  • It’s driving me crazy, and

    It’s driving me crazy, and I know you guys will know in three seconds. What movie: A guy answers the phone (maybe it’s a girl? but I seem to think it’s a guy) and someone’s on the other line angry, yelling about something that we all know he’s upset about. Or maybe it’s a she.…

  • This Is Not Over: The Mission Statement

    So, in case you missed it: Bush won. Now what do we do? Well, funneling a hive of killer bees up his pantleg is probably out, but I think you’ll agree that we have to do something. The 2004 elections saw an across-the-board loss of ground for liberals and progressives in the American government, and…

  • Liebe ohne Märchenprinz

    Liebe ohne Märchenprinz

    I love zee cover so much! Liebe ohne Märchenprinz (“Love, But No Prince Charming”, they say, is the rough translation) is out in June. I’ve had a great time emailing with the translator, explaining what exactly a “J. Crew-style director’s chair” would be. I’m sick as a dog today, and this was a wonderful surprise.…

  • RIP, ODB.

  • Lemme See That Escarow!: Luke

    Lemme See That Escarow!: Luke tries to plan a romantic dinner for Lorelai, but his sister and her incredibly annoying husband ruin everything. Dean tries to spend an evening with Rory, but her grandparents, and Rory’s new love of all things superficial, ruin everything. Dean dumps Rory in front of everyone, and Rory immediately celebrates,…

  • Woo hoo! The cover was

    Woo hoo! The cover was just sent to my house this past week. I really like it, and can’t wait for Amazon to post it. As the title suggests, this is an anthology of five short stories about women deciding whether or not they want to get married. I’m proud of stee for not worrying,…

  • How Not To Buy A Couch

    Last night’s pitch went well, and then I got lost leaving the lot. It gets dark at five now, a pitch black darkness that was even stranger yesterday due to the clouds overhead. I somehow turned the wrong direction and was driving through empty, dark sets. I’d be driving through some town square, then some…

    Are you doing NaNoWriMo? Talk about it here.

  • Big To-Do

    So the holes in my yard aren’t caused by skunks. We’ve been spraying for grubs, sprinkling hot pepper and keeping motion detector lights on, and while I haven’t seen any more skunks skulking around, the holes didn’t cease. Then last week, when I was planting some tulip bulbs in the name of M. Tiny, I…

  • Sarah Bunting is a Hero

    Her contest may be over, but you can still help the cause. I helped fund microscopes, because I’m a big ol’ geek.
