A Taste Of Heaven, my new middle grade book, is being published by Penguin Canada and will be out in stores Feb/2013. It's been a couple of years in the making. Quite a few drafts. I wanted to write a cozy book about best friends and family and comfy cooking. I wanted to see if I could shift away from the darker themes that seem to spring up in my writing. Write a book that goes well with a cup of hot chocolate, a roll of lifesavers, a bag of penny candy. I'm not sure if I've been successful or not. Hope so. xo
