šSpring Greetings!š
Gosh, itās March already?? Spring is such a wonderful time of the year. The snow is just winding down, the crocuses are poking their little heads through the last of the snow, and the days are longer as a result of the time change in mid-March. Thatās when I start to plan our summer activities. How about you?

On the Writing Front
So, hereās some good news! Iām 39 pages away from writing āThe Endā on Diamonds in the Ruff. Iām extremely excited about that because it means the next storyāthe one Iāve been kicking around in my headācomes to fruition.
In Other News
As Iāve mentioned a gazillion times, Iāve been on the hunt for an agent and a new publisher because Montlake doesnāt publish cozy mysteries, so I want to assure you that I will write and publish a novella in the interim so youāre not waiting any longer.
On the Homefront
Who knew it would take this long to buy a used motorhome? Right now, the market is so good theyāre flying off the shelvesāin a manner of speaking. Anyway, we continue to live in our tiny apartment where weāre camping out on air mattressās, lawn furniture and a cute little cocktail table.Ā My purpose for telling you is that Iām going to start a blog solely dedicated to our journey since we closed on our home in July.
Weāve had some really funny things happen along our journey and several of my fans have begged me to do a blog. Iāll be posting the link when I put the first one up and hope youāll take the ride with me. Once we get on the road, Iāll be posting lots of pictures of where weāve been so that you can travel along with us. Eventually, Iāll add music that will be consistent with the characterization of where we went.
Other Good News
Guess what? My publisher has included Blind Retribution in the Swing into Spring sale for the entire month of March at $1.99. Ā What a bargain. If youāve already purchased your copy, tell your friendsāspread the word!!!
Also, under my Carolyn books, Montlake surprised me with an ongoing sale from $1.49 to $1.99. on the Chef’s Toque Romance series. These books include my very own killer recipes which Iāve made part of the story.Ā If you want to purchase the series, Amazon has done an amazing job of bundling them up for only $5.47.
