Tag, You're It!

Margo Carmichael tagged me. I have to turn to the nearest book at hand, turn to page 123, go to the fifth sentence, and post the next three. Then tag five more people. I'm tagging the Crit-Kritters!

Here's my selection!

An irresistible impulse can be carried out directly or indirectly. Murder while under duress: occurs when someone feels that legitimate threats of death or physical harm have been made against himself or members of his famil, such as the case in which a child has been abducted and the kidnappers tell the father he must kill someone in exchange for the release of the child. This type of murder can be direct or indirect.

Come on, guys, I write mysteries. This is from a police procedural book.

Candy-Coated Secrets

Yippee! I got the contract for book two in the Summer Meadows Series, Candy-Coated Secrets. Thinks are moving along very quickly. I'm still excitedly awaiting cover art for Fudge-Laced Felonies. Once I do, I'll post it here.

The new series I'm working on is moving along at a nice pace. I'm enjoying the personalities of the characters and finding new, interesting, ways to "kill" people.

Happy Writing and God Bless!

Coming Up Empty

What to write, what to write?

Life has a way of keeping a person too busy to do much else but survive. Our teenage son seems to take up most of the time we have, with one escapade or another. Hopefully, he'll grow up soon and turn into the Godly man we hope and pray he does.

I've been reading quite a few good books lately. Found a new favorite suspense author. Allison Brennan. Scarey! A bit graphic, so if you're squeamish...

Still eagerly awaiting my first look at the cover of Fudge-Laced Felonies. Y'all will be the second to get a glimpse, after my husband of course.

I'm working on a new series, Tales from Timbuktu. Takes place in a fictional town in Arkansas. Working title is Hiding Behind Forgetfulness. I'm also working on Deceitful Promise which is a Romantic suspense. Busy! Busy!
