Today I'm back to Texas after a fast paced few days at the San Francisco Writer's Conference. It was a wonderful experience and very informative.

This weekend I'm attending the San Francisco Writer's Conference. Why? Well, it's SAN FRANCISCO, one of the most romantic cities in the country and it started on VALENTINE"S DAY. My brain said take the hubby, go to the conference and have a romantic weekend for two. Unfortunately, the daughter ended up with a sporting event [...]
Well, as a relative newbie to the publishing world, I was elated when my debut novel, Numbers Never Lie, was chose as Amazon's Daily Deal yesterday. I have no idea what led up to that but it was quite a gift. Since writing Numbers, I have written four other novels. Three of them are out, [...]
