Senior Tween
by Courtney Pierce
No one’s ever prepared for what can – and does – happen
within a seven-year stretch of life. The big wave hits all at once, like that
big ole freight train barreling toward me that I completely missed. Let’s take
just 2016 to present: Divorced, single woman at fifty-eight. Then I meet the
man of my dreams and became a new bride, a first-time mom to an eleven-year-old

My Fantasy Life at the Writers’ Police Academy
By
Linda Lovely
In this month’s blog, it was suggested we talk about
something that’s happened in our lives during the past seven years that readers
may not know about.
For me, it’s my involvement with the annual Writers’
Police Academy (WPA). This summer will mark my sixth WPA visit—my fifth as a
volunteer staffer who helps organize the event.
The WPA
offers a thrilling four-day

Balancing Fantasy and Reality
by M. L. Buchman
So, I'm a participant in a fantasy book bundle that launched just a few days ago. And before I wander off to the "reality" of my thoughts on romance that this triggered, I'll first take a moment to talk about where the thoughts came from.
The Myths and Legends Storybundle (https://storybundle.com/fantasy) is an awesome collection! Monk's Maze is one of my early books, but it's

SHE'S GONE COUNTRY!
There’s an old saying: “Hindsight is 20-20.” Looking back on my family’s
move to a fairytale-beautiful acreage in the country, I must agree that the
view from four years on is not at all what we expected.
Four years ago, Chuck and I and Son 2 and his family moved onto four acres
of woods and pasture thirty miles outside of Portland, Oregon. The property
sits on a hillside overlooking a

Preview of The Forgotten Heiress by Kristin Wallace
I'm very excited that the third book in The Heiress Games series debuts next week on Tuesday, June 5th. The Forgotten Heiress wraps up the 3-book installment, with some final reveals. I really love this book. Bailey Tenant is so fun and quirky, and Jackson Stone makes for a swoon-worthy hero.
What's it about?

Hi, I'm Pippa Jay, author of sci-fi and supernatural stories with a romantic soul. Since it's the 7th Blog-o-versary and we're blogging about things we've learned about ourselves in the past seven years, I thought I'd go one more seven and make a list of things that you may not know about me that I've discovered in those years, or at least not guess on meeting me in real life.
