I’m going to a “garden party” after work today and it’s got me wondering about something. In this particular case, my aunt recently moved into a new home and in lieu of housewarming gifts has asked for items for her garden. Garden Party. But I know there are other references to a Garden Party and …

Next month I have TWO — count ’em, TWO — trips to Kentucky and some genius (I honestly cannot remember who or I’d give linkage credit) suggested I listen to an audio book to pass the time. (You know, I’m thinking it was AB. Thanks AB!) Anyways, I’ve never listened to an audio book before …
I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it here before, but I have a near-photographic memory. Tell me something and odds are I’ll remember it. (Yes, this frustrates some people to no end.)

Remember how I wrote a couple novels and was all excited to pitch them to literary agents and hopefully, fingers crossed, get published? Yeah… That’s still my goal and I’m still excited about my novel(s), but I just haven’t been able to get to them. I have ALL my beta comments in for After the …
I’d like to give a warm welcome to Stephen Parrish, a writing friend whose debut novel, The Tavernier Stones, comes out May 1st (although rumor has it you can already get it online and, as Stephen puts it, “in courageous bookstores everywhere”). Stephen has helped me in the past when I was working on my …
