Books are media, right?
I've had this picture sitting in my camera since my last visit to my parents'.
My mother's read a couple of other novels by this author, so when she saw this at the library, she had to borrow it. (And she was laughing the entire time she was showing it to me.)

I think this was mentioned here before - the thread where we making fun of bodice rippers and their covers ... been a while though.
I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

Sorry - I don't get an image. Just the dreaded red X.

I've seen that book, never had an urge to pick it up.

Hey wait - I didn't give them a permit to use my picture on those books. Where's my cut of the royalties?

You get your royalties when I get the redhead.

If that's your picture, perhaps the statue of limitations has run out??
