RWA to NYC to JKR
So I spent the latter half of last week in Atlanta, Georgia, attending the twenty-sixth Romance Writers of America conference. A lot of people, when I mention that I have been a member of this organization since 1998, ask, “Why? You're not a romance writer.” Au contraire, mon frere! I am and have always been […]

Spinning Beach Ball of Death
I always know summer is truly here when the Spinning Beach Ball of Death puts in an appearance. In case you don't know, the Spinning Beach Ball of Death is not a pool toy. It is an icon Mac users recognize as the universal symbol for Your Computer Now Hates You. For some reason, my […]

CARTOONS BY MEG
So before I became a published author, I was an aspiring freelance illustrator. And what I really, really, really wanted to do with my illustrations was have them be made into…greeting cards! Yes. It was my dream to work at Hallmark. Sadly, Hallmark never offered to buy my cards. In fact, no greeting card company […]

Don’t Even
I know you have come here looking for emotional and spiritual succor after the horrifying news. But, people, I don't know any more than you do. I've called my contacts in Hollywood, demanding to know what is going on with Kathy Griffin and her now ex-husband Matt. But all they will say is, “WHY ARE […]
So Many Crushes, So Little Time
Oh, great. So according to the Sunday New York Times, the children of Warren E. Buffett, the celebrated investor and my current crush, are already at work trying to figure out how to manage a gift from their father valued at about $1 billion each that will go to their own charitable foundations. OK, so […]

People have been emailing me with tons of questions about the new books (and demanding that I write Harry Potter's Honeymoon at Hotel Erotica Cabo). Here are some answers: Why are there two different covers for How To Be Popular? There aren't. There is one cover…and a silver foil slip cover. You'll see when the […]
