I'm a writer and mom living in Oakland. This is my personal blog; I write about parenting, cooking, local issues, books, and anything else that's rattling around inside my head.
I am the author of The Millennial Sword, an urban fantasy novel set in San Francisco, and two read-aloud picture books for kids, The Big Booger Bubble and Gail Murphy and the Piskies.
My short fiction is included in the anthologies Fae, Love Hurts, and Speculative Story Bites:

I want very much to eat those little tootsies. They look very delicious!

Yay baby-foot spam!!
Those little hand-knitted booties are adorable — who made them?
I found the song I was looking for.. next I just have to find the music. but it goes
They call me Sir Robin the brave
And history one day will rave I’m valiant and daring and noble of bearing, courageous and gallant, a mountain of talent
No wonder folks curtsey and wave!
I’m Robin, Sir Robin, the brave.

Awwww. His little feetsies brought tears to my eyes. (Damn hormones!)

Then of course there’s also the Monty Python version of ‘Sir Robin the Brave’…
The booties were made by Mimi Burke, a family friend I’ve known all my life. There’s a matching hat too!

Amy — you’re getting pretty close now, aren’t you?!

Si, I mean whey. I’m about a month out. I’m ready for me, but not for her. She needs to bake a little while longer.
Anyway, you have an adorable baby and I get all emotional looking at pictures of him. Darn it all! I have tears in me eyes again. 🙂

Aw, thank you!
And best wishes on that last month–it can be kinda uncomfortable, I know…
