About meI'm the author of "Five Things I Can't Live Without" (July, 2007) and "Love and Other Natural Disasters" (January, 2009.) I split my time between writing novels and practicing therapy in the San Francisco bay area. Over on my website (www.hollyshumas.com), under "Musings", you can find my thoughts on love, relationships, books and publishing,(psycho)analysis of celebrity gossip, and other randomness. Glad to be here!
About my library"Love and Other Natural Disasters" is the story of a woman who's eight months pregnant when she discovers her husband has been having an emotional affair for the past year. It's perfect for book clubs, and I'd love to come to yours (in person in the SF area, or by call-in.) My first novel, "Five Things I Can't Live Without," was a lighthearted look at the neurotic art of self-sabotage. I'm working on my third novel now (a couple of third novels, actually), and we'll see which one pans out.
