I am reading a novel called L.A. Mental by Neil McMahon. To make a long synopsis shorter, it is about a group of film makers in Hollywood experimenting with brain infusion of nanoparticles and mind control using quantum physics. Really, I thought it was going to be another murder mystery/thriller, but have I ever changed my mind. This is out of my comfort zone and area of knowledge. As we said in the 60's "Far Out."
Anyhow, I digress...I was reading until about midnight last night. Then I turned of my lights and listened to my Walkman MP3 player. I fell asleep listening and woke up about 2 AM and turned off the music and when I turned over to put the player and earbuds into the nightstand drawer, there was my novel GLOWING IN THE DARK. Well, that woke me completely up and I laid there humming the theme from "The Twilight Zone." I didn't know if I even wanted to go back to sleep. This morning I checked out the cover of the book. The jacket paper is obviously treated with the same type of stuff that makes glo-stiks glow.
I am finishing that novel today, in the daylight and returning it to the library before their close-of-business. This was just too weird!
Peace, (maybe later on)

Goodness...they should have a warning on the jacket...you could have had a heart attack....LOL
That was a little freaky, I guess.
Jimmie, seems I recall reading a recent article about book covers that glow in the dark after first being exposed to the light. But when it happens without you having known in advance was very weird.
