I've been given until Friday to write both the bio for "Anna Leonard" and the "Dear Reader" letter that goes in front (I have no choice, they are Required).

Because Madame Editrix, bless her, understands, I have been given permission to do these things either 'straight' or, erm, 'bent.' In the humor, not sexual, use of the terms (and yes, I know humor and sex are often one and the same, but not so much in this genre, so hush and stop dragging me into these parenthetical asides).

So, I'm throwing it open to the unwashed e-masses.

I went with tongue-in-cheek for the first because, well, hello, me, and I think a dialogue between LAG and AL would be fun for sheer messing-with-the-head value (though whether it's the reader's head or yours, I'm not sure.....).

Actually, the office does have a window, which actually does face your office, but I'm in the bedroom, the window of which does not face your office.

I think a toungue-in-cheek dialogue in the form of an interview between LAG in Editrix Mode and AL as 'new writer' would be funny.

...and a haiku :D

I went with tongue-in-cheek for the first one, because I think it would be fun.

As for the second, I couldn't decide between the dialogue and the sum-up of why you like writing paranormal romances, so I picked both. However, if the "dialogue" in question is a difference of opinions, that would definitely win over why you like writing this kind of story. Or, you could combine the two, and LAG and AL could disagree on the reasons why they enjoy writing paranormal romances. :D

All of the above comments sound good!

I confess, I'm a sucker for haiku.
