Anne Cain does it again! This is the cover for my upcoming Samhain novel The Happy Onion. Ain’t it purty??? I tell ya, she ONCE AGAIN captured the flavor of the story perfectly. I swear she can read my mind.
The book is kind of lighthearted, kind of funny, and full of sex. Which is why Anne put the boys in bed on the cover. They spend a lot of time there O_O
I haven’t added this one to my website yet, but you can read the blurb and an excerpt on the coming soon page on Samhain’s website. Click here and enjoy 
Just had to share this, I love love LOVE it

It is now…
**counts on fingers**
…57 days until the girl-child and I go to see Radiohead in Charlotte. SQUEE!! We’re on the damn lawn (thanks scalpers! you all suck diseased donkey balls!), but still. Major, major squee. This will be my third time seeing them, my daughter’s second.
New songs I am looking forward to hearing:
House of Cards
Bangers & Mash
Down Is The New UP
Reckoner
Faust Arp
all of them, really…
Older songs I really really hope they’ll play:
- Street Spirit
- I Am A Wicked Child (never heard this live, and DAMN I want to O_O)
- Airbag (please, guys! please please please!)
- Talk Show Host (again, PLEASE!!)
- Idioteque. This is a no brainer as they always play it
- Fog
- Like Spinning Plates
- How To Disappear Completely
- Creep. I will not apologize! I love the singalong aspect, I love hearing thousands and thousands of people all singing the same thing at the same time, and I REALLY love the inevitable person declaring “you are special, Thom!” at the critical spot
I am so stoked about going to this show! I love the atmosphere at a Radiohead show, the way you feel so connected to everyone around you. Plus it’s great mother-daughter bonding
