I think I'd have to start at the beginning of the series though, I hate starting mid-series :-)Sarah Tokeleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13273148070092101085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4421706587311875668.post-18431207364022862732012-02-28T20:08:35.552-07:002012-02-28T20:08:35.552-07:00Oh yes, you will have to get the rest of the serie...Oh yes, you will have to get the rest of the series.

I though...I didn't recognize the actress, Jon. I thought that Ryan had some of the funniest lines of the night. "As you wish." "Ever since I watched Chucky I can't look at dolls." He was on his game last night. LOL<br /><br />Maybe LDS Publisher moonlights as a writer for Castle and used your story! What? It could happen . . . :)Julie Coulter Bellonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07695605817809301518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4421706587311875668.post-80167136671710854372012-02-28T14:19:17.654-07:002012-02-28T14:19:17.654-07:00Castle was wonderful, but there's been one thi...Castle was wonderful, but there's been one thing nagging me ever since. The actress who played Sleeping Beauty - what else has she done? She looks so familiar and I just can't place her. <br /><br />I loved when Beckett says something like, Wow, Castle, that's really well thought out and reasonable. Actually, there were a few very humorous comments from Kate in this one.<br /><br />Ok, here's the weird thing for me. A few years ago, I submitted a short story to LDS Publisher for a Halloween contest where the villain used a detached bear claw to simulate an animal attack.

I hope you feel better soon. It's funny you mention the author's name on the cover, though. With my book, All's Fair, I was stunned at how big my name was, it looked almost as big as the title! But even with that, it's still my favorite cover. And I think you should definitely do the cover design thing. We need your creativity out there! :)Julie Coulter Bellonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07695605817809301518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4421706587311875668.post-57820797102011751602012-02-28T11:40:56.287-07:002012-02-28T11:40:56.287-07:00I know how to make tortillas!

And they're delicious homemade fresh off the griddle. <br /><br />I almost laughed when I saw Tristi's book cover, not that it isn't nice looking, but that her name is so small and tucked down at the bottom. One of our classes at the ANWA conference was given by Deirdra Coppel, a graphic artist who not only is an author, but does beautiful book covers. One of the peculiarities of LDS women writers is we undervalue our names and have a tendency of putting them very small at the bottom of the book cover. I guess I never noticed it before, but when I saw Tristi's name exactly as Deirdra described, it hit me so ironically that someone who has had three books previously published in the series, she should have her name pronounce much more than it is. <br /><br />I'm planning on going back to college for a semester or two and updating my degree to include graphic art. I plan on rectifying this problem with our dear sisters and start designing book covers while pursuing my publishing dream. <br /><br />I forgot about Castle. Sheesh ... But I have a good excuse. I picked up a cold at the conference and feel like so much used Kleenex.Debra Erferthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08239033133090036826noreply@blogger.com
