Perhaps a compromise… The Foodie and the Hitman?

Jenny! You look great! Bob looks human! Jen Maler is AMAZING. And now I’m off to preorder 10 copies.

I am telling absolutely EVERYONE to read all of Jenny’s books. Bet Me was my first – caught by the title – and then I had to have all of them. Cannot wait for this one, interesting set-up.

I’m sorry, but Bob is not cute. Cute is for little kids, and kittens, and mushy-gushy valentine cards.
Bob is HOT!

Love the pics. Just finished Bet Me and Faking It (not at the same time, though). Loved them both. Going back to the bookstore tomorrow for more Jenny books.

Hi Jennifer,
Kewl photo with puppy! I’m really looking forward to the book. April is a good month because that’s when I cry over my taxes and you and Bob can console me as I sign over the fat check to the fat guy, and I don’t mean Santa. I mean, your book can make me laugh in between my sobs. I hope to catch you at one of your scheduled stops! I’ll even hand the puppy a beer.

Twice in Madison, eh? I suppose my folks would drop dead of sheer shock if I visited twice in one year, though…

Ok. They edited out the light and cord for the cover photo.
Jennifer did hand me one beer. A great contribution to the entire ordeal.
For the record, somebody was also putting goop in my hair and using some device on it.
As far as whose name was one place and whose was the other, that never even came up. Because it doesn’t matter.
But I did notice the gator is eating my name and I’m not sure what subliminal message that sends.
And now back to Shane and the Food Critic.

Me again, anonymous. Apparently when you put in the funny looking verification letter and press the “login and publish” button it does just that. What a suprise. I think I now have a name but I quit the blog sign up process half way through when it asked me to name my blog.

So, how did you decide whose name was going above the “and”? Careful negotiation? Name that girl group competition? Target shooting? Or was it just alphabetical?

By the way, Agnes and the Hitman is a great title. Much better than Shane and the Food Writer. Much, much better.

April 4th! I knew that day looked familiar, it’s my husband’s birthday. I might have to buy a birthday present to celebrate the wonder of his existance and the joy our love brings to me. So, of course I will be buying a book for me.

(sigh) April is such a lovely month. Trees and flowers are awakening from their winter nap, shaking off winter’s doldrums as they begin to to bud and blossom in a vast array of color and life. Small wild creatures stick quivering noses out of burrows and caves to sniff the fresh air as colts and lambs and calves cavort in the new spring grass under their mothers’ watchful eyes. And Bob and Jenny’s newest creation will finally be here for our adoring eyes to read and devour and rejoice over. Aaahh, yes, April is a beautiful month…. Bless you, Jenny and Bob!

Sedating the puppy? Not without a 2×4

Ooohh, I LOVE IT! All of it. The cover looks good, I like the idea of making the hardback camoflauge. The author picture is great. You both look like you were having a bit of fun at that point!( Must be the beers.) Congratulations. I will eagerly be waiting for the release.

Can I say I love everything without coming across as syncophantic and moronic? Who cares! I love everything!

I know you say that DLD will be out in April, but what you’re talking about is the *official* published DLD.

But you have a copy, and Bob has a copy, and probably other people have copies… why so stingy with the copies?

It’s the Holiday season, and I’ve been good, and I would like a copy, please. Tout suite.

I have purchased many copies of your books. Hard back even. I have red hot Christmas cash in my pocket and will offer it to you. I also have a Horton Hunter Max 200 Crossbow — I think Bob would like it.

//hahaha just kidding thanks.
//Uh, not really.
//If I had Bob-like skillz, could I get my hands on an unofficial copy?? Could I?
//Why do you hate the Holiday season of giving?? Why? Why?

The book looks great, but your blog is a day ahead…unless you live in another country. It’s on 5 here in Oregon, so it threw me to see tomorrow’s date already.

Hope you have a great day!

I am so excited! The book motif is such a neat idea- that way I can get my dh to read it also!

Based on the pictures you blogged on before, I can definitely see why they picked that one- CUTE!!! (Sorry, Bob)

Looking forward to (hopefully) seeing you in Southern NE!
