Some of you know this part of my story. For those who don’t, I’ll briefly summarize. If you don’t want to hear this behind-the-scenes look at the situation, feel free to skip down and start reading Chapter 1 of The Dance (very soon to be re-released…by me). My first 13 novels, were traditionally published. The first book released in 2009, …
Featured on Another Podcast
I WAS ON ANOTHER PODCAST this week – This time it was A Writer’s Day Podcast with host Ruth Douthitt. We had a great chat about book stuff, things I’ve learned along the way.

Instead, the citizens of this fine town have demonstrated an amazing measure of restraint …
A Taste of Perfect Peace
I’m working on something a little different in my writing life these days. I’m still writing my next novel (a love triangle of sorts between a female inmate, an Afghan war amputee, and a shelter dog named Finley), but I’ve also been working on something else.
