Dispatches from the City of Angels
I'm a writer and humorist living in and writing about Los Angeles. You can catch my novel LOSING CLEMENTINE out March 6 from William Morrow. In the meantime, feel free to poke around. Over at my website you can find even more blog entries than I could fit here, as well as a few other ramblings. Enjoy and come back often.

A little help over here!
Sometimes, I just put a pair of earrings in and leave them. For a while. Particularly lately. I've been busy.
My book is making the rounds with agents. I'm banging out the second one, putting together an anthology for Sisters in Crime, organizing promotional events for a dozen other authors, trying to get the ball rolling on two up-coming conferences. I'm running a 50K foot race next week and helping to train two friends for their own races. My husband and I are going to Europe in a couple of months. I haven't booked a single hotel room. And damn it all to hell, I don't know what to get my mother-in-law for her birthday. So I can't POSSIBLY be expected to deal with accessories.
So would it be too much to ask for someone, ANYONE, to point out that I've been wearing two different earrings for the past TWO WEEKS? Jesus Christ.
I can't do everything, people!
