An excerpt from me about Piper and Mabel

Merry Church of the Small Things Eve!

Is that a real thing?

Only if you care.

And apparently I do because I got home from church yesterday and spent the entire afternoon cleaning my house from top to bottom. This is not normally how I spend my Sunday afternoons. But it’s like I was nesting before my new baby arrives. I can’t explain this phenomenon except that somewhere it’s triggered by the need to control something you can actually control. I can’t make everyone buy my new book but I can dang well make sure my baseboards are clean and all the towels are bleached. The mind is a weird thing.

Today’s excerpt is by me with a guest appearance by Piper and Mabel. I’ll tell you what I learned from this experience. P and I do not have a future in dog-wrangling. Or maybe Mabel is just camera shy. I don’t know.

Today is the last day you can order and get all the free stuff for pre-ordering here. (If you have pre-ordered and never got your link with all the stuff, please email me with your order number and let me know!)

There are still signed copies available for pre-order at Barnes & Noble with exclusive bonus content and a bullet journal in the back. You can order one here.

And you can find it on Amazon here.

And you can find the book trailer and all other buying options here.

Also, if you’re in San Antonio, I’m going to be on Daytime at Nine on Fox this morning and then San Antonio Living on NBC at 10:00.

Have a great Monday. I’ll just be here probably re-cleaning my house or biting my nails.
