Hi! If you’ve found BaconOnTheBookshelf, someone’s probably sent you the link – it’s a word-of-mouth thing. I’m delighted you’ve stopped in and hope you’ll stay for a while!
A little bit about me: I’m living and blogging in Nashville, Tennessee. I don’t miss practicing law. Pepper (pictured above) reminds me on a daily basis that life is messy, wonderful, and full of adventures. Here at Bacon, I write book reviews, poems, and stories about Pepper. Guest writers contribute most every week. We keep things lively by featuring a wide variety of books, especially but not always current releases.
You can find some of my book reviews at StyleBlueprint and Nfocus.
Please let me know what you’re reading now and what you’ll read next! I’d love to hear from you! xoxo

Jennifer, great blog! I am the gentleman you recently met that works w/ award-winning screenwriter, Paul W. Cooper.
