Waiting for Book 5 - the Untold Crack Story

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

I haven't made any crack in a long while, so it's time re-earn my Sounis court title. I'm bringing court titles back!

I've had this idea for awhile now, but I didn't feel it would be nice to Megan while we were still waiting for news of book 5. Now that we have a release date for "Thick As Thieves," I decided it's time to laugh at all that trauma now behind us.

The following is based on a true story. Sorry, Megan... I'm not complaining. I promise! We love you!

Warning: Picture and GIF heavy, so if you have a slow computer or internet, be careful.

Shortly after the release of A Conspiracy of Kings...

Any funny waiting for book five stories you'd like to share? What did you do to celebrate the annoucement of Thick as Thieves?

:D !! The first Sherlock gif nearly did me in. The knitting one likewise. And then Rory's "Can books look sad?"

Flawless. *ok hand emoji*

(What are court titles?)

When I wrote my TT discussion post, I used three colors of highlighter for three chapters. It's not hard to imagine someone going over the text with a literal magnifying lense. XD

Back in the old days, most Sounisians had an official court title they picked for themselves. They're collected somewhere in an old post, which I don't recall the location of. Mine is Lady Jane of the Valley of Parodies.

That meme image is called the Waiting Skeleton. Appropriate! XD

A scene from my next book

Know that would come back to bit me. XD

I hope everyone appreciates the sacrifices I made to get dinasors into the books. ;) My evil plan all along...

Haha, it's not a *dragon* but it's close!

Don't worry Lady Jane, Megan only threatens death by giant carnivore for people she really cares about. (http://sounis.livejournal.com/211520.html?thread=4812864)

She only threatens the people she loves. <3

The ones with the reaction to the new book covers are spot on. It's happening! Everyone remain calm!

Also....that we may never have a matching set of hardcovers is one of the biggest fears of my adult life. I've already trolled Greenwillow's FB page, obnoxiously begging to PLEASE release hardcovers for all of them. Maybe if more people did the same, they'd get the hint. HINT HINT.

Thanks for the cool storyboard, Lady Jane; it's right and properly reprobatish!
