Mystery Reviews: The Cover Story and A Sticky Inheritance

As I mentioned in my last email, I've been reading several mysteries lately--some for fun, some for review purposes for publishers. Today, I wanted to share my (albeit brief!) reviews on a couple I've read recently. Oddly enough, both books are actually second-in-series books. I haven't read the … [Read more...]

Interview and Giveaway with Author Becky Doughty

My author guest today needs very little by way of introduction, because if you've followed me for any period of time, you've likely noticed that I'm always suggesting Becky Doughty's books to readers, not only because she's my critique partner, but because she is truly one of the best writers I've … [Read more...]

Classics Challenge!

You know what? I've been reading a lot of modern authors over the past few years, and while I love doing that (sign up for my newsletter here for updates on what I've been reading lately), I feel I've fallen way behind in my reading of classics. Ya'll, I love me some classics. ;) I'll share four … [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.
