Score one for foolery: Sebastian does more than notice Brad he takes him to bed. Her two school-aged daughters think it's cool Mom's a writer, but aren't clear on why they can't tell Gramma about it.When not writing, Anne likes to read, travel, cook, and shirk housework.You can see what Anne is up to by checking out her (sadly neglected) blog at Works'18% Gray', Dreamspinner Press'Happy Birthday to Me', Dreamspinner Press'Whitetail Rock', Read more In the long, rainy, Pacific Northwest winter, writing is sometimes a mood-saver.Anne's husband is adorably confused by her love of reading and writing about man lurve, but he's always been a supportive sort.
