Welcome to the first of the posts in which I tell about locations in my stories.
Inspirations for locations just come to me because they fit the story line so well; there is no attempt to promote a location. Nonetheless, when an inspiration comes, it is a nice challenge to bring locations to life as Read more of this blog post »

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Jane Austen is one of those authors I'm aware I've never read. I've been tempted to try her books for a while, especially since there are so many good adaptations to watch afterwards. I was finally convinced by all the comparisons of life in lockdown to life in an Austen novel (a turn about the room

'The case is without a parallel . . .'
Nobody covered my great-grandmother's murder more thoroughly — and with more emotion — than reporter Peter Young, whose Mishawaka Department column often filled much of a page in the evening South Bend Daily Times.

Now that summer has unofficially, officially started, time to think about what you'd like to read at the beach or by the pool. Paranormal romance is always a great choice. I have a new, sweet novella coming out on July 1, called Praline Dreams. It's perfect for relaxing in the sun.

Comments on books I prefer to read
My inability to drop into a book probably comes from my writing. I try to do three things in the opening of a book; first and foremost endear the reader to the main character, second I try to immediately (as as I can) set the conflict of the story so reader knows, "oh this is what I'm going to get,"

After 32 years of marriage I’m pretty skeptical of monogamy, but maybe that’s because I tried it and it didn’t work.

, won rave reviews and multiple literary prizes upon its release in 2007. Since then, her books have tended to haunt the bestseller lists, on both sides of the pond, and for months at a time. British newspaper The Independent has dubbed French "The First Lady of Irish Crime," and The Washington Post says she is the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past ten years. ...more
