My new novel, Burner, is officially available today! Those of you who pre-ordered should receive your copy today if you haven’t already, and those of you who have not purchased the novel yet can do so now on Bookshop.org, Books Inc, Amazon, or your favorite book store.
April is finally here, and with it comes the launch of my latest novel, Burner, on April 16. The days leading up to the release of a new book are incredibly exciting but also a bit nervy for an author. As proud as I am of this book, there is a distinct sense of vulnerability that accompanies its widespread availability.
One of the ways I teach myself to become a better writer is by reading voraciously. The last three years, I have read an average of one novel per week, or 52 books per year.
The other day, I had the idea to roast some spicy cashews. So I did what most home cooks do: I searched for a recipe on my phone. What I got was a page on RecipesfromaPantry.com that was so laden with ads I could barely find the actual recipe.
