Earlier I had posted that you can now buy Lady Wynwood’s Spies, Volume 7: Spinster on my website. But I forgot to mention that for a limited time, if you buy the eBook or the paperback , you’ll also get the annotated edition eBook with Easter Eggs, behind-the-scenes tidbits, research notes, and random author commentary FREE. Once the book goes into Kindle Unlimited, I can no longer offer the annotated version on my website, so be sure to get it now before the book goes up on Amazon. 10% off coupon code for ALL BOOKS I finally got all the Lady Wynwood’s Spies regular paperbacks in my store, and if you use the coupon code website10 , you can get 10% off all the eBooks and paperback books in my shop! NOTE: If you’re waiting for the Special Edition paperbacks, those will be available in my Kickstarter later this month. Get 10% off https://camilleelliot.com/shop/

Here are the rules:
1. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
2. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
3. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
4. Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they're tagged, and to read your blog.
8 random facts/habits about me ...
1) I knit to write. My mom had taught me knitting when I was younger, but I picked it up again completely randomly one day. Then I discovered that when I knit, it helps me to write. So now I sit at my computer and knit a little, write a little, knit a little, write a little. I also knit to unwind.
2) I make cards. My friend Sharon Hinck is a Stampin’ Up demonstrator and she got me into it. I love doing it to unwind, plus I make thank you cards for editors and agents and my publishing house peeps.
3) I love reading Regency romances although I’d never write them. Most of my favorite authors are all either dead or else not publishing books anymore: Mary Ann Gibbs, Norma Lee Clark, Joan Smith, Jane Austen, Elisabeth Fairchild. I also love Carla Kelly and she just came out with a new one for the first time in years.
4) I have extremely flat feet. They are so flat, when I walk across linoleum, my feet make suction noises. I have to wear inserts in my sneakers to do aerobics, and I use Taryn Rose (Hysterically Expensive) boots when I go to conferences because they’re so incredibly comfortable that I don’t need my inserts.
5) I am allergic to crustaceans, specifically shrimp, crab, and lobster. The weird thing is that I can eat fresh-water shrimp (prawns), and I can eat crab grown in Hawaii waters. I think there’s some kind of toxin in the water of normal shrimp and crab that I’m allergic to. However, I can eat as many clams, scallops, and oysters as I want.
6) I love French fries. They are my favorite food. I must have them at least once every two weeks, although I try to limit myself to no more than once a week.
7) I stand when I work at the computer. I have my keyboard, monitor, and trackball elevated with boxes so they’re at the proper ergonomic height. It’s very comfortable for my back, and I sit every so often to rest my legs.
8) I love spreadsheets. I use them for plotting. I also use them for organizing the Genesis contest.

I'll post mine tomorrow :-)
Well, I've got mine up, go see!
BTW, I think God actually sent me here because your verse of the day really hit home, confirming something someone told me earlier . . .
blessings on you sweet one!
However, I can't imagine standing at the computer. I sit in a nice easy chair or in the recliner when I use my Alpha Smart!
Thanks for playing.

I have 8 random and 8 strange things up at my blog. Though after I've read yours I could probably write 8 more random things!
