With my new Hanger's Horsemen series, I've enjoyed having covers that prominently feature heroes on the covers. The Heart's Charge is coming this summer, and there are TWO heroes in play. Double the fun! It's been nice to switch things up with my covers this time around. One of the reasons I enjoy historicals so much is the fairy-tale feel of the period costumes, especially the dresses worn by … [Read more...]
Going Gray
I’ve always dreaded gray hair. Maybe that’s because my hairdresser found several gray strands on my head before I graduated from high school! From my late teens through my early 40s, I waged war against going gray, first with drug store color, then with highlights and lowlights. But somewhere in my mid-40s I made peace with gray hair. Not that I wanted it then, mind you. I was just okay with it … [Read more...]

Tapping Into My Inner Math Genius
I was once the girl who couldn't memorize multiplication tables (and to this day numbers do not stick in my head). I was once the girl who fell so far behind in 5th grade math that her teacher asked her to sit in the hallway filling out worksheets while she taught the other kids the math unit in the classroom. I was once the girl who failed math in middle school. I was once the girl who passed … [Read more...]

Comparison Trap
Hi friends, Happy to be back with you this week! Today I’m talking about an area that I’ve struggled with over the years and maybe you have too. As writers it's so easy to fall into the comparison trap. I’m a sloooowww writer, and I have writer friends who can write a book in six weeks. Six weeks! It takes me that long just to get about a fourth of my raw draft done. And, when I say raw, I mean … [Read more...]

Trippin’ again!
As some of you will remember, my husband, Ken, talked me into trying out the RV life. He won me over in our red Travato camper van and we were just about ready to head out on our second weeks-long trip when the pandemic hit a year ago. When we realized it was going to be a very long time before we could travel again, we sold our camper van. We've done some traveling, staying in Airbnbs, which … [Read more...]

Editing Until Your Brain Hurts!
Lately I’ve been in editing mode. I just completed rewrites on Never Leave Me, the second Waters of Time book, releasing early next year. (The first book in the series, Come Back to Me, releases in just a few months!) After turning it in, I jumped into a line edit for my second Colorado Cowboys book, The Heart of a Cowboy, releasing in October of this year (which, by the way, you can … [Read more...]
