The author in me couldn’t resist a detour to Livraria Bertrand during our trip to Lisbon, Portugal. Established in 1732, this is the world’s oldest operating bookstore. They even have the Guinness plaque to prove it.

I took a break from writing my synopsis just in time to catch twilight on the river. #writingcommunity #amwriting #writersky #authorsky

Have you forgotten how to color outside the lines?
My friend @fycuriosity.com’s Make Bad Art course starts on January 20. It’s designed to help you stop contorting yourself to meet others’ expectations so you can connect with your creative self again. Check it out: fyc.quest/MBA

Robin Cook, MD, was one of my first inspirations to be an author. He’s still writing great books. Still inspiring me. Thanks, doctor! #writingcommunity #authorsky #booksky #thrillers

What a fun time defying gravity with my family! Our daughters are big #Wicked fans. I bet we will see this movie again.

It’s so hard to choose. Mine is 11/22/63 with an extra shout out to Misery (and others).

In line waiting to tailgate. Kind of like the end of Field of Dreams, only wet as hell. Oh, and no corn. #writingcommunity

Peter Benchley wrote Jaws in the winter months in Pennington, NJ, a few miles from my house, and in the summer months in Stonington, CT, about a million hours up I95. When I write outside, I listen for the muses that called to him (half of the time).
