Gypsy @ The Right Time

[SummerlongBoots]

Stevie fans are the only people I know who will get this.

So, I have a short story being published in a book coming out on the 9th of October. Promotional materials haven't come out yet, except for a mock-up that I received in an email. The book is like a kick-ass version of Chicken Soup.

Anyway, I was thinking of ways to start the self-promotion, especially since I'm seeing Stevie on Monday night. I shrunk down the mock-up of the book and thought I could make bookmarks, or postcards.

Thinking, thinking, thinking and then, as I was standing at the kitchen sink snipping some flowers I thought, "some lace and paper flowers."

That's it! I'll get some small, clear plastic bags and fill them with tiny paper flowers and tie it with lace and I'll attach the little book! I'll drop it off at the 107.3 The Eagle booth and ask them to give them away. "Stop by and pick up some lace and paper flowers."

So, I gather up what I need at the craft store and I'm at the check-out. The woman asks, "what are you making?" and I tell her the whole story. She wishes me luck and off I go . . . I get in the car, my mind is racing, I turn on the radio and I CANNOT BELIEVE MY EARS. Stevie is singing, "lightning strikes, maybe once, maybe twice."

I nearly cried! LOL!

I still cannot believe it.
