Sorry for the radio silence. I always take December off for family, faith, and, well… just to relax and enjoy all the festivities. Come January I will start back up on Stolen Sun and posting more regularly on TAP. I wish you all a Merry Christmas! God bless you all and I hope you have […]
Wishing all my American readers a Happy Thanksgiving Day! I hope you all enjoy time with your families, and I thank you for continuing to follow me and read my stories. God bless you all! Now get off the internet, go eat, watch football, spend time with loved ones, and enjoy your day! And if […]
Every year around Christmas, my mom, sister, and I go Christmas shopping together. It’s a no-boys-allowed affair (though we did make an exception one year for my awesome nephew, that is another story). It has become one of our many traditions. This year, my daughter-in-law will get to come, but I digress; this is about […]
I know I say it every year, so why break tradition? I’m SOOOO ready for Fall! Not only do I love the cooler weather, but we usually get rain too and I love rain as well. I write better in the fall. I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because I want to be inside where […]

I’m just starting back to work on a series I’ve been wanting to write for a long time. The series is set in my home state of Texas. And I got to thinking about past stories I’ve written set in Texas. I had one editor that constantly wanted to change my words. You see non-Texans […]
I’ve been reading a lot of cozy mysteries lately and the one thing they all have in common is small towns. I love small towns. Not just reading about them, but being in them. There is just something about them that makes them well… cozy. I did not grow up in a small town, though […]
originally posted on my old blog in 2018 If you aren’t familiar with Christmas Markets, they are quite popular in Europe. There is a nice little documentary on Amazon about Christmas Markets called The Seasoned Traveler Christmas Markets if you are interested.
