I'm still busy chugging away on The Sweetest Burn, but last week, I took a couple days off from writing to – gasp – think about the book to make sure that I’m showing the characters, plot and subplot the way I see them in my head.

And really, how interesting is that to say in several different ways, let alone one? :) I will have some scene snippets from … [Read more...] about Whatcha watchin’?

As the subject line states, I have no central theme for today's post. Just different items. First up, I've added one more appearance to my 2015 schedule. I will now be attending the Romance Writers of America (RWA) convention in New York, NY from July 22nd through July 25th, at the New York Marriott … [Read more...] about Topic potpourri

Thanks to everyone who voted for Up From The Grave in the DABWAHA competition! Our bracket had a record turnout, however, Up From The Grave did not advance. Still, it was really cool to have it in the contest at all, let alone to have it make it past the first round. Plus, I loved the book that did … [Read more...] about Thanks, and about that bribe…
