I’m not talking about the NYT or USA Today bestseller lists (though a huge congrats must go out to my my bestie, Lauren Dane, for hitting the USA Today list! WOOOO!) – I’m talking about a numerically ordered grouping of items with a shared theme of some sort. Oh, like…a “To Do List.” For example, [...]

I hate to exercise. I’m basically a couch slug. (You can ask my dad, he’ll agree.) It’s not that I don’t like doing “stuff” — I like walking TO places. I don’t like to hike, but if I have someplace to get to, sure, I’ll walk. I don’t like walking aimlessly, I guess. I have [...]

I actually had an entirely different topic to write about today, but got derailed after receiving a rejection from my agent. Via my agent, I should say, as it wasn’t my agent rejecting me but an editor who’d sent an email to my agent. The editor said the project was “incredibly compelling and creepy and [...]

Okay, so all of a sudden, print publishing is circling the drain, right? Ebooks are taking over, thus creating the demise of foine lit-ra-chur as we know it. Right? Ummm….wrong. Look. I’ve been digitally published since we called it e-publishing. Waaaaaay back when in oh…2001? 2002? Somewhere around there, and I wasn’t even in the [...]

I didn’t know you when you started. Oh, I saw the articles in Entertainment Weekly, heard the buzz. But you came on in a time when I didn’t watch television, had no Tivo to help me. I didn’t care much about you, in the beginning. And then…Netflix came into my life. That saucy whore. Teasing [...]

Well, I cleaned off my desk today, and let me tell you something. It always takes a really long time. I also did laundry, and that takes a long time, too! Which makes my eyes all squinty, the laundry and the cleaning. I also edited a Spice Brief called The Experiment and sent that off [...]

Some months ago, I went to a concert, where I bought the performer’s CD and had him sign it, yadda yadda. I do zat because I like to support people who are playing music and I like to have them signed because, well, why not, right? I have a nice little collection and it makes [...]

Yeah, so it’s snowing here. A lot. We have about four inches (so I’m told by the spawn with the ruler) and it’s still coming down. Hooray! I feel like watching Equilibrium or something equally delicious and playing the Sims 3 and generally being lazy. Yes, lazy. But I also feel like I should do [...]
