I’ve been tagged. I’ve managed to avoid if for a while, but bam, there it was a little note from friend and fellow author Maggie Nash that she’d been tagged and so she just had to spread the love. And who tagged Maggie? That would be Heather who was tagged by someone else. If you want to see how the list has changed, click here to view it on Heather’s blog.

Rules:
I am going to list three categories of books: 5 MUST Read Books, 5 Books on Your Nightstand, and 5 Look For These Soon.

I kid you not this is a true story.

I come home from vacation, rested and happy, when I noticed on the kitchen table an envelope. It is a 8×11 envelope I had been using to sendout my books to Newspapers for review. On the outside of the envelope someone has scratched out hte zip code and put a sticker over the envelope with the box for “Insufficient address” checked off. I notice that the book is missing inside. Only inside there is my letters with the press release and the cover page addressing the editor. I look to my … Read More »

I’m not going back to the States this summer, which means I’m so not loving life. Japan is hot and sticky in August. Add in three boys, an apartment the size of my parent’s living room (ok, so I’m exaggerating), well you get the picture. What’s made it bearable is Amazon. Not the US one, the Japanese one. They opened their doors a few years back and I parked myself at the front of the line. Whoever thought of putting books only a click away is a genius.

Now, if you prefer to visit the bookstore, I hear you. One … Read More »

In Wendy Roberts’ new Ghost Dusters mystery series, The Remains of the Dead, the person bereaved relatives can call to clean up after a homicide is Sadie Novak. Sadie is owner of Scene-2-Clean, one of Seattle’s two crime scene clean up companies. Her best friend doesn’t want to discuss it, her mother hopes it’s a phase, and it certainly puts a damper on dating when it comes to chit chat. For Sadie, though, it’s all about providing closure to the family left behind–and helping a few lost souls cross to the other side.

Five years ago, Sadie’s brother killed … Read More »

Okay, I wake up every morning and shlep out of bed. I am really the last person you want to talk to before I have had a morning cup of java.

I throw the switch on my handy dandy brewer, a cute little Mr. Coffee maker. I’m not into fancy beans or instant. I get a can of Chuck-Full-O-Nuts and heap in the spoonfuls, some water, sugar, milk and Coffee Mate (french vanilla).

Two minutes later I got a cup of hot Joe. The only hot Joe I get in the morning.

Now if I had a real life full … Read More »
