Lettahs Fom Maine Marketing Strategy, Chinese Food With Side Order of Tums

I had Chinese food late last night. Around 12:30, I discovered that I can add Chinese food to the growing list of foods I can't eat after 7. Here is the new, updated list:

• Pizza
• Nachos
• Peppers and onions (which I don't like anyway, unless they are caramelized)
• Anything with cheese (see PIZZA and NACHOS)
• Chinese food

And so it goes. Lesson learned. I did get to watch something funny as a result of my terrible heartburn. I got out of bed, took some Tums, went into the living room, and turned on Seth Meyer's late night show, which I've never seen because I don't stay up that late. Anyway, John Oliver was on, talking about the World Cup. He is really, really funny. Almost funny enough to make me forget the burning in my stomach.

I've come up with a new marketing strategy for my Lettahs From Maine books. Actually, it's the only strategy I've come up with, and it's not much of a strategy. I've made flyers and I'm going to place them on the windows of cars in the beach parking lots. Genius, right?

There it is. A little rough and a little blurry, but you get the idea. I just hope other writers and marketing experts don't go stealing my great strategy.

I've now written 20,000 words of my latest novel. The working title is Lottery Winners. Gives you an idea of what the story's about, at least. It's a rainy day, in the 60's, so I think it's a good day to work on the novel.
