I just finished The Butcher of the Forest by @premeemohamed.com standing up in my kitchen cuz I couldn’t put it down! What a beautiful, riveting story! It’s got monsters, magic, and moral quandaries aplenty. A timely reminder that when we get knocked down, what matters is that we get up again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Last November, whilst in London, I visited 221B Baker Street. Those with a keen intellect will recognize this address as none other than the residence of famous sleuth Sherlock Holmes! (Or, the Sherlock Holmes Museum!) I will be dedicating the month of January to my favorite museums - stay tuned!

It's gratuitous self-promo time! Peorders for my slick gothic thriller are open in all the usual places - so click through to find links, pics, and shenanigans from a middle-aged lady who took a roadtrip with a friend this one time, and then went home to write a book about it...

A magnificent #view on the island of Cap-aux-Meules, part of Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine, Quebec. The island's wide open spaces made for an unforgettable summer vacation in 2017.

Bringing a little holiday cheer into my house this week with this scarlet red Poinsettia. It shares the pot with a Kalanchoe (left) and a pretty Selaginella, which together remind me of a drift of snow. #Christmas 🌱

Thinking of Christmas shopping and holiday gifts? Considering a Kindle? If you know a reader who might enjoy a romantic caper/adventure with a retro feel (pre-cell phone era), I hope you'll give mine a try. All 3 are free on Kindle Unlimited. #books #reading #sweetromance #all -ages #AvalonBooks
