Been one wild week--literally. Spent a day with a wonderful group of people at a library expo is East Texas, and sold every book I had with me. Then my first day at the zoo was Saturday. Already learned some amazing things and had a great time.
But by far, the best part of the week was taking the photos for the next book cover. Olivia--like with the alligator--was a trooper and handled the 8 foot Burmese python like a pro. We got some awesome photos, several that are perfect for the cover. Now we'll just have to choose a particular one. Thinking of having a contest to make the choice....???
Since it's sort of an ongoing joke at work, I decided to do an author photo. The reason it's an ongoing joke is they tease me about doing an author photo--didn't wanta do one--and I like to make fun of a particular author who is literally standing in front of a 10 foot self portrait!! in one of the back covers. So I decided to yuck it up and do a few photos myself. (See below) I swear the entire time we were working with the snake, Joe, it never stopped moving, but when I sat down with it and opened my book he stared at the pages as though reading it!! Honestly, it was bizarre! And the turtle, Toby, was on the move constantly. Definitely could have won a tortoise and hare race!
