I’m so very pleased to announce the sale of my first romantic suspense to Kensington Publishing Corp. This book is near and dear to my heart for many reasons. First, it takes place in a city I love: I spent my most formative years in Charleston, with its glorious church steeples, cobblestone streets, majestic [...]
It’s been so heartening to hear from readers who have put The MacKinnon’s Bride on their keeper shelf. Thank you for taking these characters into your hearts and for the kind words. As e-readers take the book world by storm, one of the questions I’ve been asked is, “Will you re-release the MacKinnon’s Bride” books. [...]
You really have to be in love with every story you write. As with any love affair, if you’re just phoning it in, readers can tell. OK, so I can’t say I’ve loved every single word I’ve written (I think every writer has a love/hate relationship with their own prose), but I can honestly say [...]
Read more →This morning I rolled out of bed to find a dusting of snow on the ground and a sky full of flurries. Finally, it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas …
As we count down (8 days!), I find myself with a little quiet time to reflect. Those who know me best know I [...]
Read more →You know those people who seem able to do everything? Come on … you know the ones – they manage a full time job, motherhood, social life and, amazingly, they miraculously spit out a blockbuster every two years while running marathons in their spare time. Well, let me assure you, I’m not one of them. [...]
Read more →Memorial Day was my dad’s favorite holiday. But he never said so — at least not with words. It was the one time of the year you could count on lighting the grill, rain or shine. But I’m not sure he considered it “his” holiday, despite the fact that he’d served in Vietnam. [...]
Read more →I’m really excited to be working on a new series of books that takes place in Charleston, SC.
The details have to stay under wraps, but I’m looking for someone who knows the ins and outs of the Charleston police department. It’s not a tell-all! So no worries there. If you contribute, you’ll get a [...]
Read more →Spoiler Alert: This is a very candid spewing of words here; rare for me, but part of my New Year’s resolution is simply this: to take down the emotional fortress, one brick at a time.
It’s been a very tough 10 years in some ways, and in other ways, it’s been the best decade of [...]
Read more →Who hasn’t seen Harry Potter by now? Spoiler alert! Don’t read this until you’ve seen the movie.
I have to confess, I am a belated fan, and I haven’t read the books, despite that the series snagged my writer and film-studies-major daughter’s commendation. I watched with interest up until The Prisoner of Azkaban, and then [...]
Read more →OK, so I’m working on it, but, like too many, I seem to bite off more than I can chew … or maybe not so much more than I can chew, but it just keeps other projects at the nonworking end of the writing production line. Still, this article was fun and; so I’m sharing. [...]
