Chapter 8, In Muldoon’s Minnesota Darling
This graphic is updated with my new cover!
The danger in Ireland didn’t compare to the danger he’d heard echoing from the nearby Big Woods of Minnesota.
Surprising research into panthers in the woods back then. It confirmed there were panthers, or cougars in Mick’s era. I confess, I enjoyed writing this scene.

My Dearest Faith
Is faith the same as compliance to rules?
Which is easier to live by? Faith or Rules? Are they separate? Are they the same? Do we need both?

Ireland’s Jewels, Part 5 of 5
They revere their Dublin Trinity College writers. You can find quite a few trinkets and their books in the library’s book store, and busts of the authors line the gorgeous library itself.
I purchased this little magnet in the book store, and took a moment to display it atop my newest shawl with a modern weave we found all around Ireland. Isn’t it cheery?
Authors, left to right: Oscar Wilde, Samuel Beckett, (a relative), Bram Stoker, and Jonathan Swift.
Ireland is proud of its literary heritage. Here’s a link for you to the college writing program.

Anxiety Riddance
Do you experience times of anxiety, or know someone who does? It’s not easy to control and is accompanied by unexpected reactions to situations which don’t make sense.
Just choosing to think differently doesn’t change things permanently. Once anxiety has worn a pathway in the brain, it defaults to it, and often with no reason.
I create memes as “wit” tools to use for armor against an attack. Name the battle’s participants, and then bam! Go on the offensive.

Quote from Mick Muldoon, Chapter 7
Another one from my novella, Muldoon’s Minnesota Darling: A Novella.
This graphic is updated with my new cover!
Mick discovers he hasn’t outrun his nemesis, Mister Death, although he is thousands of miles away from Ireland. What can he do about it?

Ireland’s Jewels Series #4 of 5
No trip to Ireland or Europe is complete without visiting the great cathedrals, in my opinion. I’ve seen many in the 16 countries on my travels. In Killarney, we self-toured St. Mary’s Cathedral after Mass (service) ended on a weekday. It awed my daughter and I, and it wasn’t our first cathedral!
In my Book 1 of my series, Mick Muldoon comments about how cathedrals make people feel small as an ant. It’s true.
St. Mary’s Cathedral
This is a remembrance for the children who died during The Great Hunger in Ireland.
Prayer candles. In my novella, Mick and his wife light candles for their unborn child during a tuberculosis epidemic.
