Seems like I’m always apologizing for going too long between posts, doesn’t it? You’d think I’d learn my lesson. My excuse is that I’ve been writing lots… and experimenting with veggie burgers, and learning how to quilt. I’ve got some good news for bibliophiles: Wake is now available on all ebook retailers for just 99 cents. I’m [...]
Mars Bar Cookies! (and books)
Posted on December 1, 2012 · Leave a Comment
Yesterday I spent my afternoon making Mars bar cookies. My grandma used to make these for all the grandkids, and we’d go nuts for them. Last year I made a batch with my sister, and I really can’t explain why i haven’t done it again since –it’s such an easy recipe, and so delicious. I [...]
Wake is now available in paperback
Posted on November 28, 2012 · Leave a Comment
The new proof copy of Wake is here! It’s a little thinner than its previous edition (yay for reduced neck and shoulder strain!).

I know you all clicked on the link because of the cookie dough thing, so let’s start with that. Earlier this week I made eggless cookie dough for a dessert snack. You can bake it, but the point of making it eggless is to eat it raw and pretend to be a kid again. I found [...]

Good news: Wake is now available in the Kobo store. If you’ve been waiting to get a copy for your epub-compatible device, now you can. I’ll make another announcement when the book is listed with Barnes & Noble and the Sony Reader Store (should happen before the end of June). As always, the book is [...]
