I spent a couple weeks on her collection of journal entries, and offered my advice. I thought that was the end of it, but those stories really stuck with me, and after a bit of time, I talked it over with her, and we decided I should begin the hard work of fleshing out a novel tightly woven around the stories she'd shared.

Three Guesses What Made Book Club Pick (& Other Tidbits)...

I'm blushing. I'm nervous. I'm thrilled! You'd think I've just been asked to lead a discussion for Oprah or Reese's book club.

Well, pret-ty darn close in my opinion. The Rosé All Day Literary Society, my very own book club, has selected The Truth About Sunday Minor for April reading (May discussion)!

Again with the perfect timing, y’all. It so happens that April is also National Child Abuse Prevent

H.R.’s Quotes

“I think it’s glorious to be nervous. Being nervous is great! How often do we get nervous on a daily basis? Being slightly nervous means you care, and you’re alive, and you’re taking some kind of risk. Hooray for being nervous! A friend told me to substitute the word ‘excitement’ for ‘nervous’. That way you acknowledge the physical feelings without putting a negative spin on things. So to answer your question, sometimes I still get so excited about ‘Update’ that I want to throw up”
― Amy Poehler
