March 2020 Wallpaper

Where the heck did February go? I know it’s a short month, but it’s only shorter by one day this year thanks to Leap Year, and still it really flew by. Since it did fly by so fast, I didn’t finish my book as planned, so that’s what I’ll be doing this March, writing HONEY BUNS, another standalone novel in my Mudville Smalltown Secrets series. This picture (below) reminds me of the real life upstate New York town where I currently reside, which I used as the model for my fictional Mudville. In both the fictional and the real town there’s the local dive bar (and I use that that term with the utmost respect!) And in that bar you can get amazing chicken wings, and french fries and fried pickles (don’t knock ’em til you try ’em!). And there’s a pool table. I have plans for that pool table–and man, that sounded dirty. I swear those were NOT my plans originally. I was just going to have Boone be a pool champ but now I’m thinking I might have to plan a little more action for that table. I guess we’ll see. That’s at least 1 book in the […]

Variations on a Theme: Thanksgiving Reads

Apparently I like Thanksgiving. I was putting together a newsletter for today and wanted to feature a book that has a Thanksgiving scene in it and I realized exactly how many books I have that qualify. Like a lot of them! So I decided to round them all up here in one post in case, like me, you enjoy matching your reading to the season. FYI, in case you missed it, the book and scene I finally decided to feature in the NEWSLETTER today is from Cowboy Blue. KISSING BOOKS After a few blissful weeks in Mudville housesitting her Aunt Agnes’s home and animals, the heroine, Harper, is back home in the suburbs of NYC trying not to miss the new friends and family–and the guy–she left behind in the tiny upstate town. But when her mom breaks out the old family photos after the turkey is all eaten, Harper can’t deny her mind and her heart are elsewhere. Can she make it to Mudville before the pumpkin pie is served to the guests in Aunt Agnes’s grand Victorian dining room? And will Stone be there when Harper arrives?
