I just had the best time with the Twin Cities own Lori & Julia on MyTalk 107. A wonderful interview and discussion about Chanel Bonfire and moms and crazy moms and who gets out alive!
Click the link to the podcast of the show. I think we come in around the middle of the hour!

Thanks to everyone who came out for the event in West Hollywood last night! And thanks to BookSoup! It was a smashing success. Looking forward to Books, Inc. in San Francisco on March 9th!
I wish I could get to every indie bookstore, everywhere! Darn those pesky kids and their breakfasts, lunches, school activities and suppers! But if your book group is planning to read Chanel, I’d be happy to do a Skype Q&A with you! Just let me know via my email: chanelbonfire@gmail.com Thanks for reading!

The Writer Mom’s Office
Essential Friends
My mother was not “beautiful” but she was striking — the kind of woman every man would look at when she entered a room.
“A week later, a postcard arrived from the Caribbean. In my mother’s curly, perfect Catholic-school handwriting she wrote that she was there with my stepfather, she wanted a divorce, and that the weather was warm and sunny.” — Chanel Bonfire
All In The Timing 20th Anniversary
Before I became a mom, before I started writing, I was an actress who had the privilege of working with these two wonderful gentlemen…
The delightful Robert Stanton, your author, and the brilliant David Ives at Primary Stage’s 20th Anniversary Production of “All In The Timing” in New York City. The original production, an off-Broadway smash, was my last appearance on the stage and the show during which my son, Harry, was conceived. My dear friend and dressing roommate, Nancy Opel, helped me conceal the truth as long as possible by secretly moving the buttons on my costume!
