Thursday Thirteen – Valentine’s Day Love It or Leave It?

Doesn’t it seem like Valentine’s Day was created by Hallmark to sell cards?  That’s actually not the case – celebrating St. Valentine’s day goes back hundreds of years, originally a religious observance. Nowadays, it’s all about romance – but all too often in a very commercial way.  So here are my thirteen reasons why Valentine’s […]

I Survived My First Book Signing!

The San Antonio Romance Author had a group book signing today.  SARAs Sasha Summers, Lisa Pietsch, Gina L. Maxwell, Tara West, Patricia W. Fischer and Sophie Greyson and I braved the rainy, foggy San Antonio weather and had a lot of fun (and chocolate!) despite the lack of crowds. Here I am before we started.   […]

Thursday Thirteen – Things Every Writer Should Know – I Learned the Hard Way

When I was young, I would listen to the Beatles’ Paperback Writer and dream of someday having a published book of my own.  Or several. Fast forward to present day and guess what!  I have a published book of my own!  In all the years in between that early musical inspiration and the day I […]

Imagine That!

Imagine That!

I first posted this on RomCon a few weeks ago (minus my pictures), but decided it was worth repeating here. In Highland Healer, I took advantage of the dearth of recorded history of the 16th century Scottish highlands to imagine what might happen to the clans devastated by the deaths of their lairds and King […]

Now that the official Six Sentence Sunday is over, I’ve decided to continue on my own, or until I find a group resuming it.  I’m starting with the opening sentences of my debut book, Highland Healer. Enjoy my first solo Six Sentence Sunday! They brought the man into the tent on a makeshift stretcher, bound […]

Thursday Thirteen – Favorite Authors

It’s hard to cut a list of recent favorite authors down to just thirteen, but I’m giving it a go.  These are not in any particular order, nor are they all strictly romance authors, but their books all have romantic elements in them.  Some are long-established, multi-published authors and some are, like me, brand-spankin’ new […]

Six Sentence Sunday #12 – The Last Official #SixSunday

It’s hard to believe, but this is the last official Six Sentence Sunday.  January 27th. I’m sorry to see it go.  I know you are, too.  It’s been a wonderful way to get a glimpse of so many talented authors’ work. Should I continue here – just for my readers?  What do you think? In honor […]
