About Me:
Hi! i'm and avid reader who likes to read as much as I like to write and appreciate all you talented writers' books. I live in rural Arkansas near Little Rock (about 40 mi.) and have books all over the net (at least it seems like it sometimes). My latest two are HC from Five Star: RECIPE FOR TROUBLE, a cozy mystery; and SPANISH EYES, a romance-suspense. A HC LP of SPANISH EYES will be out in November 2008 and there will be two new books coming out in 2009-a HC romance-suspense from Five Star and the first of my Maryvale seriles from another publisher (TR). Recognizing some names here gave me the nerve to silgn up, I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Interests:
Reading, writing, spending time with my grown children.
Now Reading:
Mean Fourteen (Evanovich)
Favorites
Place to Read:
Swing in the yard or couch in the house.
Authors:
Anyone who writes cozy mysteries and gives me a few laughs along the way including Evanovich, Joan Hess, I like the 'senior citizen things too-Befler and Hart's Henrie O.'
Books:
In the house to read now: Mummy Dearest-Joan Hess; Sail-James Patterson; Blessed is the Busybody-Emilie Richards (met her at a SinC conference in St. Louis); Death Rug Lord-Tamer Myers; and Hooked on Murder-Betty Hechtman - haven't read any of hers, I'm looking forward to it - looks interesting...
Characters:
Sheriffs and their families (like my Maryvale Sheriff Cas Larkin's wife Connie who is an avid matchmaker!)
