I have had several people tell me that my main character in FADING is overwhelmingly negative and therefor hard to root for. Wow. This floored me when I realized I&#8217;d heard it several times. I&#8217;ve read books with MCs with bad attitudes and I rarely finished them.  I do not like to read about unlikeable [...]]]></description>

Weezer played last night, along with Blink 182 and Taking Back Sunday (the Bleezer Tour).  Darling Daughter, whose 18th bday is just around the riverbend, went with friends as her birthday celebration.  Here&#8217;s what Weezer had to say about the concert:
&#8230;After a crazy blast of thunderstorms in San Francisco last night, the dawn [...]]]></description>

A confluence of events has me mulling over thoughts of school - mine, my children&#8217;s.  In June my oldest graduated from high school.  In August I had my twenty year reunion (that&#8217;s my web designer and high school friend in the picture). I recently took my eleven-year-old back-to-school shopping.  A few days ago Darling Daughter started college.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I thought you might be interested in the books I&#8217;ve read over the past year.  Some of the books have links to purchase.  The formatting is a bit wonky in places, I&#8217;ll try to straighten it out soon.
The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale was one of those wonderful fairytale stories.  Something about other [...]]]></description>

I’ve noticed a change in social mores with the advent of technology, specifically, with relationships in the age of texting.  Cell phones have changed our lives and the way we communicate – texting even more so.
Caveat:  I do not text.  I am a technological dinosaur, to be sure, but I’ve just never [...]]]></description>

There was an article in Nylon magazine recently about nerd sex appeal.  I got to thinking about testosterone-challenged guys I know of (celebrities, book characters&#8230;um, unfortunately, none in real life come to mind).
I&#8217;ve been a fan of Weezer since the early nineties.  Rivers Cuomo may just be the archetype nerdy lead singer.  After all, in one of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been thinking about teen/parent relationships lately.  Very rarely in YA books are there functional parents around all the time.  That would hamper the growth of the protagonist and the story as a whole if he/she had a perfect parent that could swoop in and fix everything.  There may be books out [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been thinking about hair lately.  Mostly because of this butch-job I got a couple of days ago.  Considerably shorter than I was going for (to put it mildly), but I didn&#8217;t get too worked up this time because my hair grows super fast.  Also, if I wanted to pull it off, I told myself [...]]]></description>
