I’ve had to move so many deadlines during the past two pandemic years. I am sorry. I know it’s horribly frustrating for my wonderful readers, and I’m so sorry. From now on, I’m not putting any books up for preorder until they’re finished, edited, copyedited, and in the can, so to speak, so this won’t happen again. I love you all for your kindness and patience and I’m sorry I’ve let you down.
It’s not the kind of author I want to be. Depression and the pandemic kicked my ass. 🙁
But I promise to do better. Going forward, I will be better.
(and more Tiger’s Eye is coming this month!)

Halloween pug and some news…
Some news:
This year and a half has been hard. Hard on me, hard on all of us, hard on the world. What I’ve finally come to understand is that my creative well needs refilling. That sucker is bone dry. ☹ Here are a few things:
1. As you may have noticed, the past couple of Atlantis books have been short stories—I just haven’t had the stories inside me to do more. And the more I fight with June in Atlantis, the more I’m realizing that I don’t have the story that Rafe deserves ready just yet, either.
THANK YOU!!! BLINK OF AN EYE is a bestseller!!
THANK YOU! Thank you so much for making release day for BLINK OF AN EYE so special!
Blink:
– is a “hot new release” at Amazon and shot up the charts!
– is “trending now” at Kobo!
– is a “hot new book” at Apple!
– is the 83rd bestselling book in the entire Nook store!!
Thank you a million billion. There were times during this horrible depression that I thought I’d never write again and now the words are finally flowing.
BLINK OF AN EYE delayed again – I’m so sorry
I’m sorry, everyone. I’m still not done with BLINK. Things have been very difficult. I hope another week or so but I’m putting in the official delay to end of June just in case.
I have to hope and believe that one day this hideous depression will lift. It’s very hard to write funny or happy ever after when the world looks so gray and dark.
I’m going to the Mayo to talk about some radical treatments and who knows? Maybe something will finally work.
I love you all and I’m really sorry for yet another delay. Thank you for your kindness and patience.
A free book for you!!
As a thank you gift for hanging in there while BLINK OF AN EYE has been delayed, I’m giving you PRIVATE EYE – the second in the Tiger’s Eye Mystery series – free for a limited time!! Get yours now: CLICK HERE!
And DEAD EYE, the first in my Tiger’s Eye Mystery series, is free at all retailers! Go HERE!!
BLINK will be out February 28, without fail! We’re finally in the final editing stage so I can’t get my hands on it again. Thanks for your patience during my severe depression period – this has been a rough few months.
Slight delay
Quick note to let you know BLINK OF AN EYE will be out in December instead of 11/30 – thank you for your patience!
I’ve always been honest with you about my depression, and this has been a horrible month. So I need a couple more weeks for BLINK OF AN EYE. As this is the week for it, I have to tell you how thankful I am for your patience and understanding. I’m trying to up my daily dosage of pug hugs. It helps.

Keep on standing back up
I needed to hear this today. Here’s Jack reminding us to keep on standing back up. Friends told me this when we lived in Japan, and it has always stayed with me.
