The Myth…and the Truth…you tell me…

Each chapter of book three will be starting with a Myth/Truth just like in the first two books. Do you have any suggestions of possible Myths and/or Myth/Truth combos? I’m trying not to use any of the same Myths that I used in the first two books (though if it has a different/amended Truth attached to it, I might use it). Here’s chapter one, which I’ll probably be leaving as-is from the sample chapter:

Myth: Vampires keep to themselves.
Truth: Hey, we’re as friendly as the next fanged bloodsucker.

Anyone who suggests one that gets used will get their name in the book at the back in an Acknowledgements section. Come up with some good ones! Can’t wait to see what you think of!

And There’s More!

Go here for a complete list of previous posts about Book Three, including the how and why, the schedule, and the questions I’ve posted so far. And please feel free to go back and comment on any past posts if you’ve missed a question!

P.S. Have you checked out my latest book yet? If you liked Sucks to Be Me, you’ll love Cat Girl’s Day Off!
