Jenny Crusie's No.1 fan


Have I mentioned that I am lining myself up as Jenny Crusie's number one fan / stalker? I've read a couple of her books over Christmas, and jeez Louise, I am in awe. Am half way through another of her books at the moment and keep reading eeeny miiny little tiny chunks because I don't want it to end.
When she's in the early planning stage of a book, she builds these clever, gorgeous 3d collage / models to help round the story out in her head. (I know this because I am her stalker. Nuff said).
I am toying with the idea of having a go at making one, visual things work for me. I like to create the whole world of my book with pictures, sound tracks, so a collage is right up my street.

  1. I LOVE Miz Crusie! Heard her at a conf a few years back, glommed all her books and have been a HUGE fan ever since :)

  2. Love your new blog design! I love Jennifer Crusie's sense of humour in her books and her website is so helpful, so maybe I should start stalking her too. But I'll leave #1 fan spot for you ;)

  3. Glad to hear you guys feel the same about Jenny - I would have had to stop being friends with you both otherwise, lol!

    Thanks re the blog, Romy. I fried the old one completely last week so took it as a sign that it was time for a new year make over.
