Farewell 2017

December 27, 2017 By Robin Lee Hatcher

Yes, it is true. We are counting down the days until the end of 2017. Don’t ask me how it got here so fast. I thought I would use this post to share two highlights from my 2017.

Cover Reveal

November 2, 2017 By Karen Witemeyer

Not long ago, Becky Wade revealed her wonderful new cover here on this blog. And since Becky and I have books releasing about the same time next year, I thought it would be fun to follow in her footsteps.
