GRAVY

My first novel started with a mole. Yes, a MOLE - a freckle, a birthmark, whatever you want to call it.
I was at the pool with my daughter getting ignored by our swim instructor when a lifeguard with a particularly ripped abdomen walked by. He stopped to flirt with one of the female lifeguards and my eyes flew directly to an adorable mole on the top can of his six-pack.
"How cute!" I thought (among other things). "He looks like a character in a romance novel!"
So I went home and started writing fiction for the first time. That was over a year ago and I still haven't been able to stop. GRAVY is the story of a suburban housewife who wants another baby, but gets a man with a mole instead.
GRAVY is now available on Kindle and Nook!

Mommy Boogers

I am breaking all my rules and letting Mr. Pants watch TV all day so I can work on my Blogher post. I swear it's like a competition - she who can do the conference justice WINS. I think the prize is that people stop calling you a Mommy Blogger. (I totally almost wrote Mommy Booger).

I also have some photolicious goodness to post, but I am a Flickr newb and it is slow going. But I'll leave you with this one, in which my vampiric hair attempts to suck the lifeblood from my favorite Canadian:

I was reading the live blog on Mommy blogging and someone asked a question or made a comment about their "totally sappy blog" and I thought it had to be you.
