In which I refuse to take responsibility
Yesterday I found this posted on Facebook by the ever-so-lovely Jayne Hoogenberk, all-around media guru for my publisher and generally charming person. I would like to say I felt guilty, but I really didn't. In fact, I think Jayne may be the first conquest in my plan for dark-brunette world domination. I am posting it now as a general warning to others...
One of the many things I'm responsible for here at Harlequin, in addition to managing our Community and Social Media properties, is the creation of book trailers and videos to support the online marketing of some of our books. So you know, I have a number of video interviews scheduled in July with some of our fabulous authors one of whom is Deanna Raybourn, author of the Lady Julia Grey series for MIRA Books. Now Deanna is a particularly favorite author of mine, and an all around lovely person, and I've inhaled each of the books in the series and was eagerly awaiting the publication of book #4 and really looking forward to chatting with her about it.
So in preparation for meeting up with Deanna in Orlando, I requested a copy of her latest book (to be released in October) the highly anticipated Dark Road to Darjeeling. Her wonderful editor Val, sent me an electronic copy and after much hopping up and down and squeeeing I downloaded it to my Kindle and took it home with me to read. Everything was fine until...
...I coloured my hair and forgot about it while reading the opening chapters of Dark Road to Darjeeling and accidentally turned my medium brown hair into a hue somewhat reminiscent of hmmm, DARK chocolate. As in really, REALLY dark brown chocolate. Which I thought I was getting used to...
Jayne went on to post a picture of herself with her new cocoa-bean tresses, which I think look particularly fetching on her.

Another main advantage of the new movie on dvd format is that you can play it on other Moives & Others consoles such as a pc, laptop or Thrills/Crime/Mystery a games console that Sci-Fi/Fantasy has the ability to be used as a Star Trek Series player. This means that if you do have limited space in your Horror room you will still be able to benefit from being able to watch Exercise/Fitness whenever you want to. You can also get software that Drama will allow you to copy a Concert/Music within minutes, without any hassle. All you need is a Comedy on your computer and a blank disc, this will allow you to Classics make a backup in case you ever lose or Children/Family damage the original disc.

That is the ultimate
That is the ultimate compliment of the book!!!! And a unique way to discover a new "look".
Orlando
Forgot you are to be down here--I think--Life has been so busy--Is it July and where can we find out if "you are open to the public"? I'd love to go out and meet you--as I recall -this may be totally wrong--but are you staying at the Swan near Epcot? It had to do with the floods in Nashville I think--
I'd suggest the Wizardry World of Harry Potter at Universal to see, but it has been terribly hot down here, and it just opened so it may be terribly crowded
There's always Kennedy Space Center which has had some of the "Attraction dust" rubbed off on it, but is still really interesting to visit if you're at all interested in the space program, and Nasa Headquarters being in Houston
All I can say about Jayne's hair color change is: I CAN'T WAIT TO READ THE BOOK.
Hope there might be a chance to meet you when you're down here.
Lovin' it!
I've been getting a lot of compliments actually so I think I'm sticking with the deep, dark tresses....AND Deanna's plan for world domination!
Jayne
That has to be one of the
That has to be one of the most fantastic/hilarious things I've read in a long while. I'm making a mental note not to multitask while reading that book...
remedy?
You might want to mention to her that if one immediately soaks the over-dyed hair in mounds of conditioner for a good 20-30 minutes and then shampoos and rinses multiple times, and repeats it all over, a considerable amount of the pigment comes out. It is probably too late, but it could be attempted.
