Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting Susan Elizabeth Phillips before her signing for the HEROES ARE MY WEAKNESS tour stop in Sykesville, Maryland. We had an old-fashioned sit down chat where we talked about books, writing, and families while enjoying some delicious French coffee. I don't have the best track record when it comes to first impressions. In my nervousness, I usually say or do something embarrassing. This time, I only managed to drop my phone, my keys and my purse 4 times in the time it took me to climb out of my car and shake Susan's hand. That counts as winning.  Susan was staying at a charming Bed and Breakfast that was within walking distance of the cafe we were headed to, so we decided to walk. We passed several old victorian homes, one in particular that reminded me of Theo's house in HEROES ARE MY WEAKENESS. Susan paused to snap a picture and said, "Paint it black and put it on a cliff and it you have Harp House."  Photo cr...
