It's always great to see your books on a library shelf, but keeping company with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle??? Wow. #BookSky

It's ALWAYS about the money.

I love the little pops of autumn colors. Getting outside soothes my soul.

Late summer, early fall. I love the peace of being outside on a gorgeous day and soaking in the beauty of nature.

This morning, I wrote my favorite two words. The End. Which, of course, it isn't because now the real work of revision begins. #amwriting #writingcommunity

I hit the 80K word point in my WIP. It's really rough, but that's what revision is for. #amwriting #writingcommunity

15 years ago today, the Universal Cat Distribution System deposited this tiny, wormy, flea-infested little one on our front porch. I tried to find a home for her, but Kensi had already decided THIS was home and I was her human. I've learned to never question her again.

Still on target to finish this first draft by August 31. I'm solidly in the 3rd act and the pace is picking up. My favorite part of the drafting process. #amwriting #writingcommunity

Me, too. Had to get up and make coffee before the power went out! Priorities.

And more coming later this morning. I can almost hear our zucchini growing.

Time to celebrate. I turned in my proofread of No Stone Left Unturned this morning, which means I'm back to working on only ONE book for a while. Bonus: I'd been away from Stone long enough to have fresh eyes, & I have to say, I'm kinda happy with it! #booksky #writingcommunity

I finished it in two sittings. Definite page turner.

I'm working on 2 books this week. Still drafting one, doing (I hope!) the final proofread on another. So if I'm slow responding to questions or emails, that's why. #amwriting #amediting #writingcommunity

It's that time of year. The garden is overflowing with zucchini and yellow squash. Dinner today used 2 of them. Shrimp curry with veggies.

Had a fabulous time on Wednesday evening, in conversation with the delightful Shari Lapena! Big thank you to Mystery Lovers Bookshop & Riverstone Books for making it happen!

I'm looking forward to joining the amazing Shari Lapena in conversation this evening about her new thriller, SHE DIDN'T SEE IT COMING. But first, I need to pound out 1000 words of my own to keep on target. #amwriting #writingcommunity #booksky
