The future is here. Do novels still matter?

This is an advice letter sent to those — like me — who participate in this year’s National Novel Writing month. No, I haven’t gotten anywhere near my goal yet. It’s the holidays! I’m traveling!

Why are people fascinated with crime books and crime shows?

Miss Lise, Yesterday, between bouts of my annual laundry sorting fest (path to back door excavated!), I stumbled across a facebook post by a friend which turned deeply personal and really got me thinking. In it, a few people shared personal tragedies that had befallen them — and they were, indeed, h

Tree trimming ho!

Katy — It’s *that* time of year, the time of frenzy, chaos, cold, and debt. Stress, stress, and more stress! But it’s also time for that old ritual: trimming the Christmas tree.
