RELOCATION OF MY BLOG

Effective today, I will no longer be posting on this website. Instead, you can find my latest blog posts on my regular author website skkeogh.com. Read today’s post, To Use Dialect or Not to Use Dialect, about how I decided on the right balance of dialect for my African-American characters in The Driver’s Wife.

This site, however, will remain active as an archive for my previous articles.
