Rosi, thank you SO much for this lovely review of ALL FOUR STARS! I'm so very glad that you enjoyed it, and that you're going to share the story with a hungry new reader. :)

@Karen (and anyone else who's interested)--I'm happy to do a free 20-minute Skype session with any book club or class that has read the book and would like to do a Q&A! You can contact me through my website here to set something up: http://taradairman.com/contact.

Best,

Tara

A fourth voice chiming in here on the clean house...and I don't even have kids. :) My husband and I both love to cook, so we usually eat pretty well, but sadly, neither of us has a great passion for cleaning.

The only thing I'll say is that I can occasionally trick myself into doing a chunk of housework if I have a good audiobook to listen to at the same time. I can wash dishes and fold laundry for hours with my earbuds in and an exciting story flowing into my brain!

Haha, you're giving me way too much credit. I just Googled "upside down exclamation points" and copied and pasted from the first hit (which was Wikipedia). =)

Kristen, I'm with you! Those last few steps--making the final tweaks and word choices, getting it into shape to actually show someone--always take me way longer than I anticipate. I think that the fear of actually saying that something's done, that it's the best I can make it, and the subsequent pressure of having to put it out in the world, are a big part of it for me.

Must save the hydroponic farm! (Loved that pitch, Kristen.)

My favorite fish is the world's biggest: the whale shark. I highly recommend snorkeling with one if you ever get the chance.

P.S. Polly's original future Plan didn't include marshmallows? Like, not even one, ever? This makes me sad, but perhaps she is vegan or something. Will have to read the book to find out. =)

A quote from Ernest Hemingway for you: “Don't you like to write letters? I do because it's such a swell way to keep from working and yet feel you've done something.”

He'd probably approve of your Twitter hiatus. =)
