I’d Call this a Memoir...But Oprah might smite me
I want to test Lulu Publishing before taking my not-quite-finished novel there, so I thought I could compile some of my humorous articles and essays into a small book.
I originally started with 12. This makes for a very slender book unless I make the margins two and a half inches wide on a 6” X 9” book LOL
So I’m still digging through my computer archives for more material.
I was playing around with photos and artwork for a cover, since I can’t get my blasted modem to stay connected to the internet for more than 30 seconds at a time (sorry to all of you I usually visit and leave comments for).
With the big brouhaha that has been generated by the disclosure of falsities (which are not tiny shiny paste-on nipple covers LOL) in James Frey’s book “A Million Little Pieces,” I made up this pretend cover for my upcoming anthology (since the first article is about my broken leg).
Please read the entries for best Valentine joke below, and vote. I am simply adding new ones:
Entry # 7) from Stringman at Stringman
Entry # 8) from Stephanie at Mystical Incense
to the most recent post, because I am tired of seeing every other headline here about it, so I am sure you are too - LOL
Fighting a killer sinus headache, which is centered just above left eyebrow, causing left eye to spasm shut on occasion. Made the elderly man at the grocery checkout think I was winking at him. LOL
Stressed out about the boy/man’s theft of phone. Starting to wonder why I thought I could write a book, or even compile a book. Frightened of the strange growling noises coming from the computer.
I used to sell cemetery lots.
Honest.
I took a bunch of pictures of the cool stones there. I actually liked it, it was an awesome graveyard.
Found this other picture I’d done as a possible book cover to amuse myself, thought it might give y'all a chuckle.
May peace and joy be with each of you.

Hope that nasty headache went away.
Ya know, I enjoy lookin' at headstones. Does that make me weird? I've saw some pretty amazing stones! lol
I have always been amazed by weird headstones. Come on people, you're dead. Move on! Let's no leave a infinite trail of weirdness :)

Love the bookcover too funny! And, that tombstone is really, really neat!
...HAppy Valentine's Day to you.
Thank you for the good wishes, the headache is better today.
I am looking forward to learning more about Lulu!
Yes, I cloned a picture of the Milky Way into the center of a tombstone for that picture.
