I’me doing something a little different with this series bringing the heroines’ pov only and writing in first person point of view (I, me, my, etc). So far my early readers […]
Another Book Baby plus Excerpt and Giveaway
There’s nothing like the feeling of holding a newborn in your arms. The wonder and awe of gazing down at this new life. Writers feel pretty much the same about their book babies, and I’ve just added another to the fold, again to the Chapel Cove Romances. Having started writing Accept Me back in August […]
Co-authoring a Series in Pressured Times
Back in October, I did a cover reveal on my post, Of Babes and Book Babies, for Accept Me (Chapel Cove Romances Book 8), which I had hoped to release in December. The busyness of a new grandbaby in the house and my son and his family’s move to Cape Town, put pay to my […]

A Time to Love (and Box Set giveaway)
The Bible tells us that for everything under the sun, there is a time, but lately I feel like there’s no time for anything. Days, weeks, and months just roll into each other. Can you believe there are only 52 days left until Christmas? Time… Fleeting. Fading. Finite, and at the same time, infinite. Well, […]
The Engagement Plot – The making of and an excerpt
Y’all. This is the week. The Engagement Plot officially releases on Wednesday, November 1st. Of course, Amazon started mailing books over a week ago and even published the ebook a little early, but no matter. Wednesday is still my day of celebrating since that’s when all the other retailers will release it. (Feel free to […]
Herring Under a Fur Coat and a #Giveaway
First of all, heartfelt thanks for warm welcome! I enjoyed reading comments to my first post tremendously, and I’m grateful to every one of you. I love to eat and I love reading about food. I grew up with the tradition of family dinners and everything being made from scratch. No pancake or cake mixes […]
What kind of cover girl are you?
We all know the old English idiom, “don’t judge a book by its cover”. As true as that might be, whether or not the writer was actually talking books here, that’s exactly the first thing I judge a book by. Unless it’s the work of an author I know and love, the initial thing that […]
