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039421402209142423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966643399208052103.post-16034547860175335242009-10-28T20:59:05.767-04:002009-10-28T20:59:05.767-04:00Hi Linda aka Kaylin McFarren, a wonderful author a...Hi Linda aka Kaylin McFarren, a wonderful author and a totally blow you away book trailer for Flaherty’s Crossing!

For us, writing together has totally made a difference. Getting that male and female perceptive has added depth to our work.

It is fabulous seeing you all over the blogosphere. Isn’t cyber space wonderful? Anywho… rejections have their place. It’s not that you get them, it’s what you do about them. You can sit and cry in your pillow or subscribe to the wonderful philosophy of the singing group Chumbawamba in the song Tub Thumping… We’ll be singing… When we’re winning… We’ll be singing… I get knocked down… But I get up again… You’re never going to keep me down… We add a really cool dance step when we do this but if anyone ever saw us… errrr… let’s just say blackmail material.Angelica Hart and Zihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039421402209142423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966643399208052103.post-32490101084638580282009-10-28T20:25:13.181-04:002009-10-28T20:25:13.181-04:00Hi Anna, We appreciate your taking the time to re...Hi Anna, We appreciate your taking the time to read our post. That’s what life is all about, the journey. We truly never get there, and we’re still on the path. According to a Chinese proverbs, “To get through the hardest journey we need take only one step at a time, but we must keep on stepping.” And that is what we just keep on doing, never worrying about if we get there but happy to keep that slow and steady turtle place. Slowsky family… move over.Angelica Hart and Zihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039421402209142423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966643399208052103.post-55987122967929430792009-10-28T20:16:27.916-04:002009-10-28T20:16:27.916-04:00Candace, your commentary is always full such compl...Candace, your commentary is always full such complimentary words, we are grateful. As for the insightfulness of our posts, as well as that which I believe can be found in our characters I (Angelica) must relinquish any claim to it. Zi has this amazing way of finding the pin in the haystack. When I find it, it’s cause I sat on it by accident. Seriously, because of his true and total adoration of women, his need to create strong female characters because he believes in the power of women, and his undiluted respect for them, he has insights into the female character that astound me. Much like the depth found in your work, especially your latest release Full Throttle. Looks like a great story, and it is on my TBB list… to be bought!Angelica Hart and Zihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18039421402209142423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966643399208052103.post-12001413606810276132009-10-28T17:56:31.509-04:002009-10-28T17:56:31.509-04:00nicee excerp deff adding this to my want listnicee excerp deff adding this to my want listSiNnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13975065072902528623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2966643399208052103.post-25931747139716516982009-10-28T15:54:24.526-04:002009-10-28T15:54:24.526-04:00What a lovely guest post.
