Ready for the @vromans launch event for @maryleaca

Ready for the @vromans launch event for @maryleacarroll's SOMEHOW SAINTS? The event is tonight at 6pm, so make sure to RSVP via the Vromans website to get the crowdcast link! Mary Lea will be in conversation with @liandolan. And if you need a cocktail recommendation, here's @fiatgal's recipe for a Somehow Saints themed drink: Stigmata ala AGM

2 servings, or 4 very tiny ones

In honor of @maryleacarroll's newest book, #somehowsaints

2 oz vodka

1 oz ginger liqueur (such a smooth flavor)

1 oz grenadine syrup (Yes Cocktail Co.)

1 oz Luxardo Cherry (Sangue Morlacco/black blood)*

.50 oz juice of yuzu (citrus that tastes like a cross between a clementine and a meyer lemon)

3 large basil leaves

A splash of sparkling wine

Muddle 3 basil leaves with vodka. Strain into shaker with the rest of the ingredients, shake with ice cubes until ice-cold, perhaps 15 seconds or so. Pour into a sexy cocktail glass, top off with sparkling wine. Enjoy!

*Named by poet Gabriele D’Annunzio in 1919.

Never mind the Real Housewives of Orange County—

Never mind the Real Housewives of Orange County—Marla Jo Fisher is the woman everyone can relate to, complete with bad parenting, rotten dogs, ill health, and fashion faux pas. For nearly two decades, in the Orange County Register and many syndicated papers, readers have delighted in Marla Jo’s subversive humor, cranky intellect, and huge heart on her journey through broke, single, after-40 motherhood, when she adopted Cheetah Boy and Curly Girl, to her oddball adventures around the globe, to the sublime ridiculousness of life next door. Even while facing a devastating diagnosis, Fisher teaches us that humor is the balm that eases and the very thing that binds us together. Available November 24!

Gumshoe Magazine says of Andy Weinberger's REASON

Gumshoe Magazine says of Andy Weinberger's REASON TO KILL: "Amos Parisman is one of the most unique PIs in literary history…a superb character study…Amos Parisman serves as a guide, leading readers from one crime scene to another while reflecting on mankind’s moral decay. His reflections on life are witty and insightful (and sometimes depressing). He provided me with many reasons for wanting to read future installments in the Amos Parisman Mystery series."

If you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of The Elements of Style. The first greatest, of course, is to shoot them now, while they’re happy.
