This past weekend, we had a Ladies’ Night at church. I’ve been to a lot of these during my life, but this one was so good. My mind is till buzzing. I don’t talk about religion on my blog much, but I am so excited. If you don’t know me very well, you probably don’t …
Each fourth Sunday, we have a Pot Luck at church. You know, you cook and bring a dish. It’s always fun to see what everyone brings. I’m pretty simple, Poppyseed Chicken, corn, green beans, bread, and a dessert or a salad. February was my birthday, and I got to go to the head of the …
Each author has one or two things they hate about writing. Mine is correcting edits. I’ll be honest, I hate to correct edits. It began with some bad edits I received, some things I knew were wrong. Let’s talk about bad edits. Never ask your friend down the street, or a relative, to edit for …
Several years ago, Sandra Robbins and I were planning a writer’s retreat for authors. Sandra told me she wanted to invite a new author to join us. That new author was Patricia Bradley., and that week, Pat and I began a friendship. We’re still friends today, and I’m proud to introduce her newest book that …

My disclaimer. I do not believe in ghosts, but I cannot explain what happened at St. Simon’s Lighthouse in St. Simons, Georgia. My daughter and I love lighthouses. We were visiting St. Simons and went up to the top of the lighthouse. Neither of us believe in ghosts, but as we took each step on …
October is here, and I’ve been hard at work finishing Unlikely Candidate. This book has had a lot of titles since its conception. I started out with Madam President, and then there were several more changes. Finally, we have a cover and the title is staying. The theme will be, “Vote Maggie for President.” The …
I haven’t been on here in a while, and this is probably my last blog for several months. I’m working more on my newsletter and not the blog. Change is always difficult, but it’s time to do it. My new website should be up later this month. The list management I’ve been using is not …
The past month has been exciting. We welcomed a new little girl into our family, our first great-grandchild. Piper Jo was born March 11. She weighed in at 7 lbs and 2 oz. She was 21 inches long. What a blessing she is. I’m very excited about a new novel I’m writing. The working title …
