Been sitting here BURSTING with this news all morning, but couldn't post it until rwday AKA eumenides1 posted it herself.

Her book is on Amazon!! No cover art yet, but I'm as squeeful as if it were my own!

*bounce bounce bounce * Go over to rwday and SQUEE at her. Better still ORDER THE BOOK. You won't regret it - It's wonderful. Post apocalyptic with a beautiful homoerotic theme running through it. *smooshes her* I knew her before she was famus!!!

I really need more icons. All the ones I've got are too Po-faced. *imports an over excited Fizzgig*

Oh and I need a mood theme. Any suggestions?

And in the spirit of OMG erastes gets grumpy in the heat - I'd just like to say, a pox on all agents. I've sent queries out and it's like peeing in space. It just doesn't go anywhere. I (stupidly, it seems) thought it might be easier if I were actually published now, but it appears not. *bites thumb at agents* in a vicious manner

And it's bleeding hot. Hot hot hot. Cooler now I'm home, but it was 94 degrees in the office.

Thank you! Am still not famous, but we're both getting there.

I haven't had a lot of luck (i.e. any) with agents either. I'm going to try again with the next book, htough.

NINETY FOUR??? They expect you to do anything but put your head down and sleep in that kind of heat? No way.

xx

I know. awful. and so lovely and cool here at home!

[asphodeline.livejournal.com]

Wow, book + amazon!!!! Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Off to look

oh and apparently I growled at my parents today. I don't do hot weather well either!

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Me either. I've been grumpy for days. And completely unproductive.

The book....

[anderyn.livejournal.com]

Has been ordered. Whooo hooo hoo. Congrats!

Re: The book....

It's so cool - I'm so pleased for her!

*joins in the squeeing* I just exploded with squee on her journal and then I asked you a question, which was stupid since I should have known you'd do your own post about it. Ignore that one and I'll ask it here: Do you know if we can order through American amazon or do we have to wait for it to come out here?

And also I HATE HEAT. isn't it like against the law or something to work in certain temperatures, like there's a low one and a high one? I'm guessing since you work in a world of lawyers that someone would know that, but I was sure there was an upper limit, a health and safety thing or something.

I looked on amazon.co.uk - it's not there, annoyingly. But you can order from amazon.com. You do need a credit card though - which I do not have. annoying again, as most places these days accept debit cards grrrr.

And no - there's no maximum working conditions, although there is a minimum. All they are obliged to do is to offer reasonable remedies like fans, cold water, ventilation, blinds.

Bitch Troll is campaigning for air con. The other building in the firm has it, and it's just surprising no-one keeled over today. I felt dizzy at one point, I should have just pretended to faint.

[rosie-red73.livejournal.com]

Bollocks, I don't have a credit card either. Oh well, they'll release it over here won't they? WON'T THEY?!

You SHOULD pretend to faint. They probably wouldn't have given much of a shit though, from the sounds of it. They ARE lawyers, after all. Maybe if you fainted and hit your head as you went down and then threatened to sue...

I use a debit card on Amazon.com. Though maybe your debit cards are different from ours?

I'm hoping it will be available from some other booksellers, but in a pinch, I can order for people and take Paypal. Though not you - your copy is reserved already.

[asphodeline.livejournal.com]

I have a credit card - just remind me nearer the time of publication if you still need one!

[erastes.livejournal.com]

aw thanks!

[erastes.livejournal.com]

ah - it's only offering me Visa, Mastercard, Diners, Amex, Discover and JCB. Mine's a bank card which just takes the money from my account. grrrr. i had a Credit card once and it took me years to pay off.

[aunty_marion]

It sounds as if I could use my Visa debit card from the Halifax for it, but I'm trying not to as that's supposed to be my savings account! I've used it successfully as a pretend credit card on LiveJournal (to buy another year's worth of time and more userpics), and on CafePress. But the Maestro one doesn't work, alas.

Could I please have an email address for you, because I've been emailing hpliteroticamods@gmail with no response. I then forwarded the message to the email address I had, UL@lj, and was told it was no longer working.

I would like to forward a copy of the email I sent to hplitmods to you - or possibly you could check that address? - because after days of waiting I felt it would be best to submit the post so you knew what was happening, as email wasn't working.

[underlucius.livejournal.com]

Sorry about that, haven't checked hp_literotica mods for months and months and underlucius, having left fandom - went dark. There are two other mods though, hon, and their email accounts were active.

erastes@erastes.com will always reach me.
