Gratuitous hot bloke news
(Pic from richardarmitageonline.com)
The BBC Spooks trailer featuring Rupert Penry Jones and Richard Armitage, is on You Tube.
This episode airs on BBC 1 at 9pm over October 27 and 28th.
What is interesting is that RA’s character, Lucas North, has some spectacular tattoos – as does Matt, the doctor hero of my next LBD. I know not everyone likes tatts on a guy – let’s face it I wouldn’t really want to see a unicorn rampaging over Mr Bennet’s torso – but Matt’s (like Lucas’s I suspect) aren’t the usual variety and he has them for a very special reason.
Writing news: There’s an excellent – and very funny – post here on Christina Jones’ blog about how royalties are paid. Or, rather – often aren’t! If you’ve ever wondered how authors are paid – or not – this will tell you all you need to know.
Update #2 : Julie’s talking about Revisions today – self-imposed ones. How lovely they are! 
I’ve added my bit FWIW.

DO you think my gawping at this YouTube should be classified as Research or Procrastination? [ I am a certified, official, YouTube addict as you well know]
Thank you so much for the link to Christina’s post -just what I needed.

PS. Tatoos can be amazingly attractive on the right man IMHO. For me they have to be young to middle aged to work, but wowee. And no hearts and mother please.
