Wibble
A bad drink
"Janet thinks of herself as a real mixmaster, but her latest concoction, The Lacy Eight – consisting of gin, rum, and peppermint schapps – is some serious wibble."
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.
