The Revenge of Shaken & Stirred

Gwenda Bond: YA author, writer of other things, and possible escapee from a screwball comedy. This is yet another place I put things online. Find out more at my home territory or stick a pin in the twitter map. My first novel is BLACKWOOD, a modern take on the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island (available now). Next up are THE WOKEN GODS (Sept. 2013) and GIRL ON A WIRE (summer 2014).

I will happily try to answer Asks. Just drop them via the Magic 8 Ball (aka Ask) at the top of the page. And shake.

I’m on this earth to put up a feeble fight against the horrible tendency people have to think that there’s a formula. “If I do the following things, I’ll get elected president.” No you won’t. “If I do the following things, my work of art will be good.” Not necessarily. “If I follow this recipe, the dish will come out very delicious.” Maybe.

Trust me, there is no formula for most things that are not math.

Daniel Pinkwater on Pineapple Exam: ‘Nonsense on Top of Nonsense’ - Metropolis - WSJ / Okay, one more. This is Pinkwater we’re talking about. And these are words to live by: “Trust me, there is no formula for most things that are not math.”
