Meet the Hayden Kent Mysteries cast of characters--critters included. Since today is fun fact first names day, I'll dish that only ONE of these first names belongs to a real person. Can you guess which one.

Several years ago I taught myself to crochet. There's only so many afghans you can use, or gift. On National Sweater Day, I'm unveiling my first crochet sweater. Not too bad for an amateur. Do you like to challenge yourself with new skills?

Ever wonder how the Groundhog feels about his annual meteorology gig? Yep, Wally Grass's face says it all. Who else is watching Bill Murray tonight? P.S. - Phil saw his shadow. 6 more weeks. #groundhogday

It's Friday, what are you reading? I'm reading South Beach Scandal by Cindy Quayle. I love a well-written book about scuba diving and this delivers. It's also set in my old "stomping grounds." South Florida and South Beach. So Good! #CindyQuayle

That's refreshing. My former small press had the writers find all their blurbers. It was embarrassing to say the least.

After all these years, I finally watched Forrest Gump. Have you seen it? It hit all the good feels. What a wonderful movie. Fun, funny, heartbreaking, and WOW were they ever young! #Forrestgump

Missing my mother by grace on this Australia Day. She was born in Sydney. That's her nephew John with her when I took them on a tour of the Florida Keys.

I found this sculpture in a shop in Fort Kent, ME. The box called him Mr. Mu. Being a cat person, I fell in love with him. Being a writer, I translated Mr. Mu To Mr. Muse. He's always on my desk smiling when the words are hard to find. Do you have a lucky charm? #luckycharm

My calendar says today is World Snow Day. During the winter of 2007-2008 we experienced over 200" of snow. This little guy seems to be praying for it to stop. Some winters are crazy that way. #snowday #mainelife

Fred was a gentle giant, but he was a giant, and we called him the closer. I can't figure out if he's administering rescue breaths to Cub in this photo or trying to do away with him. Either way, they both wish you a happy Caturday. #caturday

I'm hard at work on Hayden Kent #4 - it's set in the Florida Keys and tentatively titled Death by Deception. I'm missing the tropics right now. Dropping in on Sharkey helps. Join me, the water's fine. #TGIF #FloridaKeys #Tropicaldreaming
