I confess to being a bonafide foodie & cooking along with my heroines, or in this case, baking. Growing up in my granny’s Kentucky kitchen, in which not once in all her 97 years did she do dishes by anything but hand (no dishwasher), everything else was from scratch, too! Sometimes she would make old-fashioned gingerbread which makes me wonder …
For those who like a visual to go with a story, here’s the template for Noble Rynallt! Granted, it may not look like the hero in your head and heart and that’s okay. Here’s a peek at Liberty, too! When I begin a story I have a vague impression in my mind of hair color, eye color, height, and so …
I’m blessed by readers who enjoy my books and then leave reviews about what the story meant to them. 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.

I don’t spend a lot of time on PInterest but I was over there recently when this lovely image floated by. Be still my historical heart! So I pinned this pin and gave thanks for another beautiful Dutch cover. I was in the Netherlands years ago and have never forgotten it so this delights me. It even has the look …
Even after eight published novels (and a drawer full of unpublished ones), hearing your book has arrived in the publishing warehouse is still a thrill. And my head editor was thoughtful enough to send an email saying she’d just received her copy of The Lacemaker and was very pleased to be publishing it. I should get my copy any minute …
