Six Sentence Sunday Snippet #18 – Whisky

I signed the contract this week for the second book in my Highland Talents series, Highland Seer.  So that’s where today’s snippet is from.   The Lathans have rescued old men and lads who were attacked by bandits bent on stealing their wagons loaded with kegs of whisky.  Returning the wounded MacKyries home to be […]

Thursday Thirteen – Things on my Bucket List

Ever since the movie of the same name, everyone has been fascinated by bucket lists – those things you want to do, accomplish, or become before you pass into the great beyond. Honestly, I had trouble coming up with thirteen.  I’ve done a lot of things already.  I’ve traveled the world, earned several degrees, climbed […]

This week, I spoke on a panel about writing love stories and love scenes at the Writers Guild of Texas in Austin with Tracy Wolff, Mari Mancusi, and Shawnna Perigo.  It was so much fun, I’ve decided to share a bit of a love scene here today. Enjoy my Six Sentence Sunday! He had to […]

Things are a little chaotic since the demise of #SixSentenceSunday.  Our Facebook follow-on group just changed its name to Sunday Snippets.  There’s another group called Sneak Peek Sunday that uses 8-10 sentences.  I’m going to stick with six for now and hope this all sorts itself out soon.  It would be great for all these […]

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 […]
