So, first, thank you for all the sweet reviews about Fraser! He’s quietly been climbing the charts while you’ve been leaving kind reviews, and I’m grateful.
So, I’m just back from a fun writing retreat with 8 authors and my business partner for a publishing company I run (Sunrise Publishing) – and we got to chatting about book themes,
I’m still holed up in my writing cave, but I’m coming up for a quick breath to say “Wow! You guys are really excited about the Minnesota Marshalls Series!”
GOOD! Because I am too! That’s why I’ve been head down, fingers clicking away day and night, to finish the next book in the series.
Happy New Year! Okay, I’m twenty days in, I know, but I’ve been nose down into a project (I call it my writing cave) and am just coming up for air.
And it’s been a fun project…so fun that it sort of swept me away for most of November and December.
What. A. CRAZY. Week!
Are you still scrambling with the New School Year adjustments? Admittedly, no kids here, but my September is NUTS! I’m up early today, headed to the airport, on my way to Florida for a quick trip to do some remodeling on the house, and attend the annual NINC (Novelist,

It hits the stands tonight at midnight!
I know, I know–long time no hear. I’ve been head down, working on a story! (Oh, I can’t wait to tell you ALLL about it—it features one of the Kingston brothers from Alaska. His name is Ranger, and he’s all cool headed and serious until the woman he loves goes missing…more on that later!)
But,
Remember the fun Dr. Suess tale, Horton Hears a Who? I loved reading that book (and later my son starred in a Suessical version of said book), but my favorite line is when all the Whos, who live on a speck on a dandelion, start to raise their voice as one saying,
So, you know how it went…last year was the crazy year.
The year we all found ourselves doing something different. Staying at home. Homeschooling, maybe. Reading more. Making foods we hadn’t tried. Mostly, living outside our comfort zone, right?
Me too.
So, I did something I’d ALWAYS wanted to do but never had time.
I hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving! Listen, I know it was quiet (if you lived in a state where you had to shelter in place). I agree. I cooked for 4 people instead of my usual, beloved 14, but on the bright side, because it was so quiet, I didn’t burn anything. Almost didn’t feel right…
