A WINTER PICKLE
As winter draws ever closer in the Ozark Mountains and the sky stays gray for days, I turn to the light any way I can get it. Cozy lamps, a scented candle, flames in the fireplace. All of the above.

And you think you're having a bad hair day?
I need an escape from reality these days, so I'm hunting fact and fashion in the 1920s, as I plot and plan for Ouija and Haints and the husbands who don't make it our of their marriages alive. Join me?

Back in my writing hideaway

All Hail the Kiss!
As giddy and grossed out as we felt with that first game of Spin the Bottle, we were participating in a ritual -- the kiss -- that some scholars claim is more the 4,500 years old. Here are some kiss facts you might not know!

Abracadabra and Open Sesame!
It feels like a magic endeavor. A rabbit out the hat. I put on my writer hat and spend nearly a year at the keyboard penning the tale. And then I put on my publisher hat and manage 5 MILLION TRILLION details.

Left you Hanging!
Since we gossiped last, I've gone down the rabbit hole in my writing studio for eight solid months, traveled down memory lane in Ireland, put together 80,000 pretty gosh-darn good words of a story, and emerged on the other side relatively sober and sane.

Go Explore Summer!
Wherever you live, take a walk through the gardens in full bloom, paddle a river a lake or a pond, camp, fish, have fun!
That's what I'm doing when I'm not writing on Killer Croquet on the Emerald Isle, book 4 in the Cardboard Cottage Mystery series.

Happy Dragon Year!
The year 2024 is the year of the Dragon! It's a time for creativity and new ideas. Don't let it all go to your head like Smaug, though. Stay down-to-earth and avoid being arrogant or greedy. If you're looking at your wallet, prosperity could be on its way.
