I love OCC. But I’ve been missing a lot of meetings lately for a variety of reasons, and am unsure about the upcoming one. Why? Family! My holiday season has been extended thanks to my son, d-i-l and grandsons coming in January for their celebration here in Southern California. Depending on their schedule while here, I might make the morning part of the OCC meeting but I won’t know till I’m on my way.

Meantime, I’ve got a couple of Feb. 1 deadlines so I’ll have to depend on naptime for time to work. Fortunately, I’m close enough that it shouldn’t be an issue… I hope!

I hope all of you had a wonderful holiday season and my fingers are crossed that you have a really Happy New Year! Why are my fingers crossed while I’m typing? In case you didn’t recall or didn’t know, I’m now writing Superstition Mysteries! I’m also writing for two Harlequin lines, Nocturne and Romantic Suspense, as well as another mystery series that starts this year in May, the Barkery and Biscuits mysteries.

Okay, enough about me. I’m looking forward to attending lots of OCC meetings this year as well as the California Dreamin’ Conference. Hope to see you at some or all of them!

A Break from Writing? Not Really.

What does a writer do between drafts of a story? Well, that depends.

I finished a first draft of my upcoming fourth story in my Shelter of Secrets series for Harlequin Romantic Suspense. It still needs some work, but it’s currently in the hands of my excellent beta reader.

I’ve had a fun few weeks–including my usual writing. Plus, I heard that the Dog Writers Association of America, of which I’m a member, was looking for humorous articles for their upcoming issue of RUFF DRAFTS, their publication, so I of course had to submit a short article about how my puppy keeps me from concentrating on my writing by insisting that I play fetch with her while I’m sitting at the computer. Humorous?

I recently got word that my next Alaska Untamed Mystery, CRY WOLF, number two in the series, is now scheduled for publication on November 7. I love the cover! And the series is the first in which I’ve taken a pseudonym: Lark O. Jensen.

It’s not my only remaining book this year. I was already aware that my Coltons of New York book for Harlequin Romantic Suspense is also a November release. CSI COLTON AND THE WITNESS is officially out on November 27.
