Reblog: Viking Women: Not as Different as You Might Think

Today I just wanted to link you up with an older post I did for Medievalists.net, two years ago when God’s Daughter released. Find that post here. It’s a reminder of why I set about writing the Vikings of the New World Saga. Because misconceptions about Vikings abound (they were dirty, they were nothing but murderers, and the list goes… 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 thingsโ€”good and bad as any state isโ€”but itโ€™s entirely unique. My husband once marveled at how many people โ€œcame backโ€ 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 donโ€™t want to let go of. Iโ€™m a #mountainmama, and Iโ€™m glad to bring this truly #wildandwonderful state to readers with my books.
