Hi Margaret! Thanks for dropping by!

I don't tend to blog about publishing-side aspects of my writing life on my blog. I do the best I can to aim it toward readers, and I don't think they'd be too interested in the ins and outs of promotion tasks. :-)

That is, detective pairings, whether professional or amateur.

Book Launch Week Is Here — Come to the Party!

[image error]I’m excited about launching my third novel, PATH INTO DARKNESS. I loved writing this novel. The idea for it had been simmering for awhile, and while writing it, I delved deep into some dark psychological territory. (Which I love, don’t get me wrong.) The story centers around a man named Nathan Tate, who is slowly losing his mind. Since I write a series, we also continue Detective Serg
