Seriously: As I've had comments in the past as to characters whose descriptions did not necessarily match what the readers pictured, I thought this would help to suggest "looks" for the characters, for those who like them.
This is just another attempt at word-of-mouth promotion of my novel, since I don't have an advertising budget, and don't like to resort to spamming sites. I mean, I thought $3.50, well-produced in multiple formats and no DRM might be something they'd be happy to mention! And I didn't even rate a front-page notice around here! Whatever happened to shameless promotion? Ya gotta
work at everything now!
Oohhh, times are tough, y'know? I called a publisher to try to sell my book, and when he heard it was me, he told
me to pay
him!
Y'know, I tried to have the book vanity-printed. I told the printer it was an e-book, and he said he'd call me when he got in his shipment of e-paper!
I went home and told my wife about it... I said, they're all prejudiced against e-books, because they're too small to hold in your hand! She said that's a shame, because you've got plenty of experience in things that are too small to hold in your hand! I tell ya, I get no respect, no respect at all!

...oohhh, did I just channel Rodney Dangerfield? I hate it when I do that (his ties look awful on me)! I probably should've given him the Vasqual role...
