June 7 is a big day, and it’s just around the corner. It’s not only my fifty-(mumble mumble)”th” birthday. It’s the release date for my new book Meet the Moms! I want to tell you all about my new book, but I digress just a moment. I love releasing new books on significant days. My […]
Matchmaking Moms Approach the Starting Gate!
Back in my December InspyRomance post I described a whole new approach for writing and releasing my new series. Instead of writing a book and releasing it, I’d write the entire series (or close to it) and then use a Rapid Release approach. Starting with my birthday June 7, I’ll be releasing one book on […]
And the Lights Went Out on Broadway …
What was the one thing that made the severity of the Coronavirus Pandemic truly hit home to you? Things are changing so quickly. Just three weeks ago I had a full weekend of plans outside the house. Then, boom! Social distancing, self-quarantine, stay at home. I remember when I heard the NCAA basketball tournament would […]
Getting It Right
You can learn a lot from reading fiction. As a reader, I love when an author paints a rich story between the covers of her book, complete with settings so well described you can picture them in your mind, back stories of the characters meted out gradually so I understand why they act the […]
2020 Is Shaping Up to Be a Productive Year! (and a giveaway)
Two years ago, I retired from the big corporate job and the hectic lifestyle that went along with it. Rewarding! Productive! Challenging! But also busy, draining, exhausting.

Shaking It Up a Bit!
What do you think of when I say Process Improvement? Be honest. Does this term make you roll your eyes, yawn, maybe even snore a little bit? Coming as I do from a professional background of insurance and project management, I’ve become familiar with my fair share of processes. I’ve documented my fair share […]
I Walk the Beach
“I listen again to the whispering waves, Music of nature calming and brave. Its power unknown, its stillness untamed, Mysterious and magical, a treasure earth claims.” Excerpt from poem Whispering Waves by Edel T. Copeland Where is your happy place? The place you feel the most peaceful, the place you dream to be when […]
A Dog’s Love (+ a Giveaway)
Do you love dogs? I know there are cat lovers out there too, but in my experience there’s really nothing that quite compares with the love of a dog! As I was growing up, my family had several dogs. My parents got Goldie when I was a baby so she and I grew up […]
Setting as Character
My very first inspirational romance was Preacher Man, published in 2009. I’d written books before, but this was the first time I recognized the nudge from God that I should be writing love stories that give all the glory to Him! It was a story about a newly divorced mom of a teenaged son, maneuvering […]
