In this hilarious piece, Cambria Clyne, the sassy heroine of \u003ci\u003eFor Rent\u003c\/i\u003e, is presented with 31 real-life excuses for not paying the rent. Everything from \"my identity was stolen\" to \"I needed drinking money for the weekend\" is offered as a so-called reasonable attempt to get out of forking over the cash (or unsigned money order or check that will surely bounce).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow the question is: How will Cambria get them all to pay up?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you'd like to try the ebook before you buy, it's free if you sign up for Erin's newsletter: http:\/\/bit.ly\/erinhussnews\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAuthor Interview\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat was your inspiration to write The Apartment Manager Series?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll the apartment managers I've met agree on one thing-someone needs to write a book about this bizarre industry! So I thought, why not me? As a former on-site apartment manager and longtime blogger at The Apartment Manager's Blog, I have a lot of inspiration right at my fingertips. So much so, this had to be a series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIt seems these books could fit into several genres. How would you categorize them?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo me, a good book has a bit of mystery, a dose of romance, a twist, and a whole lot of humor. So I applied this formula to For Rent: humor, mystery and romance... I think it could easily fit into chick lit, romantic comedy, and even a cozy mystery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat sets Cambria apart, and how is her story different from other romantic comedies?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCambria is a feisty single mom determined to do right by her daughter. She's smart, witty, awkward, humble and possibly too nosy for her own good. Even when she's thrust into strange and dangerous situations, she manages to hold her own. She's not easily defeated, even when everything (and everyone) says she should be. Cambria isn't out to find love (this isn't really a romance story, though the handyman is pretty cute), but she wouldn't be opposed to it finding her. She's really out to start a new job and establish a career for herself in an industry that is deceptively difficult. She fumbles along the way, and this is what makes her relatable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIn what order should I read the books?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy books are like Diet Coke and French fries-good on their own, but oh-so-good together.
