All Kinds of Posts Going on This Week!

Just wanted to touch base this week, as it seems a regular plethora of posts are going up and I hope you can check them out!

On MONDAY, find me at Sleuths and Suspects, answering some fun questions from the lovely Author Amanda Holland about my mysteries. Comment for a chance to win an e-copy of Trial by Twelve!

Also on MONDAY, I’m visiting the illustrious, one-and-only Rel at Relz Reviews. Her interview questions really made me ponder! Hope you can check that out.

Also on MONDAY, I enjoyed this interview with Beckie at By the Book blog. I talk about some live-action research I’ve done for my mysteries and why I enjoy writing about married life.

TUESDAY…I’m getting another year older. (grin) My daughter took some new author photos of me while my white hairs were actually colored…here are a few results…

And back to the schedule…

WEDNESDAY you can pop over to Clash of the Titles and VOTE for Trial by Twelve! I have been in this contest 2x before and I never win! I would love to have your vote that you’d like to read/have read Trial by Twelve. I cherish the comments readers have offered on my books there.

THURSDAY there’s nothing going on…but if you haven’t read my little flash fiction piece over on Author Voni Harris’ blog, I hope you can. I LOVE writing short fiction and she asked four authors to write a 500-word piece on a mysteriously woodsy photo. My take was a bit sad yet hopeful, if that makes sense.

FRIDAY I’m thrilled to welcome debut Author MacKenzie Morganthal to my blog and share an excerpt of her novel, Not Abandoned. MacKenzie has a heart for sharing about human trafficking and does so with this story.

And finally, thank you all for all your support as Trial by Twelve launched. I know I’ve said it before, but I will continue to thank you! I appreciate everyone who has read and is reading it. Have a great week, all!

-Heather

Excerpt with MacKenzie Morganthal, Author of Not Abandoned »

Hi, I’m Heather…

I write contemporary mysteries and Viking historicals. Born and brought up in the mountains of West Virginia, I enjoy writing about small towns, family relationships, and women who aren't afraid to protect those they love. Read More…

Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love setting my contemporary mystery series in my home state of WV. What you might not know is that there was a time I wanted nothing more than to move away and spread my wings (somewhere like NYC! Where I wound up living for a year when I got married!). But years down the road, I felt my mountain roots pulling me back. Suddenly, I could see nothing but beauty in these comforting mountains and moody skies and honeysuckled summers. West Virginia is so many things—good and bad as any state is—but it’s entirely unique. My husband once marveled at how many people “came back” to their home state here, even after being gone for years, and I see that all the time. These #Appalachianmountains have a way about them, and it becomes a part of you, a love you don’t want to let go of. I’m a #mountainmama, and I’m glad to bring this truly #wildandwonderful state to readers with my books.
