Once again the mysteries have all been solved. Thank you so much for playing my mystery photo game and guessing right sometimes and guessing wrong sometimes. Especially that guessing wrong. LOL.

Spring 1965. Jocie Brooke here, reporting from Hollyhill. As usual nothing much is happening around here. I don’t know how my dad finds enough stuff to put in the newspaper every week. He says that’s because I don’t know what people in small towns like to read in their paper. He says people like good news and nobody wants to …
The earth laughs in flowers. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson A week or so ago, I invited you to go wildflower hunting with me and promised that we’d go again. That’s the thing with spring. It gifts us with such a variety spread out over a couple of months. Early, early I had to go walking to find the hepatica blooms that …
River to Redemption is still a Kindle Monthly Special for a few more weeks. You can grab the book right now for $1.99 for your e-reader. With the book on special, I thought this would be a good time to share bits of two different interviews my characters did last summer.
