Well, Hurricane Barry postponed my brainstorming trip this weekend. I was supposed to meet with four great authors, Pam Hillman, Janet Ferguson, and Stephenia McGee to work out the plot of my next book, but since where we were meeting was in the middle of nowhere and the possibility of being without power was not appealing, we decided to wait …
Reader Friday ~ Unintended Witness
Unintended Witness, D. L. Wood’s won the 2019 Illumination Book Awards Gold Medal Winner for General Christian Fiction. It’s the second book in the Unintended Series and was every bit as good as the first book, Unintended Target! I reviewed that book earlier this year and you can read that review here. Here’s the back cover copy, and then my …
What Did You Say Happened?
I’m so excited that Justice Delivered has been chosen by K-Love radio as one of its 13 best Beach reads of 2019! And it’s the first one on the list!! You can read about all thirteen here.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR NATION
This was posted on the ACFW blog loop by Martha Rogers and expresses my sentiments exactly. “For the Lord your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon or destroy you or forget the covenant with your forefathers, which he confirmed to them by oath.” Deuteronomy 4:31 NIV As we began another year of campaigning, we look for …
Lying to the Police…
It’s the 4th of July week! And now I can say the year is definitely half over! Forgive my bad math a couple of weeks ago. Never was one of my strong subjects, in fact, the only “D” I ever made was in math. The sale on Justice Delivered ended Sunday night, but guess what?? The ebook of Justice Betrayed, …

Reader Friday ~ Carolina Grace
Another book I picked up last week at the KenTen writers retreat was Carolina Grace by Regina Rudd Merrick. It’s the third book in her Carolina series and takes place five years after the second book, but it’s a stand-alone, and you don’t have to read the others to know what’s going on. But I figure once you read this …
More Dumb 9-1-1 Calls
Did you know we are over halfway through the year! Where did the first six months go??? I just finished the first round of edits for the first Natchez book, Standoff and they have been accepted. Now they will go to the editor I call the Plausibility Police. She is so good. She makes sure everything in my story is …
Reader Friday ~ In Too Deep

But we did see several deer on our journey! And I got a picture of one! Then this morning I had breakfast on …
