I’m far from a fiction veteran, but I have a couple of releases under my belt. It’s not that I don’t get excited about new books coming out or what have you, but I don’t have a lot of firsts anymore. Until now.
This first isn’t one that I expected to be crazy excited about. And I’m sure why it’s so thrilling, but I’m seriously about to piss myself.
The audiobook of Red-Headed Stepchild comes out tomorrow (Tuesday). Probably my excitement is a mixture of having Sabina and the gang kick ass in a whole new medium and the ability to hear them talk like real people. If you’re interested in a sample of what that will be like, click here for a brief clip.
But that’s not really the only exciting part. I’ve had a brainstorm so epic, so exciting that I should probably get a medal or a free dinner or something. Are you ready?
The Red-Headed Stepchild Audiobook Drinking Game!!!!!!!!!!!
Below, I have outlined the rules. There aren’t many so don’t worry. Also, it goes without saying that if you’re under 21, do not let yourself be influenced by the awesomeness of this idea. Also, don’t have your parents’ lawyer call me. Also, if you play this game do not drink and drive. Seriously. That totally sucks.
Here we go: The left column is the key word to listen for. The right column is the action you must take when said word is, well, said.
Fuck … 1 sip (look,it’s in there a lot so we don’t want alcohol poisoning)
Forked … 2 gulps (wait until you’re done laughing first)
Mancy … 5 sips (Adam’s worth the hangover you’ll have)
Moist … chug the whole damned thing (I’m so sorry)
Anyone else have any suggestions? Have fun and have your friends film you while you play.


….I think I need to organize a party for this. We never got to the bottle of rum at Armadillo*Con.
I had an idea for a drinking game where you watched Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, and you have to drink every time someone gets a hug.
I’M IN!!!
Brilliant!! I am definitely in!
Why does it not surprise me that you three were the first to volunteer? I love my lushy friends.
SO AWESOME!!!!
