On the Way to the Wedding: Reports from Jim — Day 5
Our road trip across the country on the way to our daughter’s wedding has begun! We’re taking the slow roads, avoiding the interstates, stopping to walk through the little towns we pass through if they catch our eye. For the next few weeks, we will be footloose and fancy free. And then we will be parents of the bride. So, please welcome my husband, Jim, to the blog. Jim is the photographer in the family, and he will be taking pictures and giving updates on the trip from his perspective.

The Ex Files is Available at Last!
A book walked into a bar and said…
ROAD TRIP
I’m heading off for a two week drive across the country this morning. It’s going to be epic (or not, judging by how some of these grand plans have gone in the past). We have a brand new digital camera that can even take 3-D images (don’t know why, you’d have to ask the dh). We have incredibly dedicated cat sitters installed in the house to take care of the 23 year old cat, who needs a lot of affection and reassurance. We’ve stocked the refrigerator a...

About a Wedding: Invitations Come in All Shapes and Sizes
Do it Yourself Wedding InvitationsI’ve been meaning to share Daughter’s budget friendly wedding invitations for a while.
One of the more expensive aspects of a wedding can come in the form of the invitation, especially if you have a reception card, a stamped RSVP card, and embossing or engraving done. We’ve all received one of those invitations that seems to have been invented by the person who invented the Russian nesting dolls (you know, the big doll opens to reveal a slightly smaller doll i...

The Ex Files Arrives July 15
So, my web guru (aka firstborn son) was supposed to put my gorgeous new cover up in the featured section yesterday. But his father spirited him away to buy a suit for his sister’s wedding instead. This is the first time he’s had a suit, ever. He’s always borrowed one of his father’s jackets to wear if he needed to be a little dressed up.
They got a great deal on a really nice gray pinstripe suit. And dinner at Pizza Hut. I love it when my guys go out and have a father-son bonding session.
Okay,...

June Wedding Blitz: Ella Ardent Likes How The Best Laid Wedding Plans Can Go Awry
I goofed! I was supposed to feature Ella Ardent on the blog last Thursday and I spaced (Note: the reason I spaced is that The Ex-Files was in the last stages of being readied to release on July 15th … see the gorgeous cover my genius cover designer Kelly Pernell did in the slideshow at the top of the page…by the end of today). So the June Wedding Blitz gets a BONUS day today, as we welcome Ella Ardent to put a little sizzle in the summer!
The Best Laid Plans…
For many of us, a wedding is probab...

June Wedding Blitz: Kaitlyn Dunnett on Hand Fasting with a Modern Twist
Please welcome Kaitlyn Dunnett to the blog this week, to wrap up our June Wedding Blitz with a tidbit of wedding history that comes from Scotland, and has a modern twist as well.
A Hand Fasted Homicide
My original title for BAGPIPES, BRIDES, AND HOMICIDES was HAND FASTED HOMICIDE. The argument against it was that readers wouldn’t know what hand fasting is. As it turns out, even people who think they understand the term have a few misconceptions.
I write humorous mysteries. Misconceptions work we...
