Taxonomy of an Idea: BABY TEETH

I was recently asked to write an article for Amazon, and I went from having no clue what to say to relishing the opportunity to really dissect how BABY TEETH settled in my brain as a story-worthy concept.

I got so into this "taxonomy" - of pinpointing the elements that ultimately influenced my book - that I may very well write similar articles in the future for whatever else I may write.

Where does an idea come from is a very complicated question, but this Amazon article let me dig deep into how BABY TEETH came to be. Read it here.

WESA Radio Interview

I did my first radio interview this week. I'm not gonna lie - I really wasn't feeling that well and I was afraid I'd done a crappy job. But this, my friends, is why I've agreed to do taped radio/TV and not live, because then they can edit together the best parts. ;-) 

When I read - and listened to - the final product I was pleasantly surprised: it was all just completely fine. Another truth: I tend to be pretty hard on myself, but... So much of this is new, and I don't have other experiences to gauge things against.

So without further ado, this link will take you to WESA, where you can read the article or listen to me talk about BABY TEETH.
