Love is worth the risk
Getting started on a new story—again—is never easy. I envisioned a story about Harry, the Magic Mouse for the Bluestocking Belles collection for October, Moonlight Madness. I could see my heroine seeking refuge (in a storm, of course) in a creepy house that belongs to a mysterious recluse with Harry in her pocket and no […]
…and hoping I don’t hit rocks. My to do list is a mile long and I’m on my second coffee. Two big things this week: 1. Keep Honor at Heart moving 2. Review my schedule for Book Lovers Con in Vegas and pack. Some small ones in real life, too, before I go away. Honor […]
March crept in like a lamb but it has been roaring like a lion for a week. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day, or, if your area is like mine, Happy Irish week! Parades, green everything and shenanigans. Much has been done lately and there is much to do. The final copy for Family Honor and A […]

In these shortest of days and darkest of nights, my three little trees light up at dusk. So do the timed candles in every window. Over the weekend, I filled my house with red ribbons, shiny things, and reminders of my faith. The latter are in the form of little nativity sets from around the […]
There are at least two kinds of balance. The first, basic physical balance has been a problem lately. The nice folks at physical therapy have documented quite thoroughly that mine is not what it should be. First I didn’t do well on the exercises and walking tests, then they tested my vestibular system, aka the […]
Jude Knight joins us this week with some facts behind the fiction in her novel, A Gift to the Heart. One of the iconic television series of my youth was a British espionage television series called The Avengers, staring Patrick McNee—bowler hatted, in a smart business suit, and armed with an umbrella, which he uses […]
