Excerpt of Stuck In Oz

  When Jeremy and Petey’s mother died, their house was taken to pay the debts she left behind, leaving them homeless. Afraid Petey will be put in foster care, they have no one to turn to but their Uncle Milt, so they pack up Jeremy’s beat-up car and leave San Diego for Wamego, Kansas. They arrive in the middle of a snowstorm and stop at the local diner to contact their uncle, where they meet Nate. Nate and his aunt help them contact Uncle Milt, and he agrees to help. Jeremy and Nate hit it off quickly, but Jeremy runs … Continued

First Love

Hello all.  Thank you for visiting my blog today.  I hope you all have a wonderful Easter morning.  I’m currently away from home at Rainbowcon and Dominic is at home, spending the day with my family.  I was very lucky in that Dominic was my first true love and we’ve been together now for over twenty years.  So he’s what I’m thankful for and truly blessed with on this Easter Day. I am participating in the Rainbow Gold Reviews Blog Hop. http://rainbowgoldreviews.wordpress.c...

A Courageous Ride – Great Reviews

      My recent release A Courageous Ride has been betting amazing reviews.  I’m so thrilled that readers and reviewers are enjoying the story.    There is nothing better than when a reader loves a book.  I hope you’ll take a look at the story and if you choose to read it, I hope you love it.   5 Stars from Multitaskingmama – There are two things here that I really liked about this story: the ability of the author to express Marshall’s feelings for Indigo into music and the solid relationship between the two men despite their short time … Continued

My Garden

Over the years one of the things I have done at each house Dominic and I have owned is garden.  At the house we currently have, there is a side garden tucked between two retaining walls.  When we moved in, I designed the layout of the plants, cleared the entire space, and planted all of the shrubs, perennials and even added statuary and a fountain. That was only the beginning.  Dominic and I spent many weekends cutting out overgrown shrubs, small trees, overgrown bushes.  Then we replanted the front yard and finally the back.  For the three years it took … Continued

Excerpt of A Courageous Ride

A Courageous Ride Releases at midnight the morning of March 31 and I thought I would provide you all a sneak peek excerpt.   Aspiring orchestra conductor Marshall is exhausted after months of auditions without a single job offer. Marshall’s friend, Terry, recommends a change of scenery and points Marshall in the direction of a dude ranch run by former bull rider Indigo Santana. Marshall is understandably skeptical, but his friend is convincing, and Marshall needs a break, so he agrees to go. Indigo captures Marshall’s attention but leaves him confused. Indigo’s confidence is shot after an injury ended his … Continued

A Courageous Ride Releasing March 31

A Courageous Ride is releasing March 31 and I am already getting a wonderful response from the early reviews.  Both Sid Love and Mrs. Condit and Friends have given it wonderful reviews. With this story, I decided I wanted to create two different characters form two different worlds, throw them together and see what happened.  What I got was a story that really spoke to me about the power of love and deciding what was truly important.  I also got to explore the therapeutic aspects of love and healing on many levels.   Aspiring orchestra conductor Marshall is exhausted after months of … Continued

BA Tortuga Stops By to Talk About The Terms of Release

  Coming Out and Going Home Hey, y’all! How goes it? First and foremost, I want to thank Andrew for hosting me on his blog. He is one of my favorite people on earth and I love him more than I love my luggage (trust me, it’s a compliment – I have purple luggage with green olives. I adore it). I was sitting and pondering life how much mine has changed in the last few years. I’ve moved. We’ve lost Julia’s dad. I came out of the closet. We have our first grandnephew, my baby-iest sister got married. J and … Continued

The Story Behind Love Comes Home

Love Comes Home started when sports reporters were talking about baseball.  I rarely listen to baseball, but I was on an extended trip and had NPR on the car’s satellite radio.  Of course NPR has a sports reporter who was doing a color story around baseball.  But being NPR, he chose something different.  That was the day I heard about Beepball for the first time.  They were at a game and mostly it sounded like any other baseball game, coaches giving instruction, parents yelling encouragement.  Then it got silent and all that came through was a moving beeping sound.  As … Continued
