Looking Back, Looking Forward

January 3, 2025 By Robin Lee Hatcher

As an old year comes to an end, I always like to reflect on it on my personal blog, and I decided that post was worth sharing with my Inspired by Life and Fiction family on this first post of mine in the new year. So here is my slightly modified version of that post: I don’t know about you, but I find it shocking that we just hit the one-quarter mark in the 21st century. And think of this: my … [Read more...]

Something Delicious

November 15, 2024 By Robin Lee Hatcher

On Monday, I finished writing my 94th book. To Capture a Mountain Man is the third book in The British Are Coming series, and it will release in February 2025. (To confuse things, my 93rd book doesn’t release until summer 2025.) To celebrate typing “The End,” I went to see “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” on Tuesday. I laughed. I happy-cried.

In other words, the ability to switch between tasks easily or at least agilely. For example, a month ago, I decided to put two of my books on sale this month. Call it a welcome to fall sale. The first of the two … [Read more...]

A Chance to Win an Early Copy

October 4, 2024 By Robin Lee Hatcher

I hoped I would be the first to post that picture of me "nabbing" Karen during the Faith, Hope & Love Christian Writers conference, but our posting days being what they are, she got to share before I could. Like Karen, I had a wonderful time in Phoenix, and while I have quite a few photos from the weekend, that one will remain my favorite. We laughed so hard. There is something about being … [Read more...]
