March!

Mystery Ink: A Novel Way To Die What’s the color of passion?

March!

If I say “March” does your mind go immediately to the calendar month when winter fades away and green of spring appears young and tender with the promise warmer weather?

Or does “March” conjure images of soldiers in formation, boots thudding against the parade ground in unison to the “Hup, two, three, four. Pick’em up, two, three, four.”

The month of March sort of snuck up on me, and I’m falling into formation and marching through the month March.

Here’s what’s going on

Bayou Born

1) Bayou Born is on sale (still, I’m told because Amazon can be stubborn.) and that’s a good thing for your wallet because it’s only 99¢. http://amzn.com/B00B9L1VAC
