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:

Thank you! We are all doing really well. I’ve been thinking of you, Shannon, since you and I had similar birth experiences and similarly rocky starts to nursing the first time. The second time through, the birth and the nursing have both been dramatically different for me, and SO much easier. It’s a wonderful bonus, though of course the main point is that we have another healthy, happy daughter.

Oh, wonderful to hear that it went more easily this time! The picture you sent with Ibby looking at Charlotte was so cute, I spontaneously teared up.
