Offbeat Bride t-shirts are back by popular demand — and with a new tagline! A very special thanks to Nicole for coming up with !

At the suggestion of a clever OBT member, I'm offering the shirts for pre-order so that I can offer TWO colors instead of just one.

So now you can choose between two fabulous colors and sizes for everyone: little girls, big girls, and big boys too! I'm offering pre-orders at a discounted price: $20, which includes shipping. Shirts ordered up until 2/25 will be shipped by 3/7.
Pre-order yours today!

Hello, ladies! This is just a quick heads-up to let you know that for the next couple weeks I'll be posting a less because I've got some exciting stuff going on with trying to sell my next book! I'll be in for a few days starting this Friday, and then on the (!!!) next Tuesday 2/19 talking about my 52 Nights Unplugged project.

I normally try to post every day Monday-Friday, but for the next couple weeks it may be more like every other day. I'll be back in full-force the week of 2/25.
