I picked up a craft book recently, Matt Bird’s, The Secrets of Story where he states that a hero must go into the story with a ‘flawed philosophy’. And throughout his or her journey, change will come from fixing that flaw. It made me think about my ‘flawed...
Let me catch you up…
Happy Friday! I realized I hadn't written a blog post on all the exciting upcoming releases scheduled. I know readers are choosy about what they will read and want to invest their time in an author who will not leave them hanging. My first Darling Cove book Must Love...
Author Spotlight- Jennifer Wilck and review of her new release, “Five Minutes to Love”
Last summer I had the pleasure of getting to know Jennifer during another book release of hers. She’s a fellow member of the Romance Writers of America, New Jersey Chapter. I’ve met so many great writers from that chapter and Jennifer is one of them. I’m proud to...
Happy New Year!
I said goodbye to 2017, long before midnight on December 31st. Perhaps, it was even weeks before that. If you've been 'following' me, you know 2017 was both a great and horrible year. Which makes me eager for 2018. In my Long Island RWA chapter last January, we were...
Merry Christmas from Darling Cove!

There’s Still A Stigma Y’All…

Blatant, shameful, bloated, self promoting plug- March 2017
A logo idea I'm toying with. Thoughts? So, it's been a little more than a month without Zoe. For those who have pulled my husband aside and whispered, "How's she doing?", I'd like to report, I'm doing okay. So is Harley. Me being home has made a big difference and...
The Good, the Bad, the Ugly Month-February 2017
Welcome back to my blog! I have two very important announcements to make. The feature image above oddly represents both perfectly. I'll start with the sad news... On February 16th, we lost Zoe. As you know from the previous post, one of the drivers of leaving my...
The Jubilee Blog- January 2017
Welcome to 2017. This year I want to blog not just about my writing, but about the journey I will take during this very “crucial” year for me. When Queen Elizabeth celebrated sixty years on the throne, it was called a Jubilee Celebration. And no I’m not sixty! If you...
