“Cottonwood Hotel” is 241 pages. I find that life, my own, sometimes gets in the way of my characters resolving their mysteries in a timely fashion. Such is, well… life. Tomorrow is Em’s first day of 7th grade. This year she won’t ride the bus. She’ll walk to school, instead. I hope it isn’t too […]
Jack’s new book, Cottonwood Hotel, is now at a respectable 233 pages. He and Charlotte are so close to the end of this mystery, but they’re also worn out and have nothing to say at the moment. Understandable, considering all they’ve been through. So, they’re getting a small break. Because I have no choice. I’m […]
“Cottonwood Hotel” is now on page 183. If I can manage page 200 by Monday, I’ll be thrilled. We’ll see. I’m beginning to realize where Jack Ryland comes from. I’ve seen a lot of him in my daughter lately. While she doesn’t deal with ADHD, she does struggle to maintain focus on some things, such […]
Yesterday, Brad and I visited one of the community groups (otherwise known as Sunday school) at church. This is the third one we visited.

And yes, it is. This summer is flying by as quickly as the spring. We’ve been super busy around here. It took three months, but we found a church we’re excited to be a part of, and that’s major. We’ve decided to homeschool next year, which is also major. I’ve been attending a bible study […]
Jack Ryland’s second book is in the works. It picks up right where “Last Chance Inn” leaves off. Exceedingly early the next morning, anyway. After a rapid descent from the edge of a cliff in the first book, Jack needs a safe place to sleep off his injuries. Cottonwood Hotel fits the bill. After staying […]

It’s done! Complete at 312 pages! Now I’m off to read it through and do any editing that needs doing. Expect a July release!
Here’s a hint at the plot of the 5th book in The House of Bannerman Series… When Miles and Anika stop by their apartment to pick up a couple of sweaters and some boots, the last thing they expect to find is a cloud of darkness hovering over their favorite security guard. Setting aside their […]
