I saw a series of book covers and this world just appeared in my head.

The thing that seems to speak to me are book covers. I peruse pre-mades and twice now I've seen a cover and stories just bloom in my head.

I'm starting a new series called the Sock Shoppe Mysteries, set on the coast of Virginia. I'm excited about it.

Write! Don't let fear stop you. The first thing you write may be terrible, but you can fix that. There are so many free resources on the internet to help with editing and marketing, etc. But you have to start by putting words down. Sometimes when I'm writing a book, I get to a part that sucks and I know it, but I push through to get to the next good part. I know it will need to be fixed later but at least I moved forward.

I step away and learn more about writing, whether it's marketing or craft. I also read books and watch Netflix. It's been a struggle during the pandemic, but we haven't been touched by it, thank goodness.

I would love to visit the Tri-Cities from Patricia Briggs Mercy Thompson Hauptmann series and find me a werewolf like Adam. Otherwise, I'd have to visit either Regency or Victorian England to hang with my favorite characters, and there are so many. I sure wouldn't like living in Seven Dials or Whitechapel though, so I guess I'd have to find a progressive Earl, Marquess, or Duke, so I could investigate murders.
