Snake Oil at the County Fair

Last weekend was our county fair. Do you attend those? We go every year, as it’s our town’s Big Deal. (I think most small towns have at least one Big Deal. Where I grew up, the rodeo was the annual Big Deal, three nights of parades and rodeos and a carnival.) I went with my […]

Summer Teen Job

I’m polishing a book to release next week! My 90s Boy Band Boyfriend ought to go live on 8/23. It’s been one of my most fun books to write. I mean, it’s about a 90s boy band star who miraculously survives a plane wreck, only to wake up in the present day at the home of his biggest fan, […]

House By The Side of the Road

(That’s a new word I learned yesterday from the storm warning center. It means a massive dust storm in Arizona.) Here’s the deal. […]

Super Daisy is Back & Even Super-er

Super Daisy is Back & Even Super-er

Somewhat of a long story precedes this new release announcement. It goes like this: My very first attempt at self-publishing was in 2013. I’d gotten my rights back to Delicious Conversation (now Chocolate and Conversation), and I designed a crummy cover and put it on Kindle. It shocked me when two months later, I saw […]
