My favorite way to spend time is reading, writing, and traveling. But I'm also a big fan of: the beach, art, music, venti non-fat lattes, Golden Spoon frozen yoghurt, jeans, lip-gloss, gardening, pedicures, sunny days, flip flops, and Marrakesh.
Readers, writers, librarians, reviewers, booksellers, book lovers, Bono, Jon Stewart, Dwight (from The Office and only in character), and Ricky Gervais!! E-mail, comment, post on my bulletin board, whatever! You can learn more about my books, and read an excerpt by visiting www.alysonnoel.com
