I read more books last year than I’ve read in a long time. How many? I don’t know. I didn’t keep count. But this year that will change because I’ve taken the Goodreads Challenge. And I’ve signed up to read 100 books. Do you want to take the Goodreads Challenge? If so, it’s really easy. Just click here. Now a …

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
And here we are into the 2nd day of 2018! And I’d like to start this year off with a poll. Then next week I’ll be back with a Mystery Question!
With Apologies to Jeff Foxworthy…You Might be a writer if…
This is one of my all-time favorite posts. It first appeared on my blog in April of 2012. I came to writing rather late in life–at the age of thirty-five. That’s when these people moved into my head and wouldn’t go away until I wrote their stories. And I remember wondering when I could call myself a writer. Have you …
Happy Tuesday!
Today I’m just sharing a photo of my sister and me when I was about 8 and she was 4. Note the matching dresses in different colors. 🙂 And note she got the cowboy boots and I got saddle oxfords! And if you’d like to read about the year Santa brought the doll…here’s a link to a post I did at Suzanne …

Reader Friday – One Step Back
This week I spent time with my agent, Julie Gwinn. We talked about my research, and she thought I should share this story with you. I have a nurse on speed dial to help me with various plot complications…like how would a snake bite be treated and what would be the standard operating procedure in an ER. Those kinds of things. …
Kidnapped!
Can you believe it’s the first of December? I love Christmas time. I’ve noticed people are usually kinder and more thoughtful toward others during this season and wish it were so all year round. Now on to last week’s Mystery Question. It’s 1951 in Cleveland, Ohio, and a police officer spots a Lincoln with California tags going the wrong direction on …
Reader Friday – Ten Seconds ‘Til
A few weeks ago I mentioned I’d read a couple of novellas and would write a review the next week…well, here’s the first one, only a few weeks late. 🙂 The first story is TEN SECONDS TIL… A New MedAir Series Crime Thriller from Critically-acclaimed Author Braxton DeGarmo A serial-bombing vigilante is on the loose, and when an explosion kills three well-known …
