Pay it forward.
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!

The dry ice in the punch is awesome. Some of your decorations are too scary for me, like that ghost hanging out in your yard. I just know I'd go get a glass of water at 3 a.m., see him out there and scare the pants off myself. But then, I'm sort of a wuss about this holiday.
