Can you believe it’s the first of March??? I can’t. I’m still working on the first book in the Natchez Park Rangers series. With the first draft finished, I’m letting it percolate a bit while I work on 1. My taxes (Can you believe I waited until last week to put five months of checks into my computer???) and 2. …
The Bahamas and Other Things
The Bahamas were fabulous. The photo is of the moon setting in Nassau the first morning out. It looks like the sun, doesn’t it? The next night it was huge as it rose on the horizon and even reddish in color. My iPhone didn’t capture the red that well, but it’s still pretty! As I write this I’ve just returned …
Getting To Know You…
Hi everyone! When you read this I’ll probably be looking for a botanical garden in Nassau. 🙂 But it’s not exactly a vacation…I’m meeting with editors from Hallmark, Harlequin, and Netflix…we’ll see what God has in store… Now for last week’s Mystery Question: Below are four blotter reports. I made up one and the rest are true. Can you guess …
Crazy Blotter Reports
Just thought I’d tease you a little. 🙂 This is one of three or four buttercups (I know, everyone else calls them daffodils but I’ve always called them buttercups.) growing alongside the road where I walk. Quince is also blooming as is a cherry tree in the area. Spring cannot be far behind! Now for last week’s Mystery Question: For …
Happy February!
Hello everyone! I’m baaaaccck…sort of. Before you ask, no the book isn’t finished, but my editor gave me a reprieve and an extension! One day I’ll do a blog post on what you do when your story won’t talk to you. 🙂 I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year and you’ve thawed out from last week’s Polar Vortex! …
Happy Thanksgiving Week!
These are probably two of the prettiest trees in my neighborhood! I love the fall colors! Last week was lots of fun for me. I loved hearing from everyone and all the winners’ books are in the mail. And now I have a couple of announcements. I’m taking a few weeks off from the blog because….I’m going to Israel after Thanksgiving! …
Just How Dumb Are Criminals?
Trees are finally turning here in Corinth! This is near my church and one of the prettiest Maple trees in town. I hope you all enjoyed my little exercise last week. When I watched the explanation of the video, I could not believe that I missed, not only the gorilla but the player leaving and the curtain changing colors. I …
How Observant Are You?
This week I’m doing something a little different, but first the answer to last week’s Mystery Question: A man was wanted as a serial killer. He was arrested but after parents of a teenage victim refused to allow her to testify, he was sentenced to only seventeen months for assault. Three of the following statements are true, and one is …
Can You Guess The Incorrect Answer?
Last week was an exciting week! As I told you on Friday, I’m really excited about the grant we received to talk to kids in two counties in our area about abstinence and making healthy choices for their lives. While I won’t be doing the programs like I used to, and loved doing, by the way, I’m happy that the …
Crime Quiz
This weekend I spent time with friends and family at a family reunion. We ate and visited as we looked at old photos of those who had gone on. Then because we had some who had not seen some of the old home places, we did a “tour” of Pocahontas, Tennessee, where most of the older folks had lived at …
