After the Crash Timeline

Have you ever wondered which story takes place when? Do they overlap? Well, even I get confused so I made this nifty little chart to help me keep track. This is actually a simplified version of the one I use. (Mine has actual events listed, but I don’t want to give possible spoilers for those […]

Wolf Tracker Audiobook!

Do you enjoy listening to audiobooks while you drive, clean, knit, etc? Why not try Wolf Tracker? An author, like a parent, shouldn’t have favorites, but I have to say, Tracker and Tami have a big part of my heart. I love, love, love Tracker! And Tami is strong enough to be perfect for him. […]

Tuesday Teaser 10/29/13-Wolf’s Vengeance

Duffy Brown had hosted a guided shopping trip for us, and when I opened my wallet to pull out my debit card so I could buy a cute little Coach purse, the […]
