And what a fun guest Emily is. She has a game for us to play. I'm starting as soon as I remove my fingers from the computer keys. HOWEVER, I have to apologize for not showing the lovely cover of Emily's book, Vexing The Viscount. I have tried and tried and have to give up.

Thanks for having me here, Anita. I promised you a fun blog post, so here goes:
Today we’re going to play a game. I’m stealing it shamelessly from my friend Lori Philbin, but it’s just too much fun and I know she’ll forgive me. It’s called the STATUS MODULE GAME.
If you have a MySpace, Facebook, Twitter page, etc, you know the fun of mini-blogging, posting just 150 characters or so on your status bar. It’s random and odd and makes people wonder what you’re up to. Here’s how to play.
STATUS GAME RULES:
* Grab the book closest to you. NOW.
* Go to page 63.
* Find the last complete sentence.
* Write that sentence as YOUR status.
*
* MENTION the Title and Author of the book.
* Don't go looking for your favorite book, or the coolest one you have - just grab the closest one.
And as luck would have it, the closest book I have is VEXING THE VISCOUNT! At the bottom of page 63, Daisy Drake says:
“One wonders when they found time to conquer the world.”
Makes you wonder what came before, doesn’t it. When you post a comment today, post your best guess about what Daisy and Lucian are doing when she says this. As always, I’ll be giving away a copy of VEXING THE VISCOUNT to one random commenter so it doesn’t matter if you guess correctly or not. You’re still in the drawing if you comment.
And for extra fun, if you have a myspace, facebook, twitter, etc, it would really help me out if you would post “One wonders when they found time to conquer the world.” in your status module. Please let me know if you do. Thanks.
And thanks again for letting me visit with your readers, Anita!

I like my Status. The last complete sentence in Judith Rochelle's book, On The Run on page 63is this: "The client was a Texas millionaire who lived a lifestyle out on the edge."
That's me baby!
Well, that's a leading sentence. What sort of edge is he out on?
Hi Anita and Emily,
My Status is "She shook her head as she walked around the marks again, visualizing the room when it had been filled with equipment." This is from Cherry Adair's "Night Shadow."
Well I am glad the blog tour continues. Not near any of my books as I am at work but this sounds like fun. I am startng to read more ebooks than print and the formatting is different so I will try this with a couple fo different books.
My status is - "I'll have Danny book an appointment with the doctor." This is from Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill.
The last complete sentence in Lynn Hightower's book SATAN'S LAMBS is dialogue:
"And don't throw away my Cheerios."
It is an awesome book by the way :)
Thanks for having me here, Anita. Glad you got your computer gremlins sorted out.
Ok, when Daisy says, "One wonders when they found time to conquer the world." she and Lucian are reassembling a very naughty Roman mural. Roman art was sometimes very explicit and their life of the flesh was . . . adventurous, to say the least. Archaeologists were shocked at the "phallus cult" artwork they uncovered in Pompeii.
Hope you all enjoyed playing the Status Game! My DH has chosen LINDSEYE as the daily winner of a copy of VEXING THE VISCOUNT. Please contact me through my website with your mailing info.
Today you have 2 chances to WIN! I'll be at RaineDelight's Blog and MandyRoth's Blog. There's a different post on each site so please pop by both!
Thanks again, Anita!
