PuppyBack Writer!

LOL Couldn't resist that one! Happy Hump Day from the Book Boost! Today I want to announce our new economical packages. We have the Budget Boost and the Big Blast now available. You can click here to access our Packages page and read all about it. Be sure to check back here Friday for a special offer on our Contest and Freebie Friday!

I've decided to condense down our packages into 2 easy choices and of course I'm still offering up my custom designed book trailers. You can view those here on my YouTube Channel!

Speaking of trailers, be sure to get those entries in for the trailer contest here at the blog. Deadline is coming up soon and you can win free promotion for your winning entry. Click here for contest details.

We don't have a guest blogger today so I'm posting some Author/Writing jokes for your amusement. Hope you enjoy!

---------------------------------------------

A writer died and was given the option of going to heaven or hell.

She decided to check out each place first. As the writer descended into the fiery pits, she saw row upon row of writers chained to their desks in a steaming sweatshop. As they worked, they were repeatedly whipped with thorny lashes.

"Oh my," said the writer. "Let me see heaven now."

A few moments later, as she ascended into heaven, she saw rows of writers, chained to their desks in a steaming sweatshop. As they worked, they, too, were whipped with thorny lashes.

"Wait a minute," said the writer. "This is just as bad as hell!"

"Oh no, it's not," replied an unseen voice. "Here, your work gets published."

---------------------------------------------

There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer.

When asked to define great, he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, howl in pain and anger!"

He now works for Microsoft writing error messages.
