Pay it forward.
GRAVY
- My first novel started with a mole. Yes, a MOLE - a freckle, a birthmark, whatever you want to call it.
- I was at the pool with my daughter getting ignored by our swim instructor when a lifeguard with a particularly ripped abdomen walked by. He stopped to flirt with one of the female lifeguards and my eyes flew directly to an adorable mole on the top can of his six-pack.
- "How cute!" I thought (among other things). "He looks like a character in a romance novel!"
- So I went home and started writing fiction for the first time. That was over a year ago and I still haven't been able to stop. GRAVY is the story of a suburban housewife who wants another baby, but gets a man with a mole instead.
- GRAVY is now available on Kindle and Nook!

Wow, she learned that one fast! Awesome! (And I can't wait to find out what she has to say about these pictures when she's a teenager.)

You are not the first person to take picture of their kid's first pee-pee. You are, however, the first person to post said picture on her blog.
Way to go, Genoa!

I used my "on the potty" picture for my 50th birthday this past November!

Dunno if you're the first, but I was tempted to do the same yesterday when I found a deposit of the solid kind in the potty. So exciting, this potty stuff.
Way to go Genoa!!
