Not a whole lot shaking on this blog, I know -- I'm busy working on all the upcoming No Tell Books titles: Harlot by Jill Alexander Essbaum, The Myth of the Simple Machines by Laurel Snyder, She Green Fields by Hugh Behm-Steinberg and the fashionably late The Bedside Guide to No Tell Motel -- Second Floor edited by Molly Arden and myself.

I'm hoping all the single-author collections will be out in October -- followed promptly by the Bedside Guide.

Today is Chris' 35th birthday, ew, I know, my husband is totally old! -- and at this moment Gideon is crashing hard from an ice cream-induced sugar high and adopting an anti-pajama stance. I'm gonna let the birthday boy handle the civil disobedience tonight.
