"THE WRITER'S ESSENTIAL TACKLE BOX"

This brief post kills several birds with one stone. (Metaphorically, though I have been known to kill pigeons simply by the force of my presence.)

1. It allows me to mention the wonder that is Lynn Price - see the BehlerBlog for advice that is sometimes even more in-your-face than mine and much, much funnier. And if I praise her enough she may invite me to stay with her in California and feed me margharitas and chocolate.
   
2. It allows me to recommend her surely wonderful forthcoming book, which obviously I haven't read because it's "forthcoming" and I'm neither psychic nor important enough to be sent a review copy. It's called The Writer's Essential Tackle Box and I'm absolutely certain that it is, so maybe I am psychic after all.
   
3. It allows me to show you the funniest and most wonderful promotional video you'll see this weekend, and quite possibly all year.

Now, please go and read the post (below this one, of course) that I put up earlier this morning, because it has more bounty from me and the Writer's Handbook, which I would hate you to miss. For those of us unlucky enough to live hundreds of miles from Lynn, there is at least the consolation that the free copies of the Writer's Handbook and money off the excellent day-long event are only available to us poor UK-dwellers.

Meanwhile, I really need to do some work. I seem to remember I have a book to promote. Talking of which, feast your eyes on this little video thing:
