I’m grateful for relative good health, rewarding friendships, and circles … … Continue reading →

Release Day: The Seas of Time
About eight months ago, a group of authors tossed around the idea of tackling a series of novellas with the same setting: a centuries-old inn on the cliffs of northern California, one handed down by the same family for generations.
