Aloha. Check out Sara Backer's American Fuji blog. She's featuring bytes of e-mail interviews with me and photos as part of helping me get out the good word on BURN & LEARN, the newest novel in 2009. See you there.

P.S. Chapter 53 of BURN & LEARN is a mailable postcard. That alone is worth the price of admission. Admit it!
