Thank you to the Kingston, NY, Barnes & Noble for hosting my Dani Noir reading yesterday—even with the weather!

I’ll be on the local Kingston, New York, radio station WKNY this Friday, February 26, at 8:45 a.m. talking about DANI NOIR and whatever else may come up—and you can listen live online on the radio station’s website; just click “Listen Live.”

For tweens and readers and friends living in the Hudson Valley: I’ll be reading from Dani Noir at the Barnes & Noble in Kingston, NY, on Saturday, February 27, at 2pm. There will also be a Q&A after. Hope you can make it!

There are two new interviews up of me—find out more in this post on the DANI NOIR book website. I’m especially excited to be a part of the Winter Blog Blast Tour 2009… be sure to check out the full schedule (and look at all the great writers involved!).

Even though I will miss the city, I’m so looking forward to spending four weeks this spring on those beautiful grounds. Best of all, I will get so much writing […]

Publishers Weekly called DANI NOIR a “watertight debut.” Wow! Do you want my signature scribbled inside your very own copy? If you’ll be in New York City on Sunday, October 11, you can have just that, and more, because other authors will be there too. Here’s the info: Books of Wonder 18 West 18th Street […]

Five and only five questions are asked of me over on Culturebot, and I give answers. The questions are: 1. Where did you grow up and how did you end up where you are now? 2. Which performance, song, play, movie, painting or other work of art had the biggest influence on you and why? […]

Thanks to 36invisible, we just got a redesign! The photos in the mosiac are from shots I took while wandering around downtown Manhattan, through Philadelphia, and during a short trip back to the campus of Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio. The site looks different every time you reload or visit a new page. Check […]
