So Eddie and I had grand plans this weekend. Saturday: Quantum of Solace (a.k.a.: 30 Days Around the World with His Majesty’s Hotness Daniel Craig). Sunday: brunch at Sherlock’s, starring the long-anticipated Bananas Foster French Toast. Bananas Foster reminds me of the Ordoyne’s kitchen in Atlanta, and my pyromaniac father eager as ever to light something on fire. French…
It’s official — Sherlock’s Books is my new favorite bookstore. It helps that it’s only about 20 miles from my house, a lovely, backwoods, straight-shot, non-interstate drive. And doing it mid-November when all the leaves are changing — well, whichever ones didn’t just turn brown and fall already due to yet another heat-lamp summer — it was a pretty…
The November issue of Apex Magazine is live, including the latest Beauty & Dynamite entry entitled: "I Bet You Think This Essay’s About You." A great artist is an artist who has their own distinct voice. Their “certain something” stands out from the crowd. Certain aficionados can glance at a painting and tell a Renoir from a Picasso or…
She shelved books like an accusation… Yesterday I came back from lunch (one should always go out to lunch on Halloween, especially if one is dressed as a princess) to a lovely acceptance letter (few acceptance letters are not lovely) from Amber at The Writer’s Eye. This pro-rate online magazine is celebrating its first year of publication. As a…
My essay "White Girl" is now up at Clarkesworld. Be sure to also check out the fabulous fiction in this issue, including Cat Rambo’s "Worm Within." Dragon*Con post coming soon. Promise.
I had a migraine on Friday. Bad. In hindsight, I suppose I should have expected one — it had been slowly barreling its way northwest for a while now, and its name was Fay. Stress, sleep, hormones, and barometric pressure are all the unavoidable migraine factors. I had four aces. The universe had a straight flush. I also…
Yes, folks, here it is — the official Beauty & Dynamite Book Trailer. It’s not much, but it’s mine, and I love it. Kudos to Stephanie Rinehart for piecing this together before and after her finals this year, and to my beautiful friend Fontaine, whose voice still gives me goosebumps after all these years.
The origin of “Blood and Water”Art by Nicole Cardiff*******************************************************“You’re a writer? Okay, tell me a story.” Yeah — my eyes just rolled too. I’ve gotten this my whole life. I’ve heard it from friends and teachers. I got it from relatives who expected me to entertain their bored children. I even got it once from a computer tech support…

Yay! My first-ever sale to Shimmer! I am very honored. “The Giantand The Unicorn” will appear in the infamous Clockwork Jungle issue. It’s a clockwork retelling of Aesop’s “The Lion and the Mouse.” I am totally bringing unicorns back. Watch me. 🙂
