I’m 78% through another reading of “Last Chance Inn” and then it’s on to “Depart.” I’ve got 40 something pages written on it, and in re-reading them, I was very disappointed to get to the end! I want to know what happens next! I do, roughly, but books have a way of taking off in […]
Success! The snow was braved, and now this little Robo dwarf hamster is taking a nap in her new home. The trip was successful, in spite of only returning with one. The lady at PetSmart assured me although the other Robos that were in the cage with her are siblings, and getting along fine for […]
Book 1 is done, and in the hands of my proofreaders! I’ve enjoyed writing this book tremendously, and I’m anxious to get book 2 underway. But, I’ve got “Depart the Darkness,” HOB book 5, to finish first. I’m looking forward to that, too. And, to starting the museum book, which will have a title when […]
There was an upgrade to the theme I use on this blog, and it messed up all sorts of things! I was not happy. I kind of liked how it looked before, and wanted it fixed. So, I queried Brad, who used to be into web development, and I have no idea what he does […]
“Last Chance Inn” is halfway there, and at this rate there just might be a January release for this one. We’ll see. There will be crossover, sometimes fairly significant, between Jack Ryland’s series and the House of Bannerman. I love crossover between books, like “Stonecastle Inn” and “Darkness Falls.” “Camp Emmaus” and “House of Shadows,” […]
This man is absolutely getting his own series. I’m on page 110 of “Last Chance Inn.” That’s 1/3 of the way through, but I can not stand the thought of saying goodbye to this guy. That’s how I felt about Miles and Anika, and that’s why “House of Shadows” was written alongside “Miles.” It’s also […]
I am loving this book, and these characters! Jack Ryland and Cheryl Adams are soooo much fun to write! I’m currently on page 25. I’m seriously considering making “Last Chance Inn” the first in a new series. I can almost say for certain that’s what’s going to happen. No idea what the series title will […]
“Hiding Treasure” is two chapters away from completion. That sounds a lot closer to being finished than it is, though. Next comes the first read-over to check for errors and story consistency. Maybe something changed along the way, so something at the beginning needs to be altered to match. Here’s an example; a certain character […]
I’m finishing up “Hiding Treasure.” Probably wise, since it’s already out for pre-order! “Last Chance Inn” is the next stand-alone book on my to-do list. I’ll be writing it alongside “Depart the Darkness,” HOB 5, which I’m looking forward to getting back to. Today the chapter I wrote involved a guy named Jack Ryland. He […]
601 Suspense Street, 2nd in the Mystery Lane series, is now available! We all knew that was coming, though. Unless you stumbled on this page by accident. Either way, the big news is that “Hiding Treasure” is available for pre-order! Now I can share the back-of-the-book description, too. So here it is… Twenty-four year old […]
