Road Trip in a Nutshell
A couple weeks ago, we did a one-week about 3,000 mile RV road trip through Oregon, California, Nevada, and Arizona. I was looking forward to visiting Sedona for the first time, and it did not disappoint.
We took a Vortex tour, had lunch downtown, and saw so many gorgeous views. Flagstaff was a wonderful shady place to camp, and our busy day of driving Route 66 to see the Petrified Forest, Jack Rabbit Trading Post, corner in Winslow, Arizona, and Meteor Crater was great fun!
But the dr...

Road Trip – Day One
Last week, my hubby and I, along with my sister and her hubby took a road trip in our RV. This is the longest trip the RV has been on since we’ve owned it, and boy, howdy was it an adventure!!
We got a bit of a late start on Tuesday, eventually stopping for lunch at Sidelines Pizza in Kalamath Falls (with cute blue owl fire hydrants!) It was hot, and they had nice air-conditioning and good pizza. On the way, we saw 3 bald eagles–one adult and two youngsters–perched on telephone poles near...

NURSERY CRIMES is Out Now!
This is the city of Las Fables. I work here. I’m Detective Peter Peter. I put ‘em in the pumpkin shell.
Las Fables is a land of fairy tales and rhymes. Sure, it used to be made of sugar and spice, but Mother Goose flew the coop and hasn’t been seen in years. Darkness has settled over the town, whiffling and galumphing down the yellow brick lanes.
When the Seven Dwarves are gunned down in the Old Woman’s Shoe Bar, Detective Peter Peter and his partner Jack Horner are on the case. No...

New Goal–More Fiction!
A couple years ago, I started a YouTube channel (Devon Monk’s Works and Worlds). The goal was to post weekly video updates, read bits of writing, show off knitting, and generally be my goofy self for one full year.
I’m happy to say I met that challenge and posted a video a week for a year straight! I’m still going strong, albeit with a skipped week here and there when Life is determined to be Difficult.
But now I’m trying a NEW challenge! The new goal is to post weekly fiction, behind t...
