About me:
I'm an author of teen and adult books. My first novel, A Red Polka Dot In A World Full of Plaid, was published by Genesis Press in 2005. My next novel, My Life As A Rhombus, will be published by Flux/Llewellyn in Jan 2008. Check out my website if you'd like to find out more about me or my books.

FYI -- I know the cover of the book features a girl, but I'm a dude.

Hey V,
It was great seeing you at the signing. I did get through your book, although it took me a good week to get to it. I actually let one of my kids start reading it. He gave it a thumbs up! Anyway, I read it in 2 days!! Fantastic! I can't believe how much you really understood life from a teenagers perspective! Keep it up and let me know when the next one comes out!!!
