Yes, a cheeky question around here. But if you don't ask...

Anyway, I gave away a few hundred copies of Sand and Magic over Christmas. I've had quite a few nice emails from people, 2 good reviews on Amazon.co.uk, but I'm shy of reviews on Amazon.com...

The book is about 50,000 words and an adventure yarn about a 21-year-old racing driver named Amy Skylar. She's a fiery redhead and, after a fall from grace, takes part in the toughest race in the world. Her beloved father is against the whole idea...and she faces a terrorist threat...

If any of you would like to give it a go, let me know (warning: there are no vampires in this book! ). You can add your name here, or pm me, or email on: geoffnolan.com [at] gmail [dot] com

Cheers!
Geoff

PMD you, but just got a message on facebook, one of my readers is picking it up tonight to take a look at it.

After all, you can't get anything in this world if you don't ask!

Hey Geoff - Good for you for asking.

Love the premise, love the cover -- but between January being booked solid with exams (I'm not even writing *sniff*) and (um, more valid) you might have just seen the thread rehashing the Caitie's Banned For Life saga LOL - Amazon will take my money and let me sell books, but that's it *shakes fist*

I added you to my TBR list as soon as I'm done with exam torture!

GOOD LUCK!

No worries - best of luck with the exams. I do, however, expect to read my usual CQ-related tweets about online dating..! And why men are such jerks! Ha!! My conclusion to your male vs. female profiles - men are simply honest And now that I've shaken the tree, I'm off to bed

Night y'all.

edit: thanks for the compliments about the book!

Oh, trust me, the women's profiles were JUST as depressing! I just didn't have to write any for the book so I focused mostly on the men. But in case you missed that #GirlNotes: Women were just ask likely to say they were looking for a "successful" or "well off" man as men were looking for a hot girl *sigh*

We live in such enlightened times.

What Roomie got from the hours of researching with me: Thank god we're not ugly.

Yup, she's just as enlightened *snort*

I remember when I was in first year at university, I was getting on great with a particular girl one night. She was from a 'well-off' family. Talking for hours, things were going well until she asked what kind of car I drove. I told her I didn't own a car - I got the bus. She literally stopped talking to me and walked off. As an 18-year-old, that was hard to take, but it was a good lesson in life.

So, nowadays, I always ask a girl what kind of car SHE drives (okay I don't really but it's tempting..!)

Cool! If only my facebook crowd was the same. The only thing they seem interested in is drinking. Well, they are Irish...
Thanks very much, I'll have a look for you on facebook now.
