I always try to remember the advice I heard long ago — start as far into the story as you can. But once, with DANGER IN A RED DRESS, I started far into the story and kept having to go back and back and it turned out where I had originally started was about 100 pages into the book. I'm currently writing the fourth Virtue Falls suspense and I think I nailed the first chapter. But this is what keeps me enthralled with writing — it's always different and new and I never really know what I'm doing. Maybe someday…(less)

Vote on the WRONG ALIBI cover!

Let’s talk about book cover art for my upcoming book, WRONG ALIBI…

description

No! Don’t leave! It’ll be fun, I promise, and so much better than reading another scary article about the coronavirus or monster murder hornets. Right?

First, you might decide on the art by the book description:

A Daughter of Fair Verona by Christina Dodd
"3.75 stars
At first it was a bit too cheesy for me, but as I pushed through it grew on me. By the end I was tempted to pick up the next book right away. The narrative style and grammar takes some time to get used to, as the author is playing around wi" Read more of this review »
A Daughter of Fair Verona by Christina Dodd
"3.3/5- It was cute and a fun little time piece but I would have much more enjoyed a definitive end and resolution than a cliffhanger for a whole series. Overall, had some dull moments but a fun little mystery none the less!"
A Daughter of Fair Verona by Christina Dodd
"You know sometimes there are books that are just a vibe.

A Daughter of Fair Verona focuses on Rosaline, the daughter of the famous literary couple Romeo and Juliet who remains a spinster at the elderly age of 20. She is content with this life and avoi" Read more of this review »

Food history is an interest of mine (I like food.) 6 Glasses is well-written, interesting, a unique way to look at the history of beverages. It's not a book to be read all at once, and not to be read in a vacuum. It helps to have some sense of world ...more

“All I wanted was a man who could love and who loved me, who I could share my secrets with and know his.”
Christina Dodd, Virtue Falls

“For as long as I could remember, I had always been the girl who had watched her father kill her mother.”
Christina Dodd, Virtue Falls

“Elizabeth understood as she never had before. Everyone, all of them had lived secure in the belief that the earth was stable, unchanging, eternal.
Now no one could trust the ground beneath their feet.
Yes, the earthquake was the story of destruction, but not just of things. An earthquake destroyed security. It destroyed complacency. It changed the people who lived through it.”
Christina Dodd, Virtue Falls

“It was like living with a bad action movie, all excitement and motion, and no character development.”
Christina Dodd, Virtue Falls

“No matter how they fought they had always been like this: balanced between anger and passion, between hurt and glory.
When they first got together, she didn't understand how two people who had so little in common could be so madly, passionately in love.
When they split, she had realized madness and passion could never keep a couple together.”
Christina Dodd
