What other ideas does Ariel have? I'm sure she's a veritable font of genius and is plotting to. . .I mean, planning to contribute more to the cause!

So, to paraphrase, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas? Methinks not. Nice story but use protection.

What a pleasure to read. A wonderful, bright interaction. Lighthearted with a tinge of speculation of what was to happen. Thank you for morning enjoyment.

Ooh. . .I remember that book and it elicited a chuckle! And Marco? Please! He sounds more delectable than that heart-shaped chocolate mousse!

You've given me an idea. . .hehe

Oh, I was chomping along enjoying every bit of this, you are such a good writer, then all of a sudden-I stop. "You're only young once," amazing I say to myself. I was young once, and it was only once. I do hope Marco and the young woman, although sidedishes, serve each other.

Thanks, Richard, and as long as I am able, I intend to keep providing stories!

Brilliant Sal. As usual you evoke a story with a few words and leave me wanting more my friend.

Why thank you, Stang! I'd already done three foodie pieces, so wanted something else! <g></g>

Been long enough I almost forget how, but like Rebs smellin their own farms, this is down home.

Great twists and turns here Terrie. Love the play on the prompt. In your usual (unusual) creative way you bring to the table another work worthy of consideration.

Ok Ed you have the floor again and me in the peanut gallery is wiping tears from my eyes from laughing...you have such a twisted bent mind and I love it. The images - OMG I'm going to have that image in my mind for hours...

Re: How App-propos!

The easiest way is to have your document in RTF format and then use CALIBRE to convert it to MOBI or EPUB or most anything else you might want.

In case you aren't familiar with RTF, you can save files from MS Word in that format, so all you have to do is have the text in MS Word DOC or DOCX format to begin with.

Also, you might consider using a publisher who will handle all the conversion and distribution for you. My publisher does all that, plus editing, for a percentage of the sales. I think it is well worth it to get my novels on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other sites in one easy step..

Please feel free to ask questions.

Yours,

I agree with Tlrelf about needing to hold a physical book in my hand, but when the computer came with its keyboard and monitor, I retired my IBM Electric typewriter. Maybe a Kindle is something we can get used to. I am trying to learn how to convert manuscripts of mine into Kindle editions so I could sell a bit at Amazon.com.

I had sent in a second entry (the longer one) to the wisdom contest. I hope it gets posted before the deadline. But more than that, I hope to see this excellent site up and running optimally soon!

Unfortunately, no Thorn sighting; I did see an empty bottle of Menage a Trois wine outside my house though...

While you all know I wouldn't mind having a nook or a kindle, I am oh-so-fond of holding the old-fashioned kind of tome. Being able to cart a library around in something that weights about a pound is appealing, though.
