"They're crossing the bridge!" That excited info was from my single copy of THE LAST SECOND who knew the moment my 50 copies from the publisher started their march across the Golden Gate to my house...

Would you believe I was idiot enough to bet my only copy of THE LAST SECOND on a pool game? Yeah, I lost, but I can win it back if I can sink the 8 ball. Hmm – isn’t that battalion of pool balls blocking the hole illegal? Or just plain rude?

Do you know what came lurching out from behind a sand dune on Ft. Myers Beach, Florida? No, not a sand crab....

Blowing out candles on three cakes is tough to do, but where there's a will – hey, enough time and I got it done. Bummer, the Birthday Wish Fairy said instead of three wishes I could have only one granted, IF I would eat another taco. Done! One of my male friends wrapped THE LAST SECOND (my only copy and yeah, that's pretty cheap) and wrote on it: With Love, Your Dream Man. (I do hope he wasn't talking about himself.) Bet you can guess what my wish is. A birthday coming up for someone? The buy links are pumping up ready to sing "-- and many more."

You won’t believe it, but some malcontent reader tried to nab my brand-new copy of THE LAST SECOND...
