Still working hard on REDEMPTION’S EDGE. Edge and Meara are thinking about having that famous romance novel special: “We’ll sleep together one time to get it out of our systems and then be done with each other.” MWAH HA HA HA HA (also I know this guy doesn’t look much like Edge, but what are…

A DEAD END CHRISTMAS is out in the world today, and early reviews are making me deliriously happy (and making me laugh out loud, which seems fitting).

Read MoreHow is it Thanksgiving next week????
I can’t believe Thanksgiving is six days away. It’s surely two weeks or more away, right? Right? Damn Covid. I’ve lost almost a month to this crap. Although I realize how very lucky I am that it’s not worse, it’s still hard to cope with the persistent cough, nose blowing, weakness, exhaustion, and brain fog.…
