…but first I have to put in a shift at the bookstore. That’s right, kiddies — this afternoon, I am headed back to Tennessee, for far less time than I’d like to stay, of course. One day I’ll kick the renter out of my house and use it as a summer spring winter home, but for now I must…
Episode 16: “The Straw, the Coal, and the Bean” (3:07) This little tale reminds us that busting a gut while laughing is a time-honored tradition. It also tells us why all beans have black seams. I must say, though…I have never felt bad for a bean in my entire life. That must have been one very unique tailor. …
Please feel free to leave a comment wishing my mom a very happy mummbledymumble birthday!
Today’s my day to blog over at the Waterworld Mermaids. I encourage you to pop on over and discover why I interrupted the Fairy Godboyfriend in the middle of his breakfast and asked if he could grab me a beer..and what the heck that has to do with writing. Heehee! The things we do for art. Man, his face…
Just because it’s not May anymore doesn’t mean I won’t be hosting interviews on my blog anymore. They just don’t always have to be about writers…like this one! I talk about my sister Soteria and her spectacular jewelry all the time–heck, I’ve handed out her business cards to people who have complimented me on the New York subway–but how…
I have a lot of hours at the bookstore this weekend, so I crashed last night shortly after this Wall Street Journal article came up in conversation on Twitter and Maureen Johnson started the #YAsaves hashtag.

My Civil War ghosty-story “Blue and Gray & Black and Green” is now up for your listening enjoyment at Cast Macabre. I’m so glad this story was picked up for podcasting, as it works best as a told story. Barry J. Northern’s voice also adds that gorgeous level of mystique. Do you know anything about the General Jenkins house…
June 1st was my day to post over on the Waterworld Mermaids website — in which I shared my thoughts about May’s Month of Writers Blog Festival (I know you didn’t miss it). Feel free to pop on over, read & comment with your favorite stupid question! I’d love it if you did. The Month of Writers interviews were…
Today wraps up our final interview of May’s Month of Writers Blog Festival Or Whatever We’re Calling It. It’s been an exceptionally fun ride. I’ll write up all my thoughts about it tomorrow — in the meantime, feel free to wander back through the interview archives and learn more about these friends of mine whom I admire so much….
I had never met Amal El-Mohtar before last weekend. She and Aliette de Boddard kindly offered to let me crash in their room Thursday night (as I had a workshop first thing Friday morning), so I offered to pick them up at the airport. As no geek worth her salt would pick up someone at the airport blind, I…
