  1. Time for a lengthy dream sequence. . . http://twib.es/t-6GOVW
  2. Dad’s hair was already darkening because of EMO. He dyed it black for the wedding. His fringe is nearly chin-length. Still not EMO.
  3. Mum spent an hour crying due to Mum3 fitting her wedding dress better. I definitely saw sparkles. Then she went for a walk and got better.
  4. Ed’s coming to the wedding, because “it’ll be SUPER deep.” Tissue prices are rising. Still not EMO, despite getting shafted as bridesmaid.
  5. “Bell,” said Mum, “don’t be upset, but I’m going to be my own bridal party. Won’t it be fun?” “Are ANY of you EMO yet?” “Just your fathers.”
  6. Mum2 refused to get bitten. “Clones are people too. We have rights.” “We?” said Pi. That’s when Mum2 introduced Mum3, Mum4 and Mum5.
  7. Still not EMO, despite suddenly copping twice as much wedding talk. I wish we could cure EMOs without actually talking to people.
  8. I got Mum to agree that she wished there were two of her doing all that wedding prep. She sat in Pi’s cloning machine and BOOM! Two Mums.
  9. I helped Pi get his cloning machine out of the shed. “And you DIDN’T win the science prize for this?” He shrugged and said, “Nah. Volcanos.”
  10. Still not EMO, despite finding out Dad gives Mum hickies “every day or two”. I certainly FEEL sick. But will their grossness save the world?
  11. “I have to what now?” I asked Pi. He said, “Just ask Dad how often he bites Mum.” “But --” “We need to know. And I’m WAY too young to ask.”
  12. “Bell! Bell!” said Pi. I said, “What?” “You were right! Mum has a natural immunity.” “Fantastic.” “I know. We have to clone her!” “Pardon?”
  13. Mum picked fresh tomatoes for our dinner, and once again I could have sworn she was sparkling. But when I blinked, she wasn’t. Weird.
  14. Author moment: I'll be interviewed live tomorrow at 8:30am on Artsound FM Canberra (92.7 or 90.3 in Tuggeraong)
  15. “Two weeks to the wedding!” Mum yelled, waking me. At least I could be certain she wasn’t EMO. Dad drew sad smileys on the invitations.
  16. “Pi, I swear she was sparkling one moment and not sparkling the next.” “Impossible,” he said. I said, “You’re right. It must be the stress.”
  17. Mum hung out washing and my heart stopped. She was sparkling. “Mum! You’re EMO!” I cried. She said, “Nonsense. Look again.” She was fine.
  18. author moment: oops. That tweet was meant to just go to other people writing a novel this month. Oh well. . .
  19. Want a glass of water? Write 100 words first. Want to go to the bathroom? 200 words. Want coffee? Just get some ;) http://twib.es/t-604J3
  20. Ed said if I loved him I’d let him bite me. He was too weak to try, but I kicked him in the groin anyway. Suddenly my week got better.
