Rock Your English! newsletter

Hello, darling! You ROCK! Thank you so much for taking me on vacation with you – I’m so looking forward to wherever we are going – where are we off to, darling? Are you taking me to the Alps? To St. Tropez? To San Francisco? Oh? To your mother-in-law’s garage? Oh, that’s just great! I’m going to tell all my friends…

WHAT’S UP IN BUFFILAND

I’ve been spending the last few days writing, rewriting, proofreading, editing, and laughing. My new book is funny. Just be warned that people might stare at you on the train when you burst out reading the “Don’t Go There” section, or my Dirty Bookmark. If you haven’t contributed yet, please do so – I’d love your support! 217 kisses to the 217 fabulous people who have already contributed! Thank you so much!

You can also get tickets to our superfabulous Book Launch Party in October at Knijn Bowling in Amsterdam! Eric Corton will be our host and you will be dazzled by some top artists who will perform in a special, intimate setting just for you! Grab your tickets, your books, your dirty bookmarks or your workshops hier! Thanks!

I LOVE THIS!

I feel really connected to all the people I meet on Facebook and Twitter. Thank you all for asking me questions, sending me bad translation photos, and superfunny links. I got this one the other day and I can’t stop watching it – it’s “The Dunglish Song”, written and performed by Siebe Palmen. Have you seen it? It’s brilliant! Check it out if you want a good laugh!

CALL ME, MARTY.

This week Mart Smeets welcomed the Chairman of the UCI on his TV show by saying “Hardly welcome!” OMG. Lots of people tweeted it to me, but I couldn’t find a link. Lo and behold, I found an oldie but a goodie (or a baddie, depending on how you look at it) where Smeets welcomed Jamie Cullum a few years ago, click here.

I’ve never met you.
And this is crazy.
You’ve got my number.
So, call me, Marty.

WHERE’S THE EXIT?!?

Patrick sent this to me (thanks for that!) – an email from Sony Music, announcing something exciting. Or so you would hope!

Can you find the mistake?

HATE TO LOVE YOU AND LEAVE YOU…

but I’ve still got a few finishing touches to make on my last few chapters. I hope you’re thinking of me editing away, as you drink pina coladas poolside with a bunch of Chippendales. Or cheerleaders. Or both. Sigh. Sending you all, my darlings, a sun-filled hug, a big pitcher of sangria (hey, fruit is important!), and 2 straws. One for you, and one for someone really, really special….in my head…

This is the first time an iced decaf soy latte made me laugh!
