It has been a long time coming...well, at least 7 months since I gave my 8th book to my publisher to edit. And now with the editing complete, the cover nearly ready, the book is almost on its way to the printer for a galley copy to, once again, review and edit a final time before we print up copies available for sale. Phew! And then, close on its heels comes book #9, which has been even a longer time coming. That one was written in 2019 during NaNoWriMo - National November Writing Month - and then put on the back burner. But I kept thinking about it and just last year pulled it out and did more editing to finalize it for my publisher. That one will be coming out later this month.
The goal is to get these two books ready so I can start promoting them both. My plan is to have private home book discussion groups where I talk about my books, my writing process, and everything else to do with writing. I understand that most people have a book that they want to write 'someday'. I'm going to convince them that 'someday' is now! We don't know what the future holds so why wait to write your novel, or memoir, or childrens, or non-fiction book.
If anyone reading this is interested in having a book discussion group or even becoming a member of my "street team" (more about this later - I'm just learning about it), please contact me at

Althought it might seem like I wrote my next book, "Deep Lake House" in weeks since it has been only a few weeks since my last book "The Mart" came out, I was working on "Deep Lake House" while "The Mart" was going through final edits and reviews. So it took the better part of 2023 and the first two months of 2024 to complete it. I guess you could say I'm on a roll! Or, as my writing friend, Nancy, likes to say, I'm on fire! Which is appropriate for me since I am an Aries which is a fire sign!

We just received two copies of "The Mart" that Jim and I will completely look through and make whatever last minute changes need to be made. Although tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I know Jim and I will be spending most of the weekend reading through "The Mart" ONE FINAL TIME!!! It is always suprising to me the little mistakes or edits that can be missed, no matter how many times we read through the book. And I don't even remember how many times I've read through the book, making edits along the way each and every time.

Sometime later today we'll be sending "The Mart" my latest novel (which includes a collection of short stories) to the printer to get our galley copies. Once we have those in hand we'll read through the entire book one more time, make whatever changes need to be made, and have the book printed and ready for purchase.
