Pros and Cons of Being a Viking

Let’s talk pros and cons, shall we? Would you choose to live in Viking times or now? PROS: 1) Vikings were expert storytellers. They would’ve spent lots of family time together during those cold winters. We don’t do that often in our technological age. 2) Vikings were adventurous, but also family-oriented. So many of their adventures were wrapped around giving… Read More

Forgive Me if I’m Marketing Too Loud

When an author makes the decision to self-publish, generally we just see the tip of the iceberg in terms of what we’ll have to do to launch our books.

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 ā€œcame backā€ 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.
