Friday Ramblings From An Author-August Winds Down
Did everyone catch the solar eclipse the other day? Where I live a storm was on the verge of passing through so I didn’t get to experience it as much as I’d hoped. August is slowly winding down and so is summer. Today I noticed leaves on some trees beginning to turn. I’ve added my…

Friday Ramblings From An Author-Summer’s Going too Fast
It’s been raining every day…not that I mind but it’s reminded me that summer is going too fast. It’s the first year I haven’t taken a break from teaching and I’m feeling like I’ll need some sort of break to recharge my writing batteries before fall arrives. Anyone else ever feel like they just…

Friday Ramblings From An Author-Back to Mysteries
It’s August which means I have to stick to my goal of getting back to mystery writing. I thought about starting a new one but have three half finished ones sitting on my computer. It won’t be the first time I’ve gone back to writing stories I started…let’s just say longer than I care…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Dreaming of Hawaii and New Zealand
It’s felt like summer (high heat and humidity) this last week or so and I can’t believe we’re at the half way point. And no, I still haven’t gotten around to my summer reading list yet. I have been reading but not books from my list. For some reason…maybe I’m itching to do some traveling, but…
