Having one of those mornings. One of those mornings when I think about that quote from writer Annie Dillard: “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.”
Read that again if you have to. I know I did the first time I saw it. Because it’s so [...]
. . . by Diana Peterfreund, author of Secret Society Girl (which her publisher recently expanded from a duo to a quattro–congratulations, Diana!). Anyway, back to me. I’m supposed to reveal five little-known facts about myself. Whoo, boy. I’m already guilty of revealing a little too much on this blog at [...]
Remember how I said at some book signings it’s so quiet out in the audience you’d swear you heard crickets?
Last night I attended Elizabeth Gilbert’s book signing for Eat, Pray, Love. No crickets. In fact, enough questions and accolades from the audience of about 60-75 people to keep her talking for over an [...]
How will I be spending my Valentine’s Day? I considered doing the same thing I do every year, going out to dinner with my Valentine at the restaurant up the street (thereby obeying our rule that we only go to restaurants within a three-mile radius) (because we are lazy) (and kind of unimaginative about [...]
Hey, it happens. Didn’t finish a book this week. Still savoring the one I began last week.

One of the quotes [...]
Today I return, temporarily, to one of my previous jobs: yoga teacher.
Because the timing was right. The owner of the yoga studio was heading to India for several weeks and needed all hands, past and current. And I had just turned in my new novel a few days before she asked me, [...]
Many thanks to fellow novelist/Lost addict Barry Lyga for performing the valuable human service of giving me this link.
Please read, then let’s discuss.
And just for the record, I have WAY more questions than that.

Just so you don’t think I sit around all day every day watching Oprah, let me remind you that I just finished my new novel a few weeks ago, and I am ON VACATION. I will continue to be on vacation for the next two weeks, at which time I will be going to [...]
I’ll do a real post later, but let’s all just pause for a moment and realize that
LOST FINALLY RETURNS TONIGHT!!
We’ll see what happens with Henry’s operation, whether Kate runs even though Sawyer has a gun to his head and Jack is stuck in blackmail surgery, and maybe we’ll check in on Sayid and see [...]
