  • Happy Birthday, Hiram!

    Today in the alternate universe of Summer Park, Garrett and Rachel Wolfstrom’s first born turns one! I’m already seeing bits and pieces of what he’ll be like as an adult. He’s the quietest of the offspring from the first two books, though I think Alexis might have him beat in seriousness. The twins won’t be…

  • Happy Birthday, Dante!

    On this day two years ago, I posted birthday wishes for Dante, the hero of my first published novel, Wandering Soul.

  • Fictional Friends

    One of the reasons I write is that I love books. I have loved them for as long as I can remember. The characters in my favorite books have kept me company when I was lonely and been with me through both good times and bad. In short, they were friends. This feeling of connection…

  • Lingering Touch Backstory —The Limo

    I have a tradition with The Summer Park Psychics. Whenever there’s a new release, I like to write a little backstory piece about that title. For Lingering Touch, I decided on a moment that takes place right before the action of that book. We learn in Wandering Soul that Garrett was concerned enough about Elsa’s…
