Do you have a title for the new book yet?
Well, I'm in the happy position of having a new book that should be published in another two months. The title is Gypsy Rizka and I can pretty much guarantee that this book will make you laugh. The main character is a young half-gypsy girl named Rizka, as the title says. She is so bright and smart and sassy and clever that she outwits the solemn and overblown townsfolk who are trying to do her in. It's a very funny book because Rizka's schemes - and she's brilliant at them - are very comical. I should add that she always wins! And those idiot town dignitaries always lose, which is exactly the way it ought to be. I hope you'll want to read it, and I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun.

That exchange alone concerns Gypsy Rizka' directly. --P64 (talk) 18:01, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
