Writing lessons and the writing life
Note to self: stop getting nervous when you read. Otherwise, it was fun. We had a good eclectic mix of folks in the top floor room, and it was a rollicking good time. After I read, I talked about the long strange trip to publication, and people asked lots of great questions. I didn’t keep track [...]
Okay, so we all know the drill:
The next book signing is this Wednesday at BookPeople, 7 pm. Food, fun, a little reading, a little signing — and a little horse play.

My lemon meringue pie came in second at today’s bakeoff at work. Kenny took first place with an apple pie, and Amy took third with her ancho chile fudge pie.
