Pretty New Cover

I love seeing the covers for foreign editions (except when they steal someone else’s cover, that’s way not cool.) This one is awful purty, though. It’s Stranger in French. M

Cheater

Collide pt. 2

Phew. Got my 20 pages done and guess what I LIKE THEM. WHEEEEEEE! Favorite line of the day: “If I were famous for dangling my dingle I might not want anyone to notice me, either.” Also, Beth Keryis giving away a copy of Deeper! Head on over to her blog to check that out. Thanks, [...]

Another conversation with my spawn.

daughter: “How do people with no legs go to the bathroom?” me: “You are aware that your legs have nothing to do with going to the bathroom, right?” daughter: “but if they don’t have any legs, they don’t have a place ‘between’ the legs, which is where you go to the bathroom from.” me: “believe [...]

I want it that way.

Blogging

It’s a strange, strange, thing, innit? I mean, any monkey with a computer can have a blog. And these days, I wouldn’t be surprised to discover that monkeys have computers. And blogs. I have a blog. I’m basically a monkey with a computer. I talk about what I want to write about and figure if [...]
