When this post goes live, it’ll be Christmas Eve in North America. I wanted to take the time to thank the guest bloggers, readers, and commenters for taking the time to participate at my web site. I’m not much for newsletters. I’m a blogger at heart. I’ve had a personal blog since 2004 (it’s pretty …
The Writer’s Tag was created by Lorraine Ambers and Ari Meghlen as a fun way to connect with other writers, and help us get to know each other better. I have been tagged by my friend and fellow eXtasy Books author V.J. Allison. Check out her blog at Word Processor, Romance, Cats, Kids, and Creed.
As I mentioned before, I schedule posts way ahead of time. Today, it’s the 18th and this post will go live on the 28th. By then, I’ll have received my critique back for Redeemed. Then I’ll begin working on edits come December 1st. For November, please see my previous WIP Wednesday, because I’m participating in …

Just a quick update about Fantasy Friday–when I post my picks every Friday for golf fantasy offered by the PGA Tour, European PGA Tour, and the Golf Channel.

Yes, it’s been a long time since I last posted a Fantasy Friday. Fridays at my blog have been busy, but I’m still glued to the TV, watching the Race to Dubai. That’s what’s airing this weekend. Woot! On Sunday evening, I’ll find out who’s the winner of the DP World Tour Championship and the …
Today, I’m blogging at Romance University so there’ll be no Throwback Thursday. Stop on by RU and join the conversation as we talk promotion for new authors.

Today, I’m doing something different. I’ve given the reigns of my blog to fellow eXasty Books author V.J. Allison so she can interview her leading man from her latest release Stricken, a steamy contemporary romance set in Nova Scotia, Canada. **** Good day everyone. I’m V.J. Allison, and today, I’m interviewing Ewan Campbell. He’s the …
Yes, I’m participating. So I thought I’d give a quick update of my writing goals and progress until the end of the year. As you know, Blessed was released on July 06, 2018, the first book in the Matawapit Family Trilogy. At the end of October, I finished the fourth draft for Redeemed, Book Two, …

It’s been ages since I’ve done a book review. So I’m happy to say here is my latest review of Guarded Wish by Addison Carmichael. I did my best to keep this spoiler free, because I’m also posting the review at Goodreads.

Today, I have author Karen Botha guesting at my blog. She’s here to talk about The Commitment Collection, her latest book series featuring super-hawt race car drivers.

Who’s on the Cover? I can’t think of one reader who doesn’t enjoy a nice cover on a romance novel. Covers are important to readers and writers. If you see an awful cover, it makes you go “hmmm.” See a good cover and you want to find out more. And…
