About this author

I love salt more than chocolate. I'm somewhat small, yet deceptively strong. Sort of like an ant.

I write YA fiction, poetry and narrative medical nonfiction. I'm a part time doc, full time family member, and rather oxygen dependent.

My YA sci-fi novel, CONTROL, will debut December 2013 (Dial/Penguin). I'll be holding my breath until then. Watch me.





So I was all ready to post my first vlog today, and I totally panicked.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm really video-shy. I'm worried I'll be more "out there" than I already am, and it's so uncomfortable! I figured I would just get by, considering that my vlog would

2) was about making swag, hence focusing on an action rather than me.

But in the end, it was a vlog that... Read more of this blog post »

Jane Austen
“I have faults enough, but they are not, I hope, of understanding. My temper I dare not vouch for. It is, I believe, too little yielding— certainly too little for the convenience of the world. I cannot forget the follies and vices of other so soon as I ought, nor their offenses against myself. My feelings are not puffed about with every attempt to move them. My temper would perhaps be called resentful. My good opinion once lost, is lost forever.”
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

No worries! It's hard to find all my blog friends on GR and keep up. GR is a little dizzying!
