What is in a review? If it is a good one, it leaves the author feeling great! If it is a bad one…Many different emotions go through my head. I absolutely love my last three reviews, two for Allura which is just out and one for Safari Moon. I couldn’t want anything better. How do you feel about reveiws? (as an author and as a […]

Check out Coffee Time Romance for the first review of Allura: It has mystery, humor and, whew, steamy love scenes! An awesome group of characters make this read very entertaining, from the tough as nails Allura to her meddlesome younger sister, Aiden. There is never a dull moment throughout this book and you will surely not be disappointed. I can only hope that some of […]

Wow, it’s spring vacation again and I have so much to do. In honor of the 12 sisters/cousins in Allura’s household, I have decided to start a new blog. The blog will honor Aidan, the youngest of them all and will feature each relative as thier individual books are released. Since Aidan is already “in love” I wonder if she will marry her soul mate. […]

Allura will be released by awe-struck books next month. This book is the first in a series of twelve books. They were conceived several years ago with the help of my youngest daughter who was in middle school at the time. I cherish these books, in part, because of the wonderful time I had with Jenee. She plotted their horoscopes, gave them physical characteristics, and […]

What characteristics make up the best heroes? Does the best hero have great looks? Or is it his charm, something perhaps undefinable? Could the best hero simply be a person who leaves his cell phone in his car when he takes you out to dinner?

So, writing the novella is turning out to be a lot of fun. I was supposed to write a regency but somehow this one was in my head. I have always had a kind of connection with the Civil War, was always interested and so when we visited Gettysburg, I reconnected. The heroine is a southern bell, living near Fredricksburg in Virginia. She is left […]

There are so many interesting sights in New York city as well as the fascinating history. We all know that the Dutch settled on the southern tip of Manhattan Island and the English on the northern part. What I didn’t know was that the Dutch who were terribly afraid of an English invasion built a wall across the entire island to protect themselves. It was […]

Launching my new e-pub is getting exciting. I have some great books and the potential for more. The first commuter book should be out in about 6 months so the countdown is on. My friends and colleagues have helped a lot and have given me some great ideas. My family has also been there with great ideas and comments. What fun is this? When I […]

After Gettysburg we drove to Hershey. Hershey is a great place and a surprise for both of us. We had no idea that hiding behind the choclate factory was a rollercoster park. We might have opted to spend an entire day there and enjoy the various rides. But we didnt know and we didn’t have the time. So we satisfied ourselves with a visit to […]

Juggling is good for the soul. I think. At least I have time to work on all the things I put off during the winter. I’m starting a new book which I said I wasn’t going to do for a while. This was all generated by a long-time wish to write a War Between the States book. I visited Gettysburg two weeks ago on vacation […]
