oooooooh boooooooooks!
Man. Ever since i’ve gotten my Amazon Gift Certificate for using Jittery over there in the glaringly white box – I’ve been aaaaagonizing over what to get! I mean! the choices! Should I go for books? should I go for girly things? Should I just start randomly clicking? I could use a new organizer/wallet, there’s half a million things I’d love to read, there’s 2.5 million things i *should* read – how best to spend my valuable certificate? tell me! how!
I parused my wish list, I parused catagories, I went through and just randomly clicked, unclicked, sampled, and just. oh! the possibilities! *L*
So today I *finally* made my order, and made sure I qualified for free shopping so I could tuck another book or two in there [shipping costs to Alaska are HORRIBLE! I’ll wait an extra week for it to get here rather then spend half my certificate on shipping…) I changed, I rearranged, i finally decided *grin*
So – sometime next week, or the week after [again, AK shipping. heh. see the saga of my signed Terry Goodkind – that was IN STATE shipping!] I shall be the proud owner of:
2005 Writers Market (Writer’s Market) – when asking the Famous Author Catie Murphy [who happens to be a high school friend, eagerly awaiting the first of several published works to hit the shelves!] for how to get started tips, she said in no uncertain terms – GET THIS and Read it – it will help you tremendously! So I did. First even!
On Writing Stephen King – I heart Steven King! I’ve wanted this since it came out years ago, but never had the fundage. So, since I had the opportunity, I went for the paperback [read: cheaper] version – yay!
Hearts In Atlantis Stephen King. From my wish list – because, as I mentioned, I heart Steven King! It’s been AGES since I’ve gotten a new King story to devour. So direct from the wish list, here we go. *g*
Undead and Unwed (Berkley Sensation) Mary Janice Davidson – this, well, i had 6 bucks left as long as I kept to the free shipping selections and so on a whim I looked up Vampires – and found this. *chuckles* i read the first couple pages in the “see inside” way, and well, it’s light, frivolous, fun! Just like me! [well, I’m not so light. *L*] So on the list it went.
Total? I spent all but 44 cents of my certificate. Thanks Jittery! I heart YOU too!
PS. I’ll *really* heart jittery if I manage to win one of those mini ipods they’re giving away too. *hee!*
