M.A. Church - Texting, AutoCorrect, and a Prius Cover

Texting, AutoCorrect, and a Prius

by

M.A. Church

Clay McDonald finds the perfect car on Craigslist and is quick to send the seller a text:

Is your penis still for sale?

AutoCorrect strikes again. Damn—he should’ve proofread. How embarrassing.

Luckily Darrell Anderson, a mechanic and the owner of the Prius, is more amused than offended, and the two men agree to meet. When they do, the attraction is instant, and a date is arranged. But a series of mishaps, misunderstandings, and misplaced assumptions sorely test the new relationship.

In a contemporary romantic comedy about the perils of technology and dating in the modern world, a text that went so wrong might just lead to something so right—but only if Clay can refrain from jumping to conclusions and give love the benefit of the doubt.

Release date: 28th June 2017

M.A. Church!

Hey! I’m so excited to be back with MM Good Book Review for the cover reveal for Texting, Autocorrect, and a Prius. I don’t usually write many contemporaries, but every once in a while, something catches my eye and I just gotta write it.

About a year ago I ran across a meme on FB. It was one of those from Damn You, Autocorrect. It was basically about a guy selling a Prius on craigslist. Someone sent a text to the seller but didn’t bother to proof what he wrote. Yeah, big mistake. Instead of asking if the Prius was for sale, he asked if the penis was for sale.

And I was off and running with an idea, lol.

The idea literally hit me out of nowhere—maybe it should be Damn You, Plot Bunny—and in a couple of hours I had the book plotted out. I had a lot of fun writing it, even though nothing grew a tail and started meowing! It just goes to show, one never knows where inspiration can strike… and flatten us.

For one lucky commenter below, I’m giving away one eBook of choice from my backlist.

M.A. Church - Texting, AutoCorrect, and a Prius Square

Excerpt!

Once the movie ended, Darrell started picking up around the house. Seeing his phone, he decided to check it. Sure enough, there were several calls inquiring about the Prius. He either left a text or a voice message telling people what time they could come by to check out the car starting Monday.

Just as he was finishing up, he got another text message. Hey! This is Clay. I saw your penis for sale on Craigslist. Is it still available? If so, I would like to take it for a test drive sometimes tonight.

Darrell started laughing. Oh, that was hysterical. As much as he hated to admit it, that was the best offer he’d had in a long time. He fired back a message. Hi Clay, I’m selling a Prius. Is that what you meant? He couldn’t wait to see what the response was. Was it bad that he actually hoped whoever that was meant what the text said?

Another text came in: Yes!! Apologies new phone.

Darrell bit his lip. Somewhere out there was a guy dying of embarrassment. He answered: Well it’s Craigslist. You never know.

  1. Unfortunately, autocorrect has played some of his dirty tricks in my messages, so I know how embarrasing it can be… And also how fun afterwards!
    Congratulations on the release, M.A. It sounds really good 😉

  2. LOL – autocorrect can wreak some havoc. I used to own a Prius, but didn’t get any penis texts when I sold it. Darn!

  4. thanks for the chance and congrats

  5. Love the premise of this book. My brother is terrible at texting he never proofreads his texts before sending so he never catches any autocorrect errors. I’ve had some hilarious texts from his as a result and some that make no sense what so ever lol.
    Congrats on the new book!
