I worked on my first Kickstarter and it got approved! It’s for the Special Edition Hardcover of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 1: Archer and the release of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7: Spinster. I contacted my graphic designer about the Special Edition Hardcover of vol. 1: Archer—it’s going to be SO beautiful! The Kickstarter focuses on the Special Edition Hardcover, but it’ll also include vol. 7: Spinster so that it’ll sort of be like a launch day for vol. 7, too. A third special thing that’ll be in the Kickstarter is Special Edition Paperbacks of all the books in the series. They won’t be available in stores, just in the Kickstarter (and later, from my website, and also in my Patreon book box tiers if I decide to do them). The Kickstarter is not live yet, but you can follow it to be alerted when it has launched. (You may need to create a free Kickstarter account.) Follow Camy’s Kickstarter
Captain's Log, Stardate 05.26.2009
I grew up eating octopus, also called tako in Japanese, so for any of you grossed out by that, you have to realize that it doesn’t seem strange to me since I’ve eaten it all my life.
We know lots of people who go spear fishing, and we’d often get fresh tako to eat. We don’t eat it raw, it’s always boiled.
Here's grandma cutting the tako into bite sized pieces.
This is a piece of the tako before cutting. I'm not sure what part of the body it is.
Here you can kind of see the tentacles.
Captain Caffeine obligingly took this photo so you can see the suckers.
And here he is eating it. Yum! It's a little chewy but usually pretty soft. It doesn't taste fishy like, well, fish, but tastes a bit like abalone. It also doesn't have that metallic flavor of clams or oysters. The Captain and I both love it.

P.S. Last week for some reason my computer wouldn't let me on your blog. Were you having some techinical errors or something or was it probably just my computer, lol.
