EIGHTY AND LOVING IT! #17

The holidays are officially here! I have been watching Hallmark movies all week last week. Christmas is the only time I watch Hallmark movies. I love any Christmas movie. I\’ve seen several good ones lately.

Honestly, I have had little time to watch television except at night. In 2012, I started a publishing company. About eighteen months ago, I sold most of the rights to the authors\’ books, except my own. In November, I gave the rights to the publisher who bought my company. We are now going back through the books and editing them to be published again.

I love to write and Scrivenings Press LLC gave a contract to me for my next book. It is being edited as we speak and will publish on November 5, 2022. Every time I sit down at the computer, I\’m grateful that God has not only spared my life this far, but has given me enough memory to write books. The title of the next book is Death by Doubloons. I will tell you more as time goes on. It is a fun Cozy Mystery.

You can find the books that are published on Amazon.com. So far, Coastal Promises and Bogged Down by Murder are available. Here\’s a little about both.
