What Is This? Where Am I?

Welcome, fellow luddite. You have landed in After Dear Abby, a behind-the-scenes look into the brain of a budding author. (Say that five times fast.) Here, I’ll post reflections on my writing journey, news about my books, and sneak peeks into my projects. Maybe some advice, too.
