IÂ have some reading to do tonight! I should stop typing now, but I feel it’s my duty to tease you and let you know that I’ve got a six-question interview with Doug that’s all but ready to post. I just have to make it pretty.
HOT DAMN!
I need to go read now. This book is huge and most likely amazing!
