By their books, you shall know them.

Hi everyone. How's everything? Please, I would like to ask you all a favour. Please, please, and please. I am on my knees. Yeah, seriously, I am typing this while kneeling in front of the laptop. Hopefully, technology will have a way of decoding to you that I am speaking the truth.

If you have read my book, I would need you to do a quick review for me. If you already have an amazon account (which most people do), its straight forward. And if you don't, just sign up and do the review, actually, it is very easy. One to three lines is okay (if that's all time allows you to type). Please, please and please... I am really begging you o. Just search for Antonyms of a Mirage on amazon. It doesn't matter if you got it free from me, you won it through a giveaway, or you bought it. Please, do the review. And yeah, especially those who I sent the soft copy to for free, and those that won it. You should pay this price naa... just kidding, lol. That's to tell you how serious I am.

In other news, guess which writer I hooked up with... Not once but twice? Yeah, you guessed right. Abimbola Dare, the author of The Small Print. We first hooked up at the Olympic Park at Stratford, then three days later, we ran into each other at a barbeque party. Imagine chatting with someone in the morning, not knowing that you had the same plans for the day. We spent like five hours together, although for few hours, I was screaming at the TV, along with the married men, rooting for Mo Farah and Usain Bolt while they were doing their thing (it was the last Saturday of the Olympics), while the women gathered together talking about... well 'Women things' (I was the only unmarried girl there... I think).

By their books... (Actually, she's on heels, I am not that short, lol)


Check out her wonderful smile

    The pictures are nice. Lol @ you're not that short; I actually never thought she was this tall (even with the heels like you said)
    Debonairs has decided to hold on to my book; I don't even know what sin I committed *sigh*

    1. Hmmm, I don't have an audio book yet o.

      Funny enough, the book is actually short stories, drama, etc. So I guess it would work for you 'sad and bad attention span'
