About You Ate It

You Ate It is a story about big ideas, boy geniuses, girls of every persuasion, vineyards, pot farms, magical restaurants, sex and death, and coming to terms with one's gullibility.

Taking place in the Santa Ynez Valley, a haven and heaven to so many, an eccentric group of friends, artists and chefs come together to create the experience of building dreams. 

The novel addresses mass school shootings, evangelical vigilantism and the epidemic of drug addiction. It is funny, filthy and horrific. Toss in high tech high jinks, binary beauties, red/blue state politics, and a level of realism that makes people believe this place actually exists.
