I met Kathy Cretsinger several years ago at the Ken-Ten Writers Retreat. I’d never heard of the retreat, but one of my website clients, Suzanne Bratcher, invited me to go with her. She wanted to meet the publisher who was about to publish her debut novel, The Copper Box. I enjoy meeting new people in […]
A Different Story
As with us all, I’m sure many of your plans for 2020 have changed over the last few months. When the year began, I set a slightly crazy goal for myself. I wanted to write two new books, publish one (in the works for this October!), get a contract on at least one more, and […]
The Value of Your Words
If you’re like me, you sometimes wonder if what you do, or what you say, or what you write make a difference. A simple “well-done” or “thank you” help us know that what we do, say, or write have value. As authors, we are encouraged when we know people are reading our books and express […]

A Group of Support
When I started down the road to becoming an author, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect. Writing seemed a job that required a lot of alone-time, not something I’m good at, as I’ve learned since the COVID-19 pandemic started. However, the further into this career I traveled, the more I discovered it’s not one […]
A Time Like This
I remember school being canceled for a day or two because of flu. I remember ducking under my desk at school with my arms over my head and go-home drills during the Cold War. I remember being stuck at home while the snow piled high, closing roads and businesses. I don’t recall a time […]
What A Headache
I get a lot of headaches. I’m not sure why, but I’d like to figure it out sometime so I can make them stop. Most days I wake up with a headache, but I’m able to push through it. I go to work, and by mid-morning it’s generally faded to almost nothing. A twinge that’s […]
