Jennifer Crusie's Blog: Argh Ink

I know, I didn’t post yesterday but Krissie did on D&G so it’s all there. And I forgot to threaten anybody with death tonight so there’s probably no new post on D&G. But the high points are, we did the podcast last night, and it was tremendous fun (here’s Lani)–

–and then we had to go to B&N today so I scooped up some pens on the way out the door. When we got there, somebody gave me UMF to sign, and I signed it in blue ink and passed on the pen to Krissie and she wrote, “Ditto,” underneath what I’d written and signed her name. And kept my blue pen.

So I picked up the next blue pen I had and signed the book and passed it to Krissie who signed it with the other blue pen: “Ditto, Anne Stuart.” But my blue pen was lousy so I traded it out and kept signing. About an hour later, Krissie says, “Why were you signing with a sewing pen?” and I looked and the second blue pen was a sewing marker, the kind where you make the marks on the cloth and then it disappears twenty-four hours later.

So somewhere in the Cincinnati area is a woman with a copy of UMF that tomorrow afternoon will read only, “Ditto, Anne Stuart.” We are really, really sorry. (I blame Krissie.)

Oh and we talked out D&G this morning and then again at lunch, but as Lani said, “Look, we have to WRITE something,” so tomorrow morning, we’re writing. In real pen. Argh.

But we’re having a really good time.
