This is supposed to be a “work” week. I am actually at the beach for week number two, the first being “vacation” — in which I actually wrote! But what can I say, strike when the iron’s hot or whatever. I was inspired. But now, here I am, and I’m supposed to be working because [...]

So, my friend Jen recently introduced me to this song: Amazon.com Widgets buy from itunes here: iTunes tells me I’ve listened to it 110 times (not counting when I listened in my car or the 10 times I listened on my iPod this morning while I took notes for Collide.) This song is everything that [...]
So…I finished NAKED and SELFISH IS THE HEART and NEWLY FALLEN and will submit NF later today after I read over it once more. Last night in the wee hours I finished reading over an old book in preparation for spending the rest of the summer revising it. I love this book. I love this [...]
It’s gonna be hardcore, people. HARD. CORE. Here’s the thing: I like to eat. I don’t like to exercise. And I worked damn hard a few years ago to lose what I’d gained while pregnant (which was A LOT) and I managed to do it and keep it off for awhile. I hovered at a [...]
So I figured out that if I write at a moderate pace (read SLOW) I can be finished with the first draft of this next book by the time my kids get out of school. This pleases me, as I feel I’ve lost quite a bit of writing time. But my goal was to be [...]

A combination of Dr. Sean McNamara and Graham (James Spader’s character) from Sex, Lies and Videotape. “Tell me what you don’t like about yourself” becomes “tell me what you like.” I’m not sure I really need to know about the personal sex lives of other people, though I do think I meet a surprisingly large [...]
edit: I wrote this yesterday but I’m only uploading it today… Sittin’ here, at this lonely blog… So, last night I drove down to Glenside to check out Joshua Radin at the Keswick Theater. Bit of a difference from the last time I saw him play in a small, 100-seat theater. This place held, oh…900 [...]
So, last night I couldn’t sleep again.I went to bed a little later than I’d wanted to, but had to catch up on some things before I could…when I got into bed the aircraft were landing and taking off along with the freight trains (i.e. Superman was snoring) so I put in my earplugs and [...]
I’ve never seen American Pie before. Why didn’t boys look like Chris Klein when I was in high school?? Hell, why don’t they now??
