I was going to write a post about what I got up to on vacation, but it turned out, my intrepid girl explorer did it for me at ThisRecording – with added literary musings.
The Brit and I got sloshed on desert cocktails. We wore our prettiest girl outfits and flirted shamelessly with the bartenders. Fortified with cucumber and rum, we ran outside and jumped into the pool, wearing our clothes and shoes and ruining out hair.
Ah, Palm Springs…
In other news, thanks so much for all the feedback on ‘Boys, Bears & a Serious Pair of Hiking Boots’! I love that you love it, and for those who asked – it’ll be published in the UK in Feb, 2011 (super-cute cover reveal coming soon).
Big things and changes are afoot in my life right now, hence the blogging has been even thinner on the ground than usual. I made my TV debut last month as a guest on the BBC Review Show, chatting about chick-flicks and SATC:2 – scary but fun! (The filming, that is, not the film, which was sadly way more scary than fun). See me here, trying not to look directly at the cameras:
I ‘m also now gearing up for the publication of my next adult novel, The Liberation of Alice Love (hence another color scheme here on the site), and preparing to pack up and move at the end of summer, this time all the way to Los Angeles. But, I’ll do my best to check back in here, answer your emails, and bring you some behind-the-scenes book goodies and giveaways.
Have a great summer!
