FROM HER\\xa0BIO and WEBSITE:

\\n\\n

"I love talking about the writing life and all aspects of humor including humor writing and finding humor in difficult times. My next book,\\xa0\\u2018Tis the Season to Feel Inadequate,\\xa0is a humorous take on the way we Americans create celebrations for everything then turn them into a chores, or worse, nightmares. \\u2019Tis the Season to Feel Inadequate\\xa0is a collection of humorous pieces about holidays, special occasions and other times our celebrations make us feel not-so-celebratory. It\\u2019s understanding for those who think Christmas form letters can be honest\\u2014or they can be interesting. And it\\u2019s empathy for anyone who\\u2019s ever gotten poison ivy during Nude Recreation Week or eaten all their Halloween candy and had to hand out instant oatmeal packets to their trick-or-treaters.\\xa0I love to talk about all of that too!\\xa0

\\n\\n

I live in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota, 20 miles from Mount Rushmore, something I\'m very proud of though I\'m not on it.
