Whether you're writing mystery, history, memoir, scripts or poetry at a push, why not add a giggle or two? I'm talking about humour in writing for the California Writers' Club. Click here for details. 

A week (and a bit) of launch events - all virtual - for A GINGERBREAD HOUSE (US). It's exactly the same book as A GINGERBREAD HOUSE (UK), but I'm expecting more emails asking what a shale bing is.

Criminal Minds - I might take up the matter of titles again. Ooohhh the luxury of it being my home blog, where I'm allowed to whine. But still probably shouldn't. Yeah, I'm not sure what I'll be talking about but definitely not titles.

Jungle Reds - clothes in books.

This was lovely. Ann, Tracey, and Kathy interviewed Christina Lane, the Edgar-award-winning author of PHANTOM LADY (factual), Esme Addison author of A SPELL FOR TROUBLE (debut) - the best Polish water-witch herbal-remedy murder mystery you will read all year, and me - with THE TURNING TIDE (historical).

Listen here

THE TURNING TIDE won the historical Lefty  (The Bruce Alexander memorial award) at the Unconvention. Congrautlations to all the nominees: Susanna Calkins, Dianne Freeman, Laurie King, Ann Parker, Jim Ziskin.
