Meg Waite Clayton said… - Barbara, how fun that you find your way to Palo Alto. I have a son your age, at University of Chicago. I'm in the middle of a very hectic time, trying to get a new draft of my novel to my editor along with a lot of other things going on, but keep me in mind next time you're up this way.

Barbara Field said… - Thank you for the sweet welcome. My only kid--a son--is in Palo Alto; he's a sophomore at Stanford. Your novel looks fantastic. An ex-lawyer? My dad was a lawyer. I've moved a lot, too. I'll have a website, but here's my book (http://www.amazon.com/Deeper-Bluer-Barbara-Field/dp/0595133789/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1263870528&sr=8-1). Am slammed at my fulltime job at UC San Diego as Communications Manager and will also be teaching for UCSD Extension, but do want to keep our correspondence going, Meg! All best, Barbara

Best,
