Dear Reader,
If you’ve not been to my site in a while I wanted to let you know about my new BLOG called MIXING IT UP. I’ve already started chronicling some of my recent travels, including gun shows, mystery conferences and adventures with my mini dachshunds Buddy and Bella. I would love for you to stop by and have a look. I also value your input, so tell me what catches your eye on Blogs? Pictures, polls, quotes, interviews? I’ve created the Blog for you and want it to cover the topics of interest to you. And speaking of Blogs, be on the look out in November when I go on my next Blog Tour.

In November look for my latest release, DEAD RINGER, which follows I’M WATCHING YOU’s Kendall Shaw. Also look for me in the SILVER BELLS anthology with Fern Michaels, JoAnn Ross and Judy Duarte. My novella is called CHRISTMAS PAST and tells readers the fate of Nicole Piper a character we first meet in I’M WATCHING YOU and again in DEAD RINGER.
And if you haven’t entered my contest, sign up today! I’m giving autographed copies of all four of my books released in the last twelve months including, COLD CASE COP, I’M WATCHING YOU, DEAD RINGER and SILVER BELLS.
