July - August 2008 | Spice of Life
I’m so excited to introduce our August Man-of-the-Month, the sexy and talented George Pelecanos. You may know him as one of the writers and producers of the HBO series The Wire or you may know him as the gritty crime novelist of books like The Night Gardener or Right as Rain, but he is […]
Interviewer: So, Bev, how was your day?
Bev: I want to run away from home.
Interviewer: Why?
Bev: The truth is right now, I wish I were dead.
Colleen Gleason isn’t just the creator of a fabulous series of novels that combine all the best aspects of Regency romance with the action and excitement of vampire slaying, she’s also a reader and a blogger. We met (virtually) when she left a comment on one of my blogs suggesting that I might like her […]
We continue our chat with Cover Girl the up-and-coming actress, Francia Raisa. (If you missed it, check out the first part of her interview.)
Is it difficult to be a Latina actress in Hollywood? Do you find racism a problem there?
I think racism goes on everywhere, but especially here. You’re always hearing people […]

We decided to head out on our trip after we both got home from work, so we rushed through our workday and managed to finish early. When we got home we immediately began to pack and Marley knew something was afoot. We’ve gone on trips […]
Our cover girl this month Francia Raisa (born Francia Raisa Almendárez), is a hot Latin firecracker who can add a little spice to your life. This beautiful, warm-hearted young woman has taken the first steps on the road to super-stardom recently, by starring in the ABC TV movie The Cutting Edge 3: Chasing the […]
Crosby Loggins is many things, amongst them he is the eldest child of the Grammy award-winning musician Kenny Loggins and winner of MTV’s reality show Rock the Cradle, but most importantly he is a talented singer-songwriter and musician. He may have begun life as the privileged son of an internationally acclaimed rock star, but […]
“There are love objects we simply dream up. They are not real people to us; they are the embodiment of a dream. We unleash both want and need onto them and while we’re dreaming, we believe that they can fill up the bottomless pit where want and need are endlessly renewed.” Nuala O’Faolian from Almost […]
Breena Clarke is the author of the best selling novel River Cross My Heart, which was chosen by Oprah as one of her “Book Club” books. We recently chatted about her upcoming novel, Stand the Storm, which will be published on July 28, 2008.

I swore to myself that I would not allow another issue of ATG to publishing without my column. But here I sit on June 29th at a lovely outside café enjoying a little Thai food (please forgive the lemon sauce) while the eighth or ninth draft of my July column winds its way from […]
Letting go isn’t easy. Especially for someone who tends to hold on to things for dear life. You won’t find seven years of Time Magazines or 600 pairs of shoes in my home. But, you will find little stacks of folded papers that I’ve scribbled notes on. Ones I’m afraid I will need desperately the […]
When I first told people that I was taking my 3-year-old Manx cat on a road trip to Maine, they looked at me as though I was a mixture of the bravest person they knew and the stupidest. And having never done any long pet trips before, I was inclined to agree with them. […]
“To everything there is a season,
a time for every purpose under the sun.
A time to be born and a time to die;
a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
a time to kill and a time to heal …
a time to weep and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn […]
