About Me
- coffeelvnmom
- THREE WORDS: Coffee. Internet. Writing. Need I say more? (Okay, yes I do. I need to say more.) I'm presently in the querying stage of my YA urban fantasy novel, FLORA, and am working on another novel as well. Due to the popularity of my name, I'm seriously considering the pen name Snippy Snuffulapakins. (It's that or Jessica Coffee. Or Coffee Brooks. Or Brooks Coffee.) But for now, you can call me Snip.

Now that is wonderful!
I had to think about that for a moment (I don't know why), and now it has a meaning for me.
Lots of topics that interest me have been poorly written about, causing me to put the book down, and it's disappointing.
I've read other things on topics that don't necessarily interest me, but couldn't put the book down because of that inner music that Capote mentions.
EnJoy your weekend!
I love this quote!!! :)
