Hey there, lovely reader, Unbelievably, I have been in the UK for nearly a month. I've been super busy sorting a few things out, dealing with manly men and their trucks and tools, clearing out a bunch, visiting long-time friends and indulging in some of my favourite...
Hey there, lovely reader, I'm sitting outside in the sun writing this. We're having our annual carpet cleaning and I'm staying out of the way. I always say that getting the carpets done is as much work as moving house. I exaggerate, but it's a lot of work to move all...
Hey there, lovely reader, Last month was a banner month for me, my most successful since I started writing nine years ago. It's very exciting for me to see so many people around the world discover Annabelle, Graham, Roxy, and Diana for the first time, especially in...
Hey there, lovely reader, I'm taking the week off writing and will start again on April 1st, but have a few announcements to make. If you celebrate Easter, I hope you eat as much chocolate as you wish (which may be none, of course – I prefer hot cross buns) and...

Hey there, lovely reader! How are those holiday preparations coming along? Our tree is now fully decorated and the Christmas wishlists came in right on time (no surprise there!) Today, I offer a peek behind the scenes and an announcement. Fun! Yesterday, I was...
Hey there, lovely reader! I went to the pictures last week to see Kenneth Branagh's A Haunting in Venice. I don't go to the movies that much. It's too loud. I am probably the only person who takes her earbuds with her, switches them to noise cancellation, and can...
Hey there, lovely people! It's a beautiful day here in Northern California. The skies are a deep, clear blue, the temperature is just right – not cold, but not energy-sapping hot, either. It truly feels like the dog days of summer and I'm here for it. I am...
Hey there! Thank you for all the well wishes, last week. I'm slowly returning to the land of the physically moving and fully cognizant, and starting to dip my toe in to the cool waters around Gorey Harbour again. Also thank you for the feedback on recent features. I...
