Kindle Edition of the WGTP is Finally Here!

The Kindle version of The Writer's Guide to Psychology is finally available!!  If you prefer a hard copy, of course, you can also get one of those!

Writer Stina Lindenblatt posted a wonderful review of the WGTP this morning -- she called it brilliant! You can check it out here.

In other news, my latest Psychology Today post, What You Think You Know About Psychology May Be Wrong, was selected to be an Essential Read in PT's Creativity area, and was also recognized in a CNN Health blog.  The post is essentially a reiteration of the WGTP's premise, so if you like the post, you'll love the book!

Finally, don't forget the upcoming book signing in Columbus, Ohio: Saturday, January 22nd @ 2pm at the Borders on Kenny Road.

Blogging for Psychology Today

I'm excited to announce something I've had under my hat for about a week and a half now: Psychology Today asked me to join their illustrious group of bloggers!  My little corner of the Psychology Today universe is Psychology for Writers: Insights for the Writer and the Writing.

I just published my first post, which tackles the controversial issue of haunted asylums--controversial because mental health advocacy groups like NAMI strongly disagree with them.

Why should writers care?

Because they may be tempted to use stereotypes like the ones used for haunted asylums...when there's a trick to finding fresher (and even creepier) ideas.  Read more here and leave a comment behind to let me know you visited!

Edit: Psychology Today quoted me in their rotating header for the day, an honor only 5 people get a day. Pretty exciting for Day 1 of posting!
