Questions
I asked myself a question today on Goodreads and then I answered it. I also discovered that a reader had asked me a question, except that it wasn't a question. It was praise. I love that. I answered her question, even though technically it wasn't a question.
It made me think how cool that you can come to an author's page here and ask them a question and get an answer. So, ask me something? Or I ca Read more of this blog post »

"0 stars. Horrendous. Summary of the book sounds scandalous and fun. Very little scandal, very little fun. All the J names are so annoying and Lucy the daughter is annoying and not written well for her age. This could be the worst book I’ve ever read."

“I was brand-new in San Francisco, right out of college, and I thought it was thrilling, a guy buying me a drink. I didn’t think, how tacky, this creep is buying me a drink. I thought, how amazing, I put on lipstick and a short skirt and look what can happen.”
