Celebrating Two Years! DRAGON KNIGHT’S SWORD!

Wow! Has it really been two years since my first book, Dragon Knight’s Sword was released into the world? Duncan MacKay and Brigid O’Neill stormed into the world and for the rest of the year topped charts and found a following of loyal readers. I’m still in awe and stunned by the outpouring of love and support for all the Dragon Knights!

I love a good party, so I’ve decided to mark this month as a celebration–a party for everyone. Each week, I’m featuring one of my books. I’ll share some sec...

Mary’s Tavern Recipes ~ Peaches and Berries Crisp

Brunch at the Morgans

Welcome to my tavern! Did you know that Beltaine (May 1st) marked the start of the Celtic season of summer? It sure feels like it here in my town, so I’m delighted to share a dish that’s full of the fruits of summer. Now, don’t bash me for saying it’s summer, when it’s only late spring. Of course, there are still some places dealing with chilly weather conditions, too. Yet, for now…let’s pretend.

As you can see in the picture, my husband and I spend most of our time eat...
