In The Groove
That’s what June feels like so far, and that’s the best in my world. A solid work week for me is a treat, so the weekend really is the carrot at the end of another carrot. Right now, I’m back in Eve and Roarke world, and that’s always fun. So I spent the week catching … Continue reading In The Groove →

The Good Life
For me, that’s a solid, uninterrupted writing week followed by a pretty weekend in the garden. All my stars aligned, and it feels like it’s been awhile since they have. That makes it all the sweeter. Since it somehow decided to be June, and June’s pretty busy, I’ll take the pretty perfect last week of … Continue reading The Good Life →

Golden in Death cover and stuff
Hello blog family! I think it’s pretty safe to say this year hasn’t followed the traditional path so far. As you’ve seen over the years, routine – in her work days, workouts, spa trips and vacations – is sacred to Nora. As the calendar turned to 2019 both of us assumed the posts during the … Continue reading Golden in Death cover and stuff →

Weekends
I’ve had the good, the best and the ugly recently. The ugly I spent knocked out with a really nasty bout of vertigo. As anyone who’s dealt with it knows, vertigo sucks hard. But that’s done now. The next, the best, I had a weekend of baking, gardening, family dinner, and Griffin! Our boy is … Continue reading Weekends →

Win, Place, Show
The first Saturday in May always manages to sneak up on me. I mostly avoided that this year by taking the Sunday before to figure out all the clothes, shoes, bags for three fun-filled days in Louisville. This must become habit as I avoided all the last-minute insanity and could just plunk everything in a … Continue reading Win, Place, Show →

Ups and Downs
My life right now seems to be a series of them without much of that steady middle ground. I really like steady middle ground. Updated total: 41 authors and 93 of their books infringed by Serruya. She’s a blood leech sucking on the body of the writing profession. Arranging for a truckload of salt to … Continue reading Ups and Downs →

Readers are Amazing
Current plagiarism update: 86 books/36 writers This is a very long slog on many fronts. There are days since all this started it feels as if we’re battling Hydra. Slash at one head, more pop up.

Here’s How I work
Before I start, the latest count from the plagiarism mess is 85 books and 36 authors. So, some of the fallout from this clusterfuck seems to have generated a lot of questions, speculations, idiotic statements (as if fact) and–to me–strange arguments about my writing process, my output, and my honesty.
