I’ve been having fun with this picture on my Facebook Author’s page. I had posted a picture of Darrell and me on his birthday last week and mentioned how long we’d been together. A loooonnng time. We met and started dating when I was fourteen and he was seventeen. My parents trusted me too much, I’m thinking now. But it …
I have absolutely no reason for this picture other than I wanted to use a picture and we’ve had blue skies this week. This is a hayfield on our farm and a place I sometimes walk. I’d like to walk around it now because there’s a nice patch of raspberries in the fencerow, but my husband hasn’t mowed the hay …
I tried to post this on my Facebook author page today, but Facebook is not liking me lately. So I said whatever, I’ll just share it with my journaling friends. Okay, take a good look at the picture to the left. Then scroll down and take a good look at my cover. The first picture here on the left is …
Books are arriving in the mail and by UPS. That’s always fun. And it’s just as much fun when I hear from family and friends that they received my new book in the mail. Several people got gift copies of The Blessed yesterday in the mail. Other family members may get a surprise in the mail next week. It’s fun to get nice …
Art Piece at the Mercer Co. Library Last week I was privileged to be invited to join the Lunch Bunch Book Club at the Mercer County Library after they read my book, Angel Sister. Getting together with book clubs either in person or via phone is one of the most fun things I do as a writer. I like to talk …
Suzanne Woods Fisher with one of her beautiful labs Today I have a special guest on One Writer’s Journal. This is the first time I’ve had a writer guest, but maybe not the last time if I can make connections with some other writers about what they do besides write. Suzanne Woods Fisher is a bestselling novelist with a wonderful …
L to R – Virginia Smith, me, Annie Jones, Laura Resnick The Clear Creek Writers’ Workshop was lots of fun last Saturday. The writers’ group held it in a historic home in Shelbyville that added to the atmosphere of books and talk. The best part of the day, of course, was meeting new writing friends. Here I am in the line-up …
It’s not a great picture, but here I am with my cockerspaniel, Jody. He was a registered dog and to fancy up his name a little I called him Honeysuckle Jody. The picture is old and I’ve definitely got a windblown look, but Jody’s curly ears are lying down nicely. This was taken twenty-five or so years ago. I was needing some – or at least I …
L to R: Paula Benson, Margaret Maron, me, Tatjani Soli Some weekends are just more fun than other weekends. Last weekend was one of those fun kind for me. First I was in Columbia at the SC Book Festival which is one of the most writer friendly festivals I’ve had the pleasure of being invited to attend. This is my second …
Here’s the cover I promised to post Sunday about the book of dog stories, The Dog Next Door. I know. It’s Monday and not Sunday. But I was at my daughter’s house last night and didn’t have time to get on the computer. And I was too busy enjoying all the writers and books at the S.C. Book Festival this …
