“Miles”, The House of Bannerman, book 1 The goal is to make all of my books available through apple, although that’s going to take a while to transfer from .doc to Epub, and redo the formatting. But for now, Miles is available. As before, all books continue to be available on Amazon and Barnes & […]
How far off that horizon is I cannot say, but Fox’s short story is on chapter two, an untitled stand-alone has several pages of fresh notes, and the plot for the 7th book in the House of Bannerman series is brewing. No notes, no pages, but… I don’t know how everyone else’s mind works, but […]
Release date is August 26, 2025. According to the copyright page on Jack and Charlotte’s latest book, it’s taken eight years to complete. I’m not sure that’s entirely true, because books get their copyright when I first begin a file for them, which might be during the writing of several books that ultimately precede them. […]
I’m thrilled to announce I’ve been hard at work finishing up Gone in a Flash, the third book in The Investigations of Jack Ryland series. The anticipated completion date is early July, and will be available for purchase about a month or so after that, which allows for a reasonable pre-order time frame and the […]
With eyes like Martin’s, who wouldn’t be a little nervous. Knowing him, there’s no knowing what he’ll try next. Gemma of the Mystery Lane series jokes about Will Matthews writing her into existence, and I begin to suspect not only did Fidget leap off the pages of the House of Bannerman series, but Herman came […]
It’s taken almost a month to say anything at all, because there’s just no easy way to say this. The sad truth is that on February 12th, after a long battle to hold kidney disease at bay, complete kidney failure set in and we had no choice but to say goodbye to our dear friend, […]
Fidget experienced her first snow yesterday! Born and raised in Houston, that’s not too surprising. This is Arctic’s second snow, so he wasn’t as impressed. He wasn’t distressed either, but far more interested in searching for peanuts the squirrels may have dropped. As for most of the rest of us, it was very exciting to […]
To say this past year has been busy, is an understatement! It’s all been one thing after another, and I REALLY hope everything will settle down soon. Fidget no longer needs taken out during the night, thank goodness, so I’m beginning to make up the past ten months of lost sleep. She’s a year old […]
I could hardly sleep last Saturday night, knowing we would be bringing Fidget home the next morning. It’s hard to believe only a week has gone by since then, because in a way it feels like she’s always been here. Fidget of the House of Bannerman series is sweet, cuddly, and on the smaller side. […]
If it seems sudden, it is! In a way. After losing Indy, what we knew for certain was that we needed time to grieve. Now and then we talked about getting another dog, and went back and forth over whether we should or not. When Arctic was over-the-top anxious, we knew it would be a […]
