Manuscript due! New book out tomorrow! Bonus *awwww* video!

I don't know about you but this is a busy week for me already! There are good things and bad things to say about having a manuscript due the same week an new book launches. On the good side, I haven't had the luxury of hunching over the computer and refreshing my Amazon numbers every thirty seconds or so. On the bad side, I've had to cram some of my publicity stuff into odd hours of the night ... so, warning, some of the guest blogs and interviews that'll be coming out in the next few days might have moments of fatigue-induced weirdness or general TMI.

But, happily, I turned the fourth Mustang Ridge book in last night! (Yay, me! *confetti* *streamers* *Muppet flail*) And now I have a whole day to attack the post-deadline crusties in my house, stalk my Amazon numbers, and write a newsletter for tomorrow's big book release.

Pause for subliminal message: BUYWINTERATMUSTANGRIDGENOW ... BUYWINTERATMUSTANGRIDGENOW ... BUYWINTERATMUSTANGRIDGENOW

So I'll keep this short and sweet ... but in the spirit of Superbowl ad hits (Budweiser puppy!) and misses, here's one of my favorite Youtubes, a go-to when I need a pick-me-up or a sniffle. It's long (7-ish minutes) but worth it, plus worth having the music on. Because, Vangelis.

  1. What fantastic vid. I don't remember this making the news although some of my 2006 was very busy with family stuff. Happy pre-release day. :)

    1. Glad you enjoyed it! I don't remember this being in the news, really, but it went through the horsey message boards like a happy virus. (Okay, bad metaphor, but you get the point.)

  2. I totally remember this vid flying through digital horseyville not long after I started blogging in '08. It's wonderful footage. ::Sniff!:: Now I'm wondering why I didn't run it? Anyway, Happy Release Day Eve! Congrats, too, on sending Mustang Ridge IV off to the trainer's. :)
