The much anticipated Spring Scavenger Hunt is about to begin. Hope you can join us as March blooms! The first stop is Lisa Bergren’s beautiful site! I’m especially excited because I’m stop #2 on the hunt this time with some never-before-shared content that I hope will delight you like it does me… HAPPY HUNTING!
I confess to being a bonafide foodie & cooking along with my heroines, or in this case, baking.

I also admire those who might not enjoy a book but point out what they do and don’t like in a gracious, helpful way. Good reviews are like the finest chocolate. Here’s one and I call literary. You can tell the …
Ani Get Your Gun by Anne Kushnick There are some fine frontier authors out there just as there are fine frontier artists. I’ve often wished I could inhabit the head and heart and gifted hands of Pamela Patrick White or David Wright or John Buxton, just to name a few. Anne Kushnick is new to me but the woman she …
In my new release, The Lacemaker, I dedicated the book to a female patriot in my family lineage and am bursting my buttons that I could do so! The centuries since Susanna Thorne Hightower lived have left little about her though I long for a diary or letters. She has such a novel-worthy name! George HIghtower is the patriot that …
