A few decades ago I met my husband in a bookstore where he picked me up by convincing me to go to his dorm room to lend me the books I was looking at so I didn’t have to buy them. Over a decade ago I started writing strange books about our lives that somehow […]
First off, I just went through and counted and it looks like 432 kids were gifted with new stuffed animals this week during the 15th Annual James Garfield Miracle. Holy crap. I love you guys. Secondly, I wrote this for my substack today but I’m sharing it here too in case you don’t substack but […]
Hello and welcome to the FIFTEENTH ANNUAL James Garfield Miracle! (HOW??) “What is the James Garfield Miracle?” you may be asking. You must be new here. HELLO AND WELCOME. 15 years ago I walked into an estate sale and fell in love with an ancient taxidermied boars head that seemed so damn happy to see me. I did […]

I’ve had a lot of people ask if I’m leaving Texas. I totally support those who feel like they need to move for their safety or sanity, but I don’t plan to leave. Perhaps that may change one day but for now I’ll continue to be here…a small blue dot. And Nowhere Bookshop will be […]
