(If you haven’t read last week’s blog entry, Filling The Gaps, it might be a worthwhile prologue to this one. I’ve linked this entry at the end of that so you can easily find your way back.) Our son in motion. Even though the photograph is an overall disaster, I like how he is looking… Continue Reading
My sons have played football since 2006. They are both in high school now, the oldest a junior playing wide receiver and corner for the varsity squad, and the younger getting ready to start his season on the junior high team. The high school program has been struggling for years but we are all sure… Continue Reading
Here is the cover for my soon-to-be-released historical romance novella, Little Witch. (A novella is shorter than most novels but longer than a short story. At 49,000 words, Little Witch just brushes the edge of novel-length.) This is the 5th installment in the series and it chronologically follows Vain. If you haven’t read anything in… Continue Reading
The next (last?) story in my Evolution Series of historical romances set in Charlemagne’s Empire will be released soon. Since I have a regular feature on my blog sharing first meetings, I decided to share this meeting from Little Witch: Historical Romance Novella, between the hero, Nox, and heroine, Salena. EXCERPT As Salena rounded a… Continue Reading
My next book, Little Witch, book four in my Evolution Series, is with beta-readers right now, so I’m trying to spend the time I usually spend writing preparing for its release. As last week’s blog shows, I’ve been tussling around with my log line (one line description). I’ve also been fine-tuning the blurb that you’d usually… Continue Reading
Hi all! I always ask for help on my log line as I get closer to publication because there are people in the world who are so much better at tightening up a message than me. So, with Little Witch: Historical Romance Novella starting to go out to beta readers, here is my first day’s attempt… Continue Reading
Flag Day, which officially commemorates the adoption of the US Flag on June 14, 1777, has always been a non-holiday on my calendar but in thinking about holidays and books, I realized it is a good excuse to promote my sweet historical romance, Sass Meets Class. Specifically, I am offering a discount through Smashwords so… Continue Reading
Today on First Sight Saturday, I’m sharing the first meeting from my first book! Unbidden has the most traditional hero and heroine of all my books, in my opinion. In this scene, David, a Bavarian soldier, has arrived to escort Rochelle, a woman he has never met, to an interview with the emperor. Unfortunately, her mother… Continue Reading
On First Sight Saturday, I usually feature a guest author, but this week I’m going to be my own guest and share the first meeting between Doeg and Philantha from Redeemed, the second book in my Evolution Series. If you haven’t read the series, Doeg is the villain from the first book, Unbidden. The first… Continue Reading
I’ve been working hard on a new shortish story that will fall after the last book in the Evolution Series. I say “shortish” because it will definitely surpass the 10,500 words I wrote for Second Love: A Short Historical Romance Story. The short story phenomenon is surprising to me, but I had one of my… Continue Reading
