Thank God it Came on Time!
Andrew sent me a postcard!
Andrew Shaffer’s How to Survive a Sharknado and Other Unnatural Disasters came in the mail yesterday. Tomorrow (Wednesday) night, Sharknado 2 premiers on the SyFy channel. Yes, I will be watching. And perhaps live-tweeting. And referring to “How to Wield a Chainsaw Like a Boss” on page 53. I may have issues though…we only have electric hedge trimmers…
Ah, well. Unless the next Sharknado happens in Lake Champlain (which has a Nessie-like monster named Champ, but no sharks) I should be OK.
Meanwhile, the writing update…
Out of seven days, only two or three were “good” or “acceptable.” I always underestimate the weird random stuff that life can throw at you. Like sharks. Well, no one threw a shark at me, but I do have two extra teenagers in the house for the next nine days.
May God have mercy on my soul.
I’m not sure whether to be concerned or relieved to see that there is no listing for Nessie in the book…

Good luck with the teenagers. They’re worse than sharks, unnatural disasters, AND juggling hedge trimmers. Blindfolded.
If I survive the teenagers, I might be ready for a Sharknado next…
It’s good to know you are keeping a positive attitude. Just don’t let the teenagers read the book, it will only give them ideas. And I have yet to meet a teenager who didn’t already have enough ideas.
Lord help us if they get their hands on a chainsaw…
One of our local bookstores had that book for sale and I almost picked it up because, y’know, you never know! What was even more tempting was the Pop! Sharknado figure (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=FNK12010&mode=retail) — Heck, I’m still considering getting it because it’s so cute!
Ha! OMG that’s adorable!
