My stories inspire me to write them down. A wise person once told me: When you acquire the skill to put your thoughts on paper, you will have a complete life. I love what I do. I just released novel #44...OLD DOGS an' OLD ROADS, a southern noir mystery. I'm almost finished with #45, THE RETURN, a western. What fun.

Currently working on book #7 in my The Nations series. "Blue Water Woman" is a sequel to my just released "Lady Law", featuring Deputy US Marshal Fiona Miller.

Write, write, write, and then write some more.

Not sure what that is. Apparently never had it.

I was doing research on a character I had been writing about for four years, Bass Reeves, and I stumbled across the mention of a female Deputy US Marshal in the Indian Nations...The only female Deputy to work under Judge Isaac Parker (the Hanging Judge). No one has written about her.
The Fort Smith Elevator, in its November 6, 1891, issue described "Mrs. Miller…(as) a dashing brunette of charming manners…" The same article described Miller as "…expert shot and a superb horsewoman, and brave to the verge of recklessness. It was like turning a 12 year old into a candy store. I first added F.M. (Fiona Mae) Miller to one of my Bass Reeves novels, "BASS and the LADY", and then spun her off into her own book, "LADY LAW".
