Woo-hoo! The Witch of the Meadows is freeeee on all retailers! I was lucky enough to get a BookBub deal for Book 1 to coincide with the release of Book 3, Lost Whisperer of the Seas on Wednesday, July, 17th. The sale has started a bit early and I wanted my readers here to be […]
I’ve had my head down on my upcoming book release, but not so much that I missed this: The first swallowtail I’ve seen in our townhouse yard–or habitat as I like to refer to it. I’m dismayed by how few butterflies there are this season, but then the Joe Pye Weed has just begun to […]
It’s #BookQW – don’t we all ‘dream’ of an exciting adventure? More from Chapter 10: Ty wasn’t the raw beginner Coral had expected. Not once had he called a line a rope. He’d even properly referred to the line controlling the mainsail as the mainsheet. He’d handled the Sunfish’s sail and tiller with no mistakes—or […]
It’s #BookQW and perhaps you’ll ‘find’ a new path or new love, like my H&H! More from Chapter 3 (coming in two short weeks!): “She’s showing her control, Salmon, when you aren’t. No one should tell anyone, since illegal dueling is why we’re doing it.” Ma pointed to a pile of bags. “Please take our […]
It’s #BookQW and this family history has been held ‘tight’! More from The Twisting, Volume Two of The Luminated Threads, Chapter 3: Miriam lifted the mug, and a smile etched itself across her tired face. “You’re a strong-willed woman. Just like your mother.” Annmar’s eyes widened. “Mother? You knew my mother?” Without realizing it, she […]
Yes, pollinator week is a thing, and more popular than ever! Pollinator Partnership has more on activities and the critical need to promote the health of our pollinators. I’m in Colorado and have been seeing these really cool bumblebees with orange bands on our flowers. I finally got photos! I searched online and discovered the […]
It’s #BookQW and my H&H are a ‘scream’ trying to sail together! More from chapter 10: Hastily, Coral checked their position. On the last trip around she’d warned Ty not to get so close to South Dock because the prevailing winds could blow them into the posts. But he’d done fine. “Ready,” she answered. He […]
It’s #BookQW and a moment with a brother seems like a ‘year’! More of the excerpt from Chapter 4: Without my magic, I can’t speak with our dolphins. And if she couldn’t give the young’uns their training directions, what was the point of sailing out to meet them? Come to think of it, she’d never […]
It’s #BookQW – don’t get caught ‘short’ of reads for #PrideMonth! Guardian of the Pines brings back old friends from Book 1 and meets new wizards for outdoor adventure, ancient tree magic and a sweet gay romance. More of the excerpt from Chapter 8: Fern crossed her arms. She shouldn’t say it, but… “You’re being […]
We took a family trip south through the rural Virginia countryside last weekend and passed yard after yard with Southern Magnolia, Magnolia grandiflora, trees towering over the ranch houses. This is not a tree for the faint-of-heart. But it is one for bees and other pollinators. Southern Magnolia blossoms have the largest nectaries–pools of nectar–and […]
