Eddo and his sweet Mom both have asked questions that I have yet to answer. So, here goes:
Live, Laugh, Love: By the way, why did Eddo make you look devilish on your site? Lol, did your wings get clipped?
Edgy Mama: Yes, I do feel that marriage and kids has clipped my wings a bit. I’m the first to admit that I adore my family, yet I live in fear of losing my edge to motherhood. When exploring ideas for my blog “persona,” the duality of Mom/housewife and thriller/horror writer seemed to speak best for my current state of being. Thus, the horns fit. Actually, Eddo’s name for this template is “Delightfully Devilish Diva.”
Eddo: Do you cook? All the food you describe at The Silver Wolf restaurant sounds delicious.
Edgy Mama: I do cook, but only when the spirit moves me. In my novel Storm Mountain, two of the main characters have moved to a resort town in the Rockies to open a restaurant–The Silver Wolf.
I love restaurants and good food, and because I live in a resort town, I know a number of people who are in “the business.”
I’m cooking tonight for two of E-spouse’s cousins who are coming to town. One of them is gluten-intolerant, so I’m making a stir-fry with chicken, lots of fresh vegetables, and my secret homemade stir-fry sauce. You’d love it, Eddo.
Other questions?

With every job, there are parts that you don’t like… What don’t you like about writing?
I’m afraid to read your book because the only time I was in the Rockies, I could hardly breathe (and I’m not that old). While someone told me it was the elevation, I think it was more that I was breathing fresh air for the first time in my life. I ended up spending one afternoon in an “oxygen bar.” Maybe that’s a good locale for some future scene.
I know exactly what you mean about losing your edge to motherhood. I’ve been battling with that of late. Somehow Robin has gotten lost. I’m seeking her out again.
What gives you your edge?
Sounds good to me. I suppose if you post the suace recipe it won’t be secret anymore. Okay, that does it- I’m going to B&N first thing in the AM. I need to read this book.
I’m here, Edgy Mama… I’m not incurious, I’m just having a case of brain freeze. I’ll stop back tomorrow. ~:^)
Neil,
The book doesn’t include extra oxygen, although maybe it should.
Vicki,
Don’t go to B&N–they’ve overpriced the book. Go to http://www.authorhouse.com.
I’d send you a copy, but I’m all out!
Thanks for the support!
I was out yesterday and so I missed this post - or perhaps I was so blogged-down on Tuesday that I overlooked it - either way it was a good one and it is a good thing that I just got back from Tin Star or else I would be hungry for some stir fry. At Tin Star I had a Buffalo Chicken taco with bleu cheese crumbles and carrot strips. It sounds like a strange combo but the textures and flavors really work well together.
I also had some of their corn jalepeo pico salsa and some of my mom’s steak, demi-glaze potatoes, and spinach. Everything was delicious.
Now who’s hungry?
