As I indicated in last month’s blog, I wasn’t able to attend the OCC Birthday Bash. Sounds as if it was lots of fun even without me–as I anticipated.

The family-related stuff I mentioned then as the reason I had to miss the party was enjoyable. It involved a short trip in which I got to visit six brick-and-mortar bookstores during a month that I had a new Superstition Mystery released–KNOCK ON WOOD. It was enjoyable stopping in and seeing which stores carried copies that I could sign, and leaving bookmarks at them all.

Now, it’s November, and the year is quickly drawing to an end. I’m happy to say I’m planning on attending this month’s OCC meeting. I’d love to hear both speakers and attend PAW in the morning, too. Guess I’ll have to make a choice for the morning, but I really love how the OCC meetings are so versatile and have something for everyone.

So, hope to see you there this month. Thanks, OCC!

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.
The Second Half of the Year Has Begun–Already!

July 6, 2023

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?
This Year Continues – Fun!

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.
