I'm guest blogging this week on "Single Mom Seeking" and the comments have really heated up! A whole lot of people seem up in arms about A and I moving in together.

Well only "alone" if you don't count my amazing girlfriend A and her delicious little two-year-old daughter M. It's just the three of us here and it's been very good for me to bond better with M. I really am falling in love with her.

Workwise I was dreading being stuck here in humid Manhattan almost all of August. If it weren't for A I would take advantage of this freedom from the kids and high tail it to Costa Rica and surf and write for the month, but instead I'm writing my butt off here at home. It's been good for me and feels wonderful. I'm diving back into one of my favorite scripts but I think it is so much more nuanced and funny and moving than ever. Plus, the weather hasn't been so oppressive of late so after writing well in the morning I still have an entire summery afternoon to play with my girls.

I've done a fair amount of radio interviews but yesterday I did my first ever stint as host. I was a bit nervous and tried my best not to speak too quickly (as I tend to) and I think it went all right. I was interviewing Elvis Mitchell and Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, on their amazing new film, "The Blacklist." It's an elegant and moving documentary and companion book of portraits and personal statements from 22 very prominent black folks from all walks of life.

It will air on KCRW and on NPR stations nationwide in mid August.
