What colour are you thinking of dying your hair?

And honestly, in either language, the name sounds pretty darn cool.

If you're asking, I'd suggest either a pale red (if you're interested in matching the season) or a very light brown(does chestnut come in a hair colour?)

Yeah, and thanks for the early birthday wishes.

I do remember a little bit from mein German classes. "Wer reitet so spaet durch Nacht und Wind...." Good old Goethe!

I sure hope they publish one of your stories. I like to read it. Have you got anything published in the journals?

what color you doin your hair?

When I first read the 'english' book title with my sleepy eyes i thought is say "The Oprah's Pistol" - thought it was gonna be about murdering Oprah.

Keep writing! Write in your journals and write out your novels.

Have you written any short stories for magazines? That is another avenue to recognition.

Never take rejections to heart, but you already know that.

Working in a bookstore as I do, I get to read all sorts of books. Someday one will be yours.

As an aside, my daughter was a big fan of Pat Benatar. I can't tell you many times I've heard "Love is a battlefield."
