Maggie Monroe Callie “Perhaps one reason we are fascinated by cats is because such a small animal can contain so much independence, dignity, and freedom of spirit. Unlike the dog, the cat’s personality is never bet on a human’s. He demands acceptance on his own terms.” – Lloyd Alexander Back when I was writing my third Hidden Springs mystery, Murder …
“Write what you know.” That is advice many writers, especially new writers, hear. Some say it’s good advice. Some say it’s terrible advice. True, if I only wrote what I had experienced personally, I’d have very limited story ideas. Writing what I know would have all my stories about a small town country girl who loves dogs and kids and …
Some of you have enjoyed my Hidden springs Mysteries. Others of you may not know I wrote a few cozy mysteries under the author name, A.H. Gabhart. Of course, if you read through my writing journey a few weeks ago, you’ll know that I have always loved reading mysteries and once, when I was in rejection valley, daring to set …
And happily, in addition to that little bit of sinister, there are cats in Hidden Springs! Specifically Two Bits, Grimalkin, and Miss Marble to help save the day at just the right moments in the stories.

No object is mysterious. The mystery is your eye. ~Elizabeth Bowen My new book, In the Shadow of the River, came out on May 9th. Some of you even got the book before that date as a few flew out to readers early. Always fun to have a new story out on the shelves to sell and in the hands of people …
Several years ago I did an online Q & A about Animals and Authors. That was before my previous dog, Oscar, died of bone cancer way before I was ready to say goodbye. I hope you like this journey back in time to when Oscar was my best dog and always ready to support my writing efforts. 🙂 Quid Pro …
There are some places you can’t visit anymore, poetry and writings take you there. ~Vaishal sheth I guess I got too sneaky on my last random line. Nobody knew or guessed which book I grabbed it at random. Well, sort of random. I do look for a line that speaks a little of the story. I guess this one didn’t …
I’ve written a lot of books and seen many of them published and sent out into the world of readers. Each new story has a way of sort of pushing the last story a little to the side and the story ten books ago toward the second shelf of memory. I did a Zoom meeting with a fun book club …
The almost surprised look that death had frozen on his face didn’t matter now. What mattered was why the man was there on the Hidden Springs Courthouse steps where folks didn’t get murdered. At least never until tod ay. (From Murder at the Courthouse) Only two more mystery photos for this Mystery Photo Game including the one here. That’s probaby …
