1. Work on Ghost has been progressing with way more speed over the past few weeks. I even managed to get serious pages done when my husband and I were visiting family for a few days, which is pretty impressive once you know how easily distracted I can be. I'm in the middle of the big finish now, actually. I've just got to wrap up this huge, complex, crucially important scene, and then I'm off to a resolution and an epilogue. I am looking forward to it so much, you have no idea. The closer to the end of a book I get, the more hours I tend to put in so that I don't lose track of the million threads I'm trying to pull together, but oh man, does it get mentally exhausting in the last strides. I need a day off to watch bad Netflix in my jammies.

So it's a Saturday in March, and that means we get a tidbit of Hard Line to celebrate that we're a month away from release! (That's April 2nd for the ebook, April 24th for the paperback, folks). Now, last year I did this on FB, but I had a bunch of readers point out that they aren't on FB anymore, so I decided to post these in the blog instead. But I'll still put up alerts on FB (and Goodreads and Twitter), never fear! So without further ado...
Read MoreI'm going to be honest--I'm not a natural blogger. Part of it is that I'm simply not good at short form writing. Anyone who's read my books knows that I tend to err on the side of too many words rather than too few, and my blog is no different. Which means I don't blog that often, because it feels like a writing project in and of itself.
Because of that, I've decided that I'm going to simplify things a bit. I figure if I can keep you guys in the loop with less effort, I'm more likely to post more often.
Read MoreThe first 3 chapters of Hard Line for your Thanksgiving enjoyment. Which is sort of long for an excerpt but I don't care. I do what I want. ;D
