As you may have heard, I will no longer be in attendance in Pittsburgh. I'm sad about it because I really wanted to go there (but I want to go everywhere), but I really, really can't do all of these signings. It's expensive, time consuming, and as you know I've been dealing with a lot as it is. When I started getting invites for my 2015 signings last year, I jumped on all of them because I hadn't been able to go to any because of chemo.
A couple of weeks ago I sat down and looked at the ...

Normal.
My aunt, who lives in Dominican Republic, was diagnosed with cancer in November. I found out about it the day I finished my last chemo treatment, which was bad since I was already experiencing a bittersweet moment knowing that it would be my last time there but so many were just starting and would never finish, etc.
Unlike my specific cancer, hers has no cure. Still her oncologist suggested chemo so that she could try everything. She's a vain person, my aunt, and I don't mean that in a bad ...

Just things.
A year ago this month I was diagnosed with breast cancer, and in light of that, I have a few things to get off my chest. I’ve had something to say for a while, but I’ve put it off because I wasn’t sure how to write it without sounding like an asshole. Then I realized, I am an asshole sometimes, so I might as well own up to it and do it. Still, I’m going to try to word this as nicely as I can.
I was talking to a friend of mine, whose mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, and the ...

Kaleidoscope Hearts Spin Off, anyone?
Hi!! I've been neglecting this for a while. I know. I'm a horrible blog keeper, but I have news for you! I've gotten a lot of emails asking about Mia and Jensen's story when you guys finish reading Kaleidoscope Hearts (I love those emails, by the way!), and I haven't been able to answer truthfully. I keep saying, "We'll see!" to deflect, but the truth is I've been working on their story for a while :). This is the part where you say, "Okay, so where is it?" and then I respond, "I'm still ...
