Zoo and I watched Taken, with Liam Neeson this weekend, and all I have to say is, dude, I’d like the man on my side. It was so awesome watching his one man army routine, his focus only on finding his daughter. I’d like to think that kind of pure adreneline is possible – in [...]
Happy Easter! I guess you’ve decided that my soul needs saving and are using your current policy to do so.
I’ve already taken time out of my busy schedule that includes actually writing more books that you can censor on your website by writing and calling about your disturbing new policy that bans adult materials from [...]
It’s more like deadline brain meets migraine brain, which is always an interesting combo.
But first, why is it that when Zoo and I watch American Idol and we think someone’s awful, the judges love them – and vice-versa?
Because we’re both tone-deaf? Could be it, sure.
Anyway, I’m under total deadline with Sydney book [...]

Book whore here – [...]
Visited my house last night. Painting appears to be under control, for the moment. The color we picked for the living room is very much a color, for lack of a better word (read: whole house is pretty much cool beige tones – living room is now a mustard color.) The [...]
Thanks everyone for the prayers & well-wishes – the three year old got a great report from her doctor and came through the procedure beautifully. We’re home, safe and sound and slightly exhausted, but happy. I’ll get to bloghopping later on so I can catch up with everyone, and then I need to [...]

I don’t like them. Clarification: I don’t like reviewing books myself. I can’t always explain rationally why I like one book and not another. It’s those cases that make me certainly understand and even sympathize with an editor or agent who sends a rejection that says simply, this is not for [...]
