<-------------- So I've added my Twitter updates to the sidebar. I've been reluctant to use Twitter for whatever reason (read: like I need another internet addiction!), but I plan to give it a shot while we're in California this week and see how I do. For those who don't know what Twitter is, it's like a mini-blog I can write from my cell phone, in which I can use only 140 characters per post. Should be fun.

- 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 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.
- I'm currently looking for an agent. Preferably someone with a bent sense of humor and a Twitter account. Bonus if she laughs when I ask her if that's a Kindle in her pocket or if she's just happy to see me.
