I wrote a book. It’s called Planting Dandelions: Field Notes From a Semi-Domesticated Life. It’s about becoming a family, while still belonging to myself.
It’s funny and soulful, and it presents ordinary, everyday life as something epic and extraordinary.
Because it is.
I’m thrilled that it’s being published by Riverhead Books in April 2011. You can pre-order Planting Dandelions through these links or through your preferred bookseller:
(I had no idea what a big deal pre-orders are until I wrote a book. In case you didn’t know this either, they’re a big deal. Pre-orders save lives. Okay, I made that last bit up. But they really do help, so thank you, pre-orderers.)
You can also add it to your books on GoodReads.
And you can like my author page on Facebook.
