Love is worth the risk
This week I have reading to do. When my friends and I (aka The Bluestocking Belles) prepare a collection we work at intertwined stories. While each of us writes her own story with its own hero and heroine’s journey, our characters always meet up at at least one shared event and often wander in and […]
The sun is so bright today I would almost think it was spring if more ice and snow weren’t forecasted for later this week. I am more or less on schedule for this month! I finished my promo tour for Snowed by the Wallflower on Friday–weary and suspecting at least some readers were tired of […]
Too much, too fast! I didn’t expect baby steps to lead to zooming quite so fast. The big issue is all the promotion needed for a new book. There is no point in writing them, if no one reads them, right? I’ve been on three web blogs and more Facebook groups that I care to […]
Highlighting Historical Romance with Saralee Etter who gives us some of the facts behind one of the stories in A Legend to Love If I were going to invite a guest from any time in history to dine with me, my choice would be Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, also known as the Prince de Talleyrand, the […]
I’ve been gone for a while with my nose stuck to the grindstone. You’ll be pleased to know that it type “THE END” on The Upright Son a week ago and entrusted it to the mercies of beta readers. Once I get it back (hopefully by the end of the week) I will have three […]
I travel. Sometimes I travel by boat, plane, or automobile. Sometimes I travel by book. Sometimes I explore the real world. This week I rambled to a small estate and textile mills in and around Glasgow and then on to London and the stifling townhouse of the vile Duke of Auchen with my fellow bluestocking, […]
Good news, friends. My efforts last week paid off. The water, which is to say my creativity, appears to be flowing again. Sometimes it is dancing waters. Sometimes just a steady flow, but it is moving. I made great progress on The Upright Son, although I confess to you that I notified the publisher that […]
As I continue to work away bit by bit on The Ashmead Heirs, Book 4, The Upright Son, suddenly Book 3, The Forgotten Daughter is about to launch. It will be released into the wild on Thursday, January 27. If you haven’t ordered a copy you still have three days to buy it for 99 […]
The morning after a storm pounded the south and east, and the urban wilds of Eastern Pennsylvania (and New Jersey) awoke to steady rain that has washed away last evenings snow. Alas snow flurries have returned but they don’t amount to much. I’ll take it! Progress was made on The Upright Son last week, but […]
Busy week! Since I saw you last (so to speak) I planted flowers, hauled beloved to Home Depot (twice), weeded two beds, repotted an orchid, weed-whacked the back yard, and cleaned the clutter that accumulates when a husband is left to his own devices for three weeks. I also gave The Defiant Daughter her very […]
