Workin' On The Books
Woof. I have a lot of signing to do. I bailed on Carpenter banding this morning because I'm behind on some blog posts, I'm going hawk banding this weekend and need to get some work done if I'm gonna sit in a blind for two days, and holy cow you guys are so cool and have ordered a lot of books for me to personalize. My goal is to get them done this weekend and to commence the shipping on Monday. But, really, holy cow, thank you to everyone who has ordered a book, it's an overwhelming and strange sensation that something that started as joke between my and my husband got turned into a book and so many people enjoy it. I am truly grateful and never cease to be amazed by what a strange and delightful trip life can be.
I haven't found an ink I feel safe using on Cinnamon's paw for her to do a "pawtograph" and she would not be happy to have Non Birding Bill and myself hold her down and mark a bunch of books. However, she seems to tolerate running a book across her back (see how thrilled she looks?) so I can get you some Cinnamon DNA on your book (or at the very least bunny fur) and your book will absorb a lot of disapproval. It should be palpable when you open the package.
Last night I picked up NBB from work to go out and do some celebrating of the book's arrival. When we pulled into the liquor store parking lot, I saw Leann and Jon who designed and produce our Disapproving Rabbit shirts (by the way, Carri Ann, they LOVED disapproval gate). I fumbled in the car for a book and went to personalize one for them. I was so flustered because it was the first official autograph, it's illegible, I made up a word, and when I got to the actual signature...well it was sad. They laughed and said they were honored to get the very first autograph. They were being kind. Leann mentioned that the brown women's shirt is being discontinued and Jon says he has a new design he's working on so be prepared for a new disapproval shirt, and if you want to be someone who has one of the original Disapproving Rabbit shirts (you liked Disapproving Rabbits before they were popular), you might want to get one fairly soon.
And don't forget, if you would like to meet Cinnamon in person and learn more about living with a rabbit and meet some foster rabbits looking for a new home, we are having a Disapproving Rabbits Party at DreamHaven Books on November 2, 2007 at 6:30pm.
Okay, now to work on the next blog entry--brace yourself for a super cute junco photo as well as lots of brown birds!

Andrewbun & I are anxiously awaiting our copy here in Ohio :)
Andrew's Mum
It's a good booky kind of day today.
Cinnamon looks like she's really enjoying her job, as Goodwill Ambassador while offering up a supply of Promotional Fur. Just don't rub her the wrong way or there will be extra strength disapproval to deal with when the job is done.
She is a diva now after all.
.
Looking forward to receiving massive waves of disapproval with my copy!
And next, you could do a disapproving bird book, since I think you have loads of material there too.
Oh Cinnamon I just want to pet your perfect little furry forehead! :)
i'm laughing sooo hard! glad they like the gate! better stock up on aspirin for the writers cramp! can't wait to get it and have the dogs and rabbits here go nuts at the smell of OTHER critter they have never met! hmmm cinnamon dna ... would it be unwise to clone such a master of disapproval as her... imagine, a world of cinnamons...
Awww, I think a book "signed" by Cinnamon would be cute overload. There are non-toxic stamp pads that you can buy, the washable kids' kind (I think Crayola makes them). I used to let my mice run across them and then across whatever stationery I was using when writing letters to my little cousins. I bet those would be safe for rabbits.
What about beet juice?
Aren't you supposed to be avoiding the distractions of the net and writing a book?
Also, beets can cause gas and bloating.
Hey, Sharon...JZ used something on Chet's paws to do some personalizing on her books. But like you said, even if you find something non-toxic, Cinnamon will be toxic enough to blow a hole in the world.
Beet juice can be extremely hard to take off human hands so, whereas it is not toxic,I would not recommend it for Cinnamon. Unless she is looking for a new look (something like the hennea stained hands of women in India, when getting married).
