I’m spending two weeks at the beach, which naturally brings on the rains. When on vacation, I’m used to hearing the locals say, “I’ve never seen it rain like this in July,” or “Thank God, the drought is over.”
So on the one sunny day we had in the first three, I stayed out too long and got burnt. (I was the one slathering on broad-spectrum SPF70 under the beach umbrella while my dark-skinned male companions were flying kites and basking in the sun.) They got scarcely toasted; I got roasted.
So yesterday while I was sitting on the lanai, writing and gazing out at the ocean, pining for sun and sand, the significant others made a sand sculpture of The Dragon Heir. It was the talk of the beach.
Isn’t it cool?
And here I am with the artists…..
Now we just need some dragon tracks into the water….
Another review of First Kiss (Then Tell) edited by Cylin Busby and here’s my story’s mention:
Hands down favorite for sheer grossness (it was so gross it was funny!) was Justine Larbalestier’s “Pashin’”, a tale of her friend’s first kiss.
I am the grossest of them all.
congratulations!
Ahhh! Why do none of the bookstores in this city have it??! Grrrr.
I think I’ll have to order it.
Gross? You? No! No one would EVER think YOU could be gross, Justine. I mean, I’ve seen some pretty disgusting pictures but I assumed they had all been photoshopped by your near and dear.
I feel sick now. Sick, I tell you!
John O’Grady - First proper kiss. I nearly died of shock when he stuck his tongue in my mouth. The teddy I’d practised long and hard on had never done that. He also tried to cop a feel through a duffle coat, school jumper, shirt and vest (Yes - although 14 I still wasn’t developed enough for a bra). I didn’t eat for three days afterwards (only tonsillitis has put me off my food for that long since) and I never spoke to him again. Ah embarrassment can make a girl very unfriendly.
Glad to say it didn’t put me off kissing though!
I can’t wait to read it. I won the contest over on Cecil Castellucci’s blog. *happy dance* None of the book stores near me have it either.
