ahream Dispatches from the City of Angels I'm a mystery writer living in and writing about Los Angeles. You can catch my short story, "Running Venice," in the new anthology LAndmarked for Murder. Look for it in bookstores and on Amazon.com now. In the meantime, feel free to poke around. Over at my website you can find even more blog entries than I could fit here, as well as a few other ramblings. Enjoy and come back often.

Productivity declining. L.A. Finds: The Denver omelet at Pat's in Topanga is sublime in its simplicity. Exactly what you need and nothing else, much like the restaurant itself snuggled smack in the middle of an old hippie community where the peace signs and tie-dye still reign. Flickr Updates: The second Thursday of every month is the Downtown Art Walk. The galleries stay open late, the restaurants are packed, bands perform on the streets. God, I love L.A.

It’s hysterical. She’s hysterical. Really, you’d have to have a hell of a sense of humor to be her. Otherwise you’d have stuck your head in the oven a long time ago. But my adoration has been called into question. She has linked to a video of her and her husband clearly taken in a dim sum restaurant. For the love of all that is holy I hope that video was taken on their trip to San Francisco because otherwise it means she ate dim sum in Utah. And I know I’m from the Midwest and I know I roll my eyes every time an Angeleno asks if we have indoor plumbing there yet, but Jesus H. Christ, dim sum in Utah? That could kill you. It could kill you dead. And if it didn’t, surely it would mangle you. There will be scarring. Taste bud scarring that will leave you unable to enjoy chocolate cake ever again.
