I am working toward releasing at least three new novels this year, Swimming Lessons among them.

At Your Most Beautiful by Harper Bliss

The Memory Trap by Anthony Price

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I have just finished re-reading Price's David Audley novels in chronological sequence, an entertaining exercise. Some of his phrasing wouldn't pass a modern editor but his dense plotting and storytelling is as good as ever. One thing that do Read more of this blog post »

I don't even want to clean my own bathrooms. I'm not going to keep cleaning the old white lady's bathrooms while she sits back acting like she has more important things to do. I already quit one job over that kind of foolishness, and this one has got to go too.

At the age of five I decided I wanted to be a lawyer. Seated between my father and grandfather, I was chattering away when my grandfather said, “Puggy, you talk so much you should be a lawyer.” When I asked what lawyers did, Grandpop Johnson replied, “A lawyer is someone who helps people when they’r

Life is a gift. It's your responsibility to do the best you can with that gift each day you walk the face of the earth. Do n Read more of this blog post »
