Also, you will get at least one more sale of The House of Jacquarelle, but I need to summon up the courage. You see, I was flying with my Cybook when a really sweet, grey-haired old lady wandered up and asked if that was a Sony Reader. I said no, but it was very similar and asked if she wanted to look at it. She did. Thing was I was reading a bit of your Denial of Service sequence. Yes, one of *those* bits. "I think I might get one of those," said the lady returning my Cybook. I think puce would be an appropriate colour description when I glanced down at the book and realised what I'd just shown her.
(BTW, really enjoyed DoS!)

Ha! Well,
tHoJ doesn't have much of that stuff in there, but if it convinces people to buy, maybe I should start adding it!...
Actually, there will certainly be more like that in the
Verdant Skies sequel... nothing X-rated, but it will have over-the-counter-in-the-US-acceptable sex in it. (Tell your friends!)
As for aliens... I refuse to discuss any plot particulars, so I can't tell you whether the alien mothership will have been watching Earth TV since the 1950s...
Oh!
Gad! I've said
too much! 
Never mind.
