I had the honor of appearing on the local TV show (admittedly, a huge change from my normal I-can-wear-pajamas-while-I'm-on-the-radio scene) 'Off the Shelf' this month, where I discussed the process for writing and publishing my debut novel A Recipe from Rome.


We talked about the inspiration for the story, the hardest part of writing a novel, (and, no, it wasn't resisting my Italian cravings while writing this book... I included recipes for that very reason!), what readers have been saying about the book, the process for designing the cover, and more.
