A Winter's Tail

I'm excited to announce that the 4th installment in the Chrissy's Mysteries series is now available in hardback and paperback. Kindle edition comes out next week!

https://smile.amazon.com/Winters-Tail...

The energies of winter call for withdrawing into peaceful moments. This Christmas, I'll be spending a quiet day with my husband and two fur babies, watching holiday movies and reading. I have books piled next to my bed awaiting my attention, as well as all the volumes loaded in my Kindle.

It's been hard with a teething Shih Tzu puppy (Sophie) to read anything with an actual cover on it since she sees it as an invitation to play.

I hope your holidays are whatever you want them to be and wish you a beautiful New Year to come!

September Kindle Discounts Starting 9/6/22

Greetings!

I know it's been a while since we've connected. It's been a challenging year for us with my mother-in-law passing away and then my father a month later. We take one day at a time and speak of them often. There are so many reminders that trigger stories starting with "remember when your mom did this or remember when Dad did that?" I feel them smiling down upon us. 

Chiquita and Sophie are doing well. Chiquita is more active and lost almost 3 pounds. Sophie is full grown, with her birthday coming up next week. She's just under 9 pounds. They love going to restaurants (there are quite a few that allow pets for outdoor dining), the park, and shopping, always ready for a nap when they get home.

Yesterday, we went to Stroudfest in Stroudsburg, PA with lots of vendors, live music, and good food (thanks Willowtree Inn for a great, dog-friendly experience). While there, I went into Carroll and Carroll Booksellers, a reader's dream with books on shelves and piled on the floor, and purchased a copy of The Empty House and Other Ghost Stories by Algernon Blackwood. The pups had a great time. Most people brought their dogs to the festival with them. Sophie and Chiquita fell fast asleep on the way home.

I'm working on the fifth Chrissy's Mysteries, and it takes place in the Poconos, so the Stroudfest is likely to make an appearance!

To celebrate Sophie's birthday, the coming of autumn (my favorite season), and Halloween, we've discounted the Kindle editions of my dark fantasy, horror, and fall/Halloween installment of Chrissy the Shih Tzu Cozy Mysteries—Trick-or-Doggy-Treat. As the weather cools and the days get darker, there's nothing I like better than curling up in my big chair with the pups, a cup of lavender tea, and a good book. 

If you'd like to start at the beginning of Chrissy and Autumn's Journey, check out Attorney at Paw. Here's a recent review from The Book Commentary:

For those who prefer to listen, the first two books in the series are also on Audible: Attorney at Paw and The Dog-Eared Diary. We'll have the audiobook Trick-or-Treat before October 1st and will raffle off 5 copies. I'll keep you posted on that.

Mark your calendars for these great discounts and fill your fall reading list! Tell your friends, too.
