I’m rather excited because I have a small part in an upcoming film based on Steve Aylett’s book LINT. Remember how “Spinal Tap” was a spoof on Heavy Metal bands and “The Ruttles” was a take-off on The Beatles? Now, Science Fiction has LINT!

HI!
May is National Mental Health Month. We are happy to announce readergirlz has chosen Dia Calhoun's book, The Phoenix Dance, as our pick this month.
We hope you can stop by! Her full issue will run at www.readergirlz.com; you can drop her a comment at www.myspace.com/readergirlz, and then chat with everyone, including Diva Dia, at http://groups.myspace.com/readergirlz. Tell us about your favorite shoes!
Hope to see you there! Let's work together to bust the stigma against mental illness.
My mom used to make fun of Mother's Day.
She insisted that being a mother wasn't
something you needed a brass band for.
I can't change my mom's mind -- she died
sixteen years ago. So do me a favor?
Hug yours TWICE today, once for me!

thanks SO much for the sweet comment. It sounds like you have a wonderful library club, and I'm so honored that one of your students chose to spend their money on my book.
