A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, Kelli Owen and I wrote an epistolary story about two teens–best friends with complications–at the end of the world. A teen-angsty-apocalyptic-sci-fi…sort of. But I will tell you this — it makes a REALLY FUN podcast. Thank you Cast of Wonders! The story is narrated by Graeme Dunlop and Michelle…
The Cat in this scenario is Cat Rambo, my Technicolor-haired friend, fellow writer, and mistress of the internet. She has just released a book called CREATING AN ONLINE PRESENCE.

Today over at the Waterworld Mermaids, I talk about writers who do more creative things than just write…like me…and how those writers CONFUSE THE HECK OUT OF PEOPLE. I credit most of this to Neil Gaiman and his Sandman comics, circa 1993. Hop on over and check out my True Confessions!
So I’m home. For now. I have to say, I’m a bit loath to leave again. Not that I don’t like traveling — I do! — and not that I don’t like meeting people — I have made some of the best friends EVER this year on all my various jaunts. I’m about to head back to NYC, and…
Hello, world! I’m back in town (for a little bit) and feeling better (finally!), so now I’m catching up on all the fun news. SO MANY AMAZING THINGS HAVE HAPPENED THIS MONTH!
