The time Stanford graciously allowed me to pause medical clerkships to write and promote Spellbound has gone with the last of the summer. It was wonderful. Book tour was much busier and more fun this year. The time to research, write, and think was a rare luxury. But now, summer's over. School's back in. I start my Internal Medicine rotation tomorrow. I am both a little sad to take the writerly corduroy jacket off and excited to put on the medical white coat back on.

Those of you who have been following for a while know the drill: I won't have much non-hospital time and almost certainly no time to blog. So if you're curious what's happening in my life–both in terms of medicine and writing–click through to my  Facebook page, which I'll try to keep current. Feel free to friend me once over there!
