Various Sundries: Desks, Twitter, and Trendy Writing

Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized

Oh my god, guys! I’ve been so busy! So busy that I half-started a post on Wednesday’s YA Highway Roadtrip Wednesday Topic (because, as someone about to give away all of her furniture, move, and get new stuff–including a new desk; I can’t wait!–I have a lot to say about it!). But alas, it’s been [...]

Merteaser Mertuesday: The Merman Problem

Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized

Today’s teaser explains some of the mechanics and biology of my mermaids. I have to admit that I winced a bit when I read this excerpt from Hannah Moskowitz’s blog from her current work-in-progress, which also features a merman, and raises similar questions of biology. But, hell, if you’re writing about mermen that do it, [...]

This program is completely addictive. Where’d the last hour go? Why, to drawing unicorns and ninja turtles, of course. Thanks, Pat, for the link

Hopped Up on Goofballs

Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized

There’s an awesome post by Sherwood Smith up at the Bookview Cafe Blog about writing for teens. I’d have more to say about this if I wasn’t hopped up on codeine right now. Legal, I swear! I’ve had a lot of dental work lately and this weekend some mild, niggling pain turned into laying-on-the-ground-sobbing-in-pain. I’ve [...]

On Not Writing for Grown-Ups

Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized

There’s great article by Mary Pearson on tor.com right now on YA literature. Who writes it? People like me. People who find the teen years fascinating and the nuances of teen literature a challenge. I am not writing it as “practice” so I can one day write an adult book (I am asked that a [...]

Poppopisms and Other Emmyart

Posted by Phoebe | Filed under Uncategorized

Somehow I failed to realize that Poppopisms, a handmade booklet of my grandfather’s sayings tucked into a faux-leather wallet is available for sale on my sister’s website. One of my poems is included, printed on a fake receipt. My sister’s artwork is awesome, by the way. I love how we have intersecting themes. In any [...]
