When it comes to romance, it sure comes with twists and turns. When I read, that’s what I’m looking for. The unexpected. I call them curveballs. When it comes to life in general, we sure endure our share. I mean, look at 2020. That’s been a huge curveball, right? I digress. I thought I’d share […]
Time to Meet the Moms! (and a giveaway)
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 […]
Inspy Romance Isolation Projects
How are you? Not the pat answer you give without thinking, but the raw answer that comes from deep within after a few weeks of drastic schedule change because of a global epidemic. Me? Overall, well. I am able to focus on the health of my family here with me and in my hometown in […]

Writing on Hard Topics + Giveaway
I write about things that are hard to read, and they’re not for everyone. With my most recent WIP (work in progress), I went in search of beta readers to check for accuracy. I wanted them to read it to make sure I represented the situation well and didn’t add too much information so as […]
A Book That Had To Be Written and #Giveaway
Heart Unbroken is one of few books that put tears in my eyes. This is a story I wanted to write for a long time but was afraid to. Then Juliette Duncan invited me to join The Potter’s House Books series (at the moment of this writing, The Homecoming by Juliette Duncan, Book 1 in this […]

What’s Your Favorite Vacation?
Do you like to travel? I used to be able to go on a trip at the drop of a hat. I loved going sightseeing, learning about the history of the place, tasting local food, taking pictures, talking to people, and overall exploring other cultures. In my younger years, I traveled to Lithuania, Germany, Poland, […]
The Future of Rainbow Falls & a #Giveaway
A couple years ago – 2014 I think – I had a regency romance come out. The title was Queen. And the funniest thing happened. When I went to Amazon and searched for “Heather Gray Queen” I did not find my book. Instead, I found a boatload of bedding. It was all queen-sized, of course. And […]
