I’m thrilled to announce my name was picked via a lottery for The Writer’s Voice Blogfest! Several blogs have posted how the event works, but Mother. Write. (Repeat.) has been a go-to for me for years for agent interviews, and that’s where I read about the contest, so here’s Krista’s link. (Thanks, Krista!) Per the […]
For a change, I’m posting a snippet from my WIP – The Farm, my steampunk fantasy romance for New Adults (young adults age +18 years). The heroine, an artist named Annmar, is making her way to a new job. She’d love to draw one of these women dressed for a special day out. Their fancy […]

Another week, another bit of Passages, my science fiction romance. When Quinn finally finds his missing ‘brother’, he discovers those memories of their fights weren’t exaggerated.

I’m guilty of a gap in postings. *sigh* But I’m back again with another excerpt of my science fiction romance. My hero Quinn discovers his new bodyguard Eve is not a happy camper when he disappears before she’s had her coffee. I’d gone to the sideboard to pour a second cup when the door swung […]
