Fannish recursive: Orlando Jones’s tumblr just ‘liked’ my tumblr reposting of Orlando Jones’ tweet on Twitter. Another St. Patrick’s Day, another day I avoid Manhattan and any bar anywhere. Because having a drunk frat boy in a $500 suit puke green beer on me once was enough for a lifetime. The rental car was duly

Some days, Twitter, I just don’t know. Meanwhile, for those of you who were offline this weekend… Publishers Weekly reviewed FIXED – a few months late, but they said nice enough things (“well-crafted” and “(a) comfort-reading cozy.”) that we’ll forgive them. :-) And there may have been a drive-by snippeting for the WiP on Friday.

Publishers Weekly just reviewed FIXED! I’m afraid they’re not entirely sold on Penny and Georgie as investigative sidekicks, but call it “well-crafted” and “(a) comfort-reading cozy.” Yanno, we’ll take that. Because it’s true. :-)
