Pantler
Butler
"Jesus, did you see the way Dave has his new intern carrying his lunch around and making him open doors for him? He's treated that poor kid like a total pantler!"
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.
