Deady
Gin
"When she told me her favorite deady was Bombay Sapphire, I knew this was gonna be a great first date. 'Two deadys and tonic!' I yelled to the bartender, who obliged with a wink."
Hi. My first novel, Rock Bottom, was published by Back Bay Books/Little, Brown, in 2009, and is being staged as a musical by the Landless Theater Company in 2011. I am working on novels in which mishaps occur, and people must make those mishaps right, though sometimes they would prefer to just lie around and watch TV. I also teach at Seattle University, and prefer sunny days.
