Books and Flowers

Brent has been a fan of the author David Liss for a long time (I have just recently become a fan as well and tell everyone that likes historical fiction to go and read his books) and Brent had wrote to Mr. Liss about the time that we got married, so 4 years, to tell him that he really liked his work. Mr. Liss wrote Brent back and then requested Brent on his myspace. We had thought that was the end of it but about a month ago Mr. Liss writes to Brent on his myspace asking if he would like to recieve an advanced copy of his next book and review it on the web. Of course Brent was pretty excited about it and then he recieved the book about a week later. It is called the Devils Company and is the third of a series, the first of the series is: Conspiracy of Paper, and the second is: A Spectical of Corruption. The Devils Company comes out mid July.

We have a few rose bushes downstairs from our apartment and today I decided that I really wanted to have some flowers, so I went down and cut a few of them. I wasn't sure how they would look in a bouquet because they were very open but they turned out really beautiful.

It´s so cool to get a book straight from the author! I´m so jealous!

That is really cool- that Brent got a book direct from David Liss! The bouquet you made is beautiful too- so talented!
