New Meghan Daum book expected early next year

Daum wrote to subscribers to her L.A. Times column list online (which you can sign up for here):

As you may have noticed, the column has been a bit less frequent of late. In order to meet a book deadline, I've decided to scale the column back to twice a month for the next few months. This will likely continue through the summer. Thanks for your patience and, as always, for being such faithful readers. This column is now in its eighth year -- hard to believe!

 Meghan, you are welcome and don't worry about it! (My favorite Daum deep cut: "Music Is My Bag.")
