I win!

In which I justify hours of late night messing around on the internet.

It was late at night, at that moment when you think, "I should sleep. I should escape this darn World Wide Web of Doom and sleep. But first, I shall check this ONE last thing."

So I checked my Google Alerts, and...hey!

Two of a Kind has been voted one of the Chicago Public Library's "Best of the Best" for 2009!

This means a lot to me since I spent HOURS in the Chicago Public Library, and was teaching there when I wrote Two of a Kind.

So then I thought, "I'll just tell the folks on Twitter about this."

And voila! I won a contest. Yes, from now on you must refer to me as "Almighty Queen of Imperial Visual Propaganda." All because I watched too much TV as a kid and love stupid puns (and so did/do the hilarious Tara Lazar and Mike Jung.

Hooray for the CPL! They have good taste.

I'm not calling you "Queen Jacqui," though.

Thanks! And Diane, I'll take "Your Royal Hilariousness" as well.

Yay! Go you! And a good excuse to check out CPL's list: chock full of good books.
