For ten blissful weeks I’ve pretended to be a full time writer. And now it’s back to the real world of waking up at five in the morning to go to the day job. I know that I’m blessed to have a good job and I love doing speech therapy with all my little people, but waking up that early is … Read More

The Boyfriend Bet
I thought I’d share another scene from my sweet, snarky romantic comedy The Boyfriend Bet which comes out August 22. In this scene Grant has just left an encounter with his ex, Lena.

Stranger Things
Have you seen Stranger Things on Netflix? It has a freaky monster from another dimension and evil scientists who use kids for their own gain.

Despite the questionable fashion … Read More

I Can’t Believe It’s July Already
How did July arrive so quickly? I swear sometimes it’s like you blink and a month is gone. July is usually a month of Hades-type-temperatures in Southern Illinois. It’s oddly pleasant and cool, which feels totally wrong. This summer I plan to finish up the next book in my Going Down In Flames series (number 4 if anyone is counting). … Read More
