Clearly it is so overgrown with things I can't remember what I do and don't read, but I digress) I wasn't sure what to expect. But I enjoyed it all. Your complete enthusiasm for using adjectives to describe almost everything is enviable. As is yours and Kate's love of American food - something I must admit that I also enjoy. I mean, what is there not to love? Did you know that in Auckland there is an American specialty food store? I've been considering placing an order for ages but just haven't taken the plunge. Until then I find Kirby's fulfills my US candy fix.<br /><br />I think I saw the two of you at the Papershoes opening night, although I didn't get a chance to say hello, I suppose it was all the alcohol and that jazz.<br /><br />Anyway, this is long enough. Congratulations on the book, that is absolutely amazing, and I wish you all the best! :)Jamie-Lee Burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03498763389308171052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6882957900081933460.post-40780141408750106292012-06-08T15:24:10.288+12:002012-06-08T15:24:10.288+12:00A book deal!

The obvious passion for your craft is plainly evident in your writing, as well as in all your other endeavours. Good luck too for being brave enough to take the plunge to pursue your dream; I dropped a career to become a chef, & soon it's about to take off on another tangent. Stress & uncertainty about the future are inevitable; keep your friends & family close & ride it out. You'll be sweet :)Nigel Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13350611651161046055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6882957900081933460.post-38452322008488255192012-06-08T11:28:02.419+12:002012-06-08T11:28:02.419+12:00Oh you totally cracked me up with the whole busine...Oh you totally cracked me up with the whole business of getting teary over the spice girls, lol!

How wonderful, though, to know that in doing so you've got the clear goal (and profit, wheee!) of the cookbook and freelance writing ahead of you! And while money doesn't come from nothing in the first instance, butter comes from cows, so everything will definitely come up shiny.<br /><br />You are the most magical at all the costumes. You and my beloved-much-missed Jeniqua would get alone so well in that department; she has an entirely cupboard of Things For Costumes including the most hilarious extravagant wretched 80s wedding dress. It has all the things.<br /><br />Also, Viva Forever ALWAYS makes me feel sad.

I'd like to think my ode to crying over the Mama video somehow influenced your first post-98 Spice Girls cry; after all, you comment on their 'best of friends' appearance, as showcased in Mama by fake footage of them as youngsters being chummy. But I know that you're just another truly heartwarming fanatic!<br /><br />Congrats, Dino Queen, on taking the giant unemployed leap into the unknown. I've been wanting to work on my writing in the five months I've been unemployed, but I've been in the wrong mindset, and my location makes the type of writing I want to do illogical. And anything but pinguid.Emmahttp://ofagatesandmadeleines.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
