Scratch that, y'all, I'll just be at RT.

About Me

I eat way too much candy, resulting in low level hyperness (and moderate level fatness) all the time. I am a slave to the karaoke machine. I guess you'd have to meet me in person to understand how incredibly super I am.

Musical Theatre, New Age Spirituality, Broadway, Opera, Classical Music, Pop Music, Rock, Led Zeppelin, Vampires, Tolkien, Past Lives, Wierd Michigan Trivia, The Six Wives Of Henry VIII, The Reign Of Terror, Disney Princesses, Final Fantasy Unlimited, Gerard Butler Movies, Marie Antoinette, Other Miscellaneous Good Looking People, Vanity, Detroit Tigers Baseball and Booze.

I'd like to meet:

REM. The old line up, with Bill in it.

Music:

Top fizzive right now, y'all: Blackout by Britney Spears, Little Voice by Sarah Barielles or however you spell it, Who's Next, by The Who, 30 Seconds to Mars, whatever their album is called, and The New Broadway Cast Recording of 1776.

Dirty Jobs. Mike, you're a fox.

Buckley Jr. What I just got done reading: Abundance Sena Jeter NaslundWhat I will be reading next: Your mom's tramp stamp. Also, probably Fool Moon, Jim ButcherNote to possible passersby: I love genre fiction. That does not make me stupid or lazy. If one more person makes a comment about my books or any other genre fiction being somehow less important or less intelligent than "literary" fiction, or the readers of such being unintelligent or lazy, I will totally punch that person in the spleen.

Heroes:

Anyone who lives their life the way they want to, regardless of what people might think of them. Also, Batman.

My Blog

Kudos on your new skin coat, my friend.

I have an issue with these "kudos" things when you make a comment on a blog.  What do they mean?  What do they have to do with anything?  If I don't leave kudos, will people be offended...

This is ricockulous

Why does it get to be so hot?  Who said that was okay?  Who makes these decisions?  I will punch them in the face.

Oh, the RWA drama

My first-- and only-- RWA Nationals conference was the one I attended in 1994, at the tender age of thirteen years old.  I went with my grandmother, Peggy Hanchar, who thought it would be a great...

What what

Until this morning, I had no idea how much of Dahlia's character I had unintentionally based off of Madonna in the Like A Prayer video.

It can't be just me.

Does anyone else fantasize about doing terrible things to those girls on the E! show about spray on tanning?

What horror is and and what it isn't.

With book two just a few short weeks away from hitting the shelves (and the ARCs sitting in a box just feet from me... jealous?) I've been thinking about what is and isn't scary.  I'm aware that ...
