Allison Little is the main character in Death Revokes the Offer.  Allison is as real as anything virtual can be, follow her here and in the book when I come out.

I consider myself quite real, but for disclosure sake,
my views are not that of the author nor are they
representative of the author’s “real” business.  I’m
here because I’m funny and I’m always right, so you
can listen to me, you can be entertained, and you
won’t do much better.

What does a Blog do?  Besides assuage the latent
desires of the author to be published.  You don’t even
want to hear the saga of this author and her
publishing adventures. It’s a very, very long story.
Or, as her father use to say – don’t use very, if it’s
big enough, use damn. So her publishing saga is a damn
long story. There is your writing tip for the day.
And boring, the writing saga, or any saga towards fame
and fortune is boring, that’s because there are long
stretches of practice – if you’re an athlete,
education if you’re a surgeon and failed experiments
if you’re a researchers. But we, as a group, think
that everything happens over night, because when some
famous person is being interviewed for Vogue or
Newsweek or for the Nobel prize, the boring parts, the
years of working on a project, the years of working in
community theater or writing copy for a catalog or
making commercials are passed over in one sentence –
Like, he tried for a long time. He worked for a long
time.  A family friend directed Little Miss Sunshine,
a subject that his sister is heartily tired of hearing
about so she moved back to Paris.  Anyway Joan Dayton
commented that yes, he certainly is an over night
success, and to think, he’s only fifty years old.
See, it’s like that.  And on the way to overnight
fame, did he max out credit cards?  Oh probably. Did
he spend years on other projects, working up to this
one?  Oh yes, and did he spend years of hearing the
word no, sorry and maybe next time – guaranteed.  
So, Were you bored yet?  See, Stick with me, I don’t
have a boring back-story, that’s the advantage of a
fictional character. I’m all right here. No hang ups,
no psychosis. Okay, when you meet my mother, I’ll
probably have to back up on the psychosis thing.
So I’m a Realtor, I work for New Century Real Estate.
No, do not look it up. You can look up Century 21 and
get the same idea.

What do you want to know about real estate? Nothing,
you know everything don’t you?  You’re on the web
after all, you visited Zillow.com and now you have the
price of everything and the value of nothing.  You
have great inner confidence about your own skills, and
they are vast and deep. You know that that really, you
can certainly buy a house yourself; any moron can do
the work (think about that, good.) And market your own
house? How hard can it be? Sure, just because you had
a successful lemonade stand in the third grade and you
sold the most girl scout cookies in the sixth grade,
and in college you successfully traded favors for,
well never mind.  All these cumulative experiences add
up to one dynamite marketer. Yep, all you need is a
sign and you’ll “save” thousands of dollars.
Sure you will. Keep thinking that, And let me know how
it goes, I’m on your side, really, because if you know
that much and you are bound and determined to save
thousands of dollars because you are under the
impression that Real Estate agents just get too much
money and you want it in YOUR pocket, I don’t even
want to talk to you.  Put up your sign and watch those
savings roll in.

I could save thousands by coloring my own hair too.
For argument sake, let’s say selling a house is a bit
more complicated than begging your aunt to buy 100
boxes of thin mints.  Hang out here, or give the
author a call, because she has more real time than I
do.

As for the Blog. If you want to learn random pieces of

If you have any questions and you want a more than honest answer. By all means contact me, Allison at the authors address. Catharine@CatharineBramkamp.com make sure AllisonLittle@CatharineBramkamp.com and get a flat out true answer, one that is not about selling you anything, we know that won’t happen because you’ll talk to me for about three weeks then get distracted by something shiny and you’ll either forget you were suppose to buy a home, or you’ll buy a plasma TV instead (true story) or you’ll trip across another real estate agent who will claim to have great bargains and you’ll wander happily off with him or her. I know this, so come on and get an honest answer. Or not, I’m busy so it’s not like I’m waiting around the computer waiting for your question. Thanks for reading so far.
