Luthier

What the heck is a LUTHIER? That was my question when my husband first told me he wanted to become one.  Huh? That was also when I was told – by him – that a luthier is a person who makes stringed instruments, traditionally stringed instruments made of wood. You know, guitars, violins, mandolins, banjos……

Heart Breaker

I love the story about the elderly Athabascan woman who was asked how to make moosehide moccasins.  Her reply?  “Well, first you kill a moose.” In other words, have a seat.  This is going to take a while. When I’m asked, “How do you write a novel?”  My answer is, “Well, first you break a heart.” And not just any…

Wild Word Fridays

Now that I’ve been blogging for a few months and am more comfortable with the concept and the process, I hope to establish a Friday feature that will highlight words.  It’s always fun to find new words, odd words, overused words, misused words…  This Friday’s wild word – words actually – are LADY and LORD. …

Rats!

Do you ever have one of those days? You know, an “oh rats!” day.  Usually I love Mondays.  That’s because I love my job, which is writing novels. I don’t write on the weekends, so Monday is my “Hooray! I-get-to-write-again” day.  But yesterday morning (a Monday), I read a blog and discovered that the agent who has my…

August Free Books!

I hope your summer has been filled with sunshine and maybe a few great beach reads (and time to read them!).  To qualify for this month’s drawing, please let us know what book you read during your vacation time (or would’ve read if you had vacation time!).  Summers are always a hectic but fun time…
