I’m celebrating the arrival of my author’s copies of Field of Danger. It’s always like Christmas opening a box of new books, hot off the press. I’ve set aside about half to send out to influencers – those folks willing to read the book and blog about it, or share it with friends, etc. So [...]

Another Friday, another excerpt from Field of Danger. The excerpts will be short, but I hope they will be enjoyable tidbits. With each, I’ll also post a tidbit about the book itself and how I came to write it.
The book is set in Caralinda, Tennessee, in the fictional Bell County where Ray Taylor is sheriff [...]

Another long absence, but I’ve not been idle. Just lots of deadlines and personal complications. I’ve spent a lot of time in Alabama with my mom, and it looks as if the next few weeks will see more of that – deadlines and travel to Alabama. But I am going to try something a little [...]

In 1984, my father retired, and my husband and I gave him a gift he’d always wanted but never had the time to nurture. A white German shepherd. With no explanation, Daddy named her Polly (picture here).

Polly has been gone for awhile, but now she has a new role. In my December book, Field of [...]

Thanks to everyone who offered up suggestions for casting my next hero. I REALLY appreciate the help. Later this week, we’ll be casting the heroine, June, so stay tuned.
I have to admit I was a little blown away by how many people (here and via email) pitched Jeffrey Donovan. I had no idea Burn Notice [...]

Ray Taylor, former Marine and Memphis PD detective, is the sheriff of Tennessee’s rural (and fictional) Bell County. He’s a secondary character in my December book, Field of Danger—one who tried desperately to take over the tale. Obviously, he needed his own story.
Which he gets in a proposal I’m sending to Steeple Hill, working title [...]

Many Thanks…and on to the next show…

The last few days have been mentally rough – lots of soul searching, praying, and decisions to make. My ego also got a bit out of control and had to be yanked back into line. The backstory would be boring, mostly, but I can’t say thanks enough to the folks who’ve sent good thoughts and [...]

OK…I’m pushing on to the end of FIELD OF DANGER. Too much to do to think about much else. Plus I still need to finish my Rita and Golden Heart entries. Everything always seems to come due at once, but that’s life. And it’s a GOOD thing, I remind myself, because it means the writing [...]
