Although I write as Linda M. Au, I live my life as someone slightly different. When I’m not writing or proofreading, I’m playing adventure games on the computer or crocheting some poor soul an afghan she probably doesn't need. Or I’m meandering around Sam’s Club searching for huge vats of salsa. Or I’m buying office supplies and wondering why I'm not at my desk writing.

For several decades I've done office and freelance work as a proofreader, but I’m phasing out that part of my life in favor of writing. I’ve been on the wrong side of the publishing desk for too long.

Yeah, we’ll see how that works out. . . .

Head in the Sand—NOW ON SALE! $8.60!

The powers that be at Amazon.com have put Head in the Sand on sale temporarily … and of course, like any author, I’m totally out of the loop on how long the sale will last. I just noticed it myself purely by accident. (The author is always the last to know….)

Right now, the book’s listed at  $8.60  at Amazon.com:

So, if you’ve been waffling about buying the book, NOW is the time! We could all wake up tomorrow and be back in the Land of Full Retail Price, so hurry and get them while they last!

And truly, Jeff Bezos did this without asking me first. He’s just crazy like that.

    As a fellow Alphasmart user and Nanowrimo participant, I was tickled to learn about your book–congratulations! I’ve just ordered a copy via Amazon with a handy $5 off gift coupon I had been saving for something special. I’ll soon be mailing in for my autographed bookplate. Way to go, Linda!

    Thanks, Liz! The combination of an Alphasmart and NaNoWriMo revolutionized my writing completely in 2004. I’d never be without an AS now and I’d never consider November quite the same without doing NaNoWriMo. Love ‘em both!

    Thanks for buying the book, and yes, do get a bookplate. It’ll increase the book’s value by pennies on the dollar, methinks. ;)
