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 […]
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 […]
