What’s on Your Holiday List?
I’ve got more books, to read, for sure, but right now my mind’s on holiday cookies. Specifically, these:
Double Chocolate Cranberry Biscotti
1 3/4 cups flour
3/4 c sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp instant coffee powder (to intensify chocolate taste. For mocha, bump up to 1 T)
1 stick butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 c semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 c dried cranberries
Preheat oven to 350 and lightly grease cookie sheet. Cream butter and sugar, whip in eggs one at a time, scraping the bowl between. Beat in vanilla. Whisk dry ingredients together and stir into the egg mixture, adding the chips and cranberries last. Dust a work surface with flour and turn out the dough. Flour your hands and shape into a ball. Cut in two pieces and shape each into a log, flattening until it’s about 3/4″ high and 2-3″ wide; leave space between for the dough to spread. Bake for 35 minutes, until firm. Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes and remove to cutting board with 2 spatulas. Slice diagonally into 3/4″ pieces and lay each on its side on the cookie sheet (touching is OK). Return to the oven for 10 minutes. Cool on the sheet for a few minutes, then remove to a wire rack. Optional garnishes: a dusting of powdered sugar, a drizzle of melted white chocolate, a dip into melted chocolate. Store in an airtight tin.
Happy Holidays!

Konstantinos would be proud.
I’m over the moon about this unpaid review I just got for Helios from Writer’s Digest:
“Holiday managed to walk the line of a Harlequin romance while offering bits of a third wave feminism into the mix – it would make for a fascinating literary study. The writing is crisp, fun to read, and perfectly crafted toward the ideal audience of this type of book. It fits the one-sitting read that many romances hang their hats upon, and offers that transportive, foreign fling that can whisk readers into another world. Also – can’t forget this – how deliciously scandalous!”–Writer’s Digest
Happy Holidays to all!

Two More Days!
One lonely woman, two injured warriors, two days to release!
Wounded warriors are a Thing for many of us, I think. It’s that combination of toughness and vulnerability that appeals, and perhaps the need to take care of someone? And Hope is a healer…

T Minus three!
I love animals and dogs in particular, as readers of my previous stories might have guessed. Nonetheless, I was worried that AB&HD might be “too doggy” for people, and I’m thrilled to see that early readers LOVE Mojo, and in fact, some wanted to see even more from him! Mojo now joins a long line of Dogs in Fiction, from Lassie to Old Yeller to 101 Dalmatians. Yay for all dogs, whether fictional or real.

T Minus Four!
Four days to release for A Boy and his Dog!
Is it rain on a steamy window? Or … something else? Read to find out–only four days to release (currently available “wide” in paperback and audiobook). I can’t wait to share it!
