Vacation season is gearing up. Are your bags packed? Are you more likely to be a book “traveler” this summer, taking trips simply by reading about them? That’s probably what my summer is more likely to resemble. Our house has taken quite a bit of the money I had hoped to use on a trip. […]
Truth or Fiction?
An author is supposed to write what she knows, right? At least, that’s what I’ve always heard. But, have you ever wondered how much of what an author knows is put into her story? Is the whole story made up of what she knows? Surely not! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have all those fun research stories […]
Forever
A while back, I was blessed to be able to participate in a multi-author event at my local library. It’s always awe-inspiring to find out there are more than twenty other authors in the area, especially since I had never met most of them. Makes an author feel not quite so alone–a good thing for […]
Buying Romance
The Beatles sang “Can’t buy me love.” But they also sang about how all we need is love. In today’s society, you can buy just about anything on the internet … and have it delivered. We’ve gone from having to order things through catalogs and wait for weeks and sometimes even months before they arrive […]
Welcome to Sassafras
Hello, and thanks for visiting. Have you been to Sassafras, Arkansas before? Well, it’s not terribly easy to get to. Basically, it’s only found in a few books by Amy R Anguish. But we’re fairly proud of our little town. Where exactly are we located? Well, you know. About an hour north-east-ish of Little Rock. […]
Not a Honeymoon
It was supposed to be a honeymoon … a cruise. If only Nathan hadn’t called off the wedding a month before. If only Bree hadn’t given in to their friends who convinced her to use the tickets for the nonrefundable honeymoon anyway. If only Nathan hadn’t done the same, not realizing he was being set […]
Using Bad for Books
Do you ever wonder why things happen? About fifteen years ago, my husband and I found out we had a journey ahead of us in trying to get pregnant. That was the same day he also found out there wasn’t a teaching position for him the next school year. Needless to say, the next few […]
Once Upon a Smoothie
Once upon a time … isn’t that the way all the good stories start? So, maybe it’s not the perfect beginning for mine, but it’s one of my favorites, so we’ll go with it. Five years ago this November 1st, my very first book baby was published. FIVE YEARS! And back then, I had no […]
Festive Love & Giveaway
One of the best parts of reading a novella collection is enjoying more than one story without having to grab another book. In this new collection I am part of, releasing September 27 (we’re so close!), you get all four seasons, each set in a different small town during that town’s main street festival. Today, […]
Characters of an Age
One of the “Big” birthdays is about to happen in my life. Though it doesn’t feel nearly as big as it did when I was in my twenties. Amazing how the number 40 loses its ability to scare a person the closer she draws to it. But it does have me thinking. Even though I […]
