Who I Am
I read, I write, I occasionally look to make sure my kids aren't playing with matches.
My novel, Continuity, is repped by Laney Katz Becker of Markson Thoma.

Do You See What I See?
Thursday, December 31, 2009
We were told to try the cafe con leches at the market next to Subway. Adam points across the street, away from the Subway. “Here?” I tell him, “Next to the Subway.” Adam looks at me as if I’m crazy. “I don’t see a market!” And he’s already had three coffees today. Can you say, [...]
Third Thoughts

I’m actually starting to feel a bit hostile toward that burger with fried egg and duck fat fries. Good thing I’m headed toward a midnight show. A beer might make everything all better.

Monday, December 28, 2009
I like to think of myself as a hardcore runner, but it turns out I’m pretty half-assed about it, because when it comes right down to it, I’m going to pick that second martini over a longer run the next morning. I call it “The Miami Effect.” Other manifestations of the Miami Effect? The ability [...]
The Land That Christmas Forgot
Friday, December 25, 2009
We survived the trip down. Somehow. It started with Adam insisting we needed to leave at 8 for our 11:10 flight, which seemed ridiculously early to me, but I figured he knew what he was talking about. So I woke up before 6 a.m. to finish packing and get the house cleaned, and sure enough [...]
