Are you ready for a new mystery picture game? With books for prizes. Some of you have played the game with me in the past before I changed my blog over to my website. I’m hoping some of you are still checking out my blog posts, but I haven’t gotten as many comments, so I’m afraid some of my readers …
October 3, 1966 Jocie Brook, preacher’s kid, reporting here from Hollyhill, Kentucky. Have you ever been at an all day church service? I mean literally all day? Morning till the sun goes down? If not, you must not be a preacher’s kid. Preachers’ kids spend a lot of time at church. A lot of time. Preachers’ kids are expected to …
The contest to celebrate my new book, Murder at the Courthouse, is over and the winners have been picked. I give each of your entry e-mails a number and then pick the numbers of the winners by random.org. Some of these days I’ll learn how to do that raffle copter that other writers use, but right now I’m enjoying hearing …
I met this beautiful cat in a store this week. She came out of to check out everyone shopping in the little pet supply store. Doesn’t she have beautiful eyes? This is the last post before I draw for the winners of the Celebration Giveaway for my upcoming mystery, Murder at the Courthouse. Since cozy mysteries often feature a cat …
Cats do seem to get a lot of stories told about them. Perhaps that’s because they are such unique characters. I keep trying to think up my own cat story, but I don’t think I can top all of yours. However, I have written some cats into a few mystery stories and those cats are being featured on the covers …

But then surely no self-respecting dog would do that! Not even for a Scooby Snack. Here’s a story about a beautiful, very fluffy cat and if her …
September 22, 1966 Jocie Brooke here reporting from Hollyhill, Kentucky. Do you like football? High school football? Holly County High School has a football team. We’re not big time winners or anything, but Dad says the boys try hard. I don’t think that counts on the scoreboard. Whether we score or not, we keep cheering them on. Last week they …

Remember, you can join in my giveaway fun celebrating my upcoming release, Murder at the Courthouse, by sending me a note from the contact tab. See all the info …
The cat stories are rolling in. I’m enjoying hearing all about your favorite cats and all the things they do or did to both drive you crazy and make you love them. Flora tell us about two of her cats, Mitzi and Ricky. Mitzi crossed the Rainbow Bridge at age 21 and Ricky at age 19½ so since Flora got …
September 14, 1966 Jocie Brooke here reporting from Hollyhill, Kentucky. Dad preached yesterday about David and Goliath. I’m sure you know the story. I certainly do. I’ve been hearing it ever since I can remember in Sunday school and Bible School. But I can’t remember Dad ever actually preaching a whole sermon on it. When I asked Dad about that, …
