We have internet! I feel connected to the rest of the world again. It’s been a loooong week trying to do everything on my iPhone. I appreciated having that, let me tell you, but I wasn’t crazy about all the “you’ve used 90% of your data” text warnings. The truth is, I used 2%. The […]
We’re officially out of the house, and staying at… an inn, much to Star’s satisfaction. And why wouldn’t she like it? She is, after all, Star of “Stonecastle Inn” fame. This is no Stonecastle however, and it’s safe to assume that Star is enjoying her stay more than the rest of us. Why, you ask? […]
The packers, who are amazing, are done. We’ve never before had a move that didn’t take two full days, but these people are the definition of efficiency. So tomorrow everything will get loaded, and we’ll be a day ahead of schedule. Yay for that! This is turning out, by far, to be the easiest move […]
I sit here at my desk trying to fathom that one week from tomorrow, the movers will be here to pack up, load up, and take off. They’ll do the loading and taking off on Wednesday, they can’t possibly get it done in under three days. But they’ll be here one week from tomorrow, and […]
So the verdict is in, we are moving. To another state. Again. This is a good thing though, I’m glad. I wouldn’t let Brad in the house yesterday until after he accepted the offer, actually. And it was really cold, there’s tons of snow. The weather was on my side. So we’ll be living elsewhere […]
“Terms of Engagement” hit the 250 page mark just seconds ago. I can’t possibly wrap this one up in the next 50 pages, so it’s not as close to completion as it otherwise would be. But it’s getting there! Now I’ve got to get back to writing it while I have the chance. As strongly […]
…and it’s only just begun! “Terms of Engagement” is now 184 pages. I have a hard time imagining this one won’t go well over 300. The book started out with two main characters, Casey Travis and Lina (Evangeline) Phillips. Then Lina’s older sister Patrice, and Evan Thompson the guy in the house across the street […]
There’s so much to look forward to in the coming year! I’m not going to list it all. Just the books. February 19, 2016, there’s “Last Chance Inn,” the first in a new series starring Jack Ryland, a PI who made his debut in a chapter of “Hiding Treasure.” “Cottonwood Hotel,” the second book in […]
Here it is, the cover for “Depart the Darkness,” HOB book 5. I’ve… written on it a little in the last few days. But, I’ve also completed the first chapter of “Cottonwood Hotel,” book 2 in The Investigations of Jack Ryland series. I’m on chapter 4 of “Terms of Engagement,” a stand-alone mystery, and both […]
“Last Chance Inn,” first in The Jack Ryland Investigations series, is complete. In fact, I just ordered the paperback proof and it’s set to arrive on Christmas Eve. I’ve got several pages written on “Cottonwood Inn,” book 2 in the Jack Ryland series. Jack is positively addicting, and it’s been a struggle to set his […]
