Ann writes for us on anything that strikes her fancy, even if we ask her not to. Her most recent novel, Bel Canto (HarperCollins, 2001), won the PEN/Faulkner Award and the Orange Prize and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. She lives in Nashville and spends far too much time doting on her dog Rose (even brushes her teeth).

The Zen of Frosting
The icing on the cake, says Ann Patchett, is like the short skirt or the fast car—turning our heads and making promises it can't keep.
